Education Programs EP - NETCA is concerned for how newer generations of Taiwanese and foreigners understand the biblical and principles and practices therefore we have two ongoing programs that work in tandem with each other ensure that newer generations are hearing clearly these principles and presented with opportunities to practice them. The first of the two programs is called Taiwan Bible and Language Institute or TBLI. This is mostly training in what the principals of God are through gathering together and studying the Bible very deeply. This program does offer some limited hands on training whereby participants are challenged to put into practice what they are learning in the gatherings. The second of the two programs is called the Mission Involvement Program or MIP where by all training is practical. Participants are welcomed to join sophisticated mission programs that NETCA has developed over the years and serve God and others in these programs. So together these two programs teach righteousness holiness moral character faith hope and love of God and neighbor. Lastly The TBLI program also hosted 10 married couples for a 24 hour marriage conference whereby the couples had four marriage classes stayed overnight in a hotel and was served three meals and a coffee break. The end result was that these married couples were taught biblical marriage principals designed to promote a spiritually and physical healthy marriage which contributes to the spiritual health of children and a community and a nation. These two programs including the marriage conference received $29,308.00 in revenue and had expenses of $38,333.00 in 2024.

Church Planting Program CPP - Considered the core program of NETCAs mission our CPP has started and sustains three church locations in northeastern Taiwan. They are located in Aodi Fulong and Dasi villages. When we gather in the churches we sing uplifting and life changing praise and worship songs to Jesus Christ and teach and preach biblical narratives from a Christian world view with practical application pointing everyone to Jesus Christ as the Savior of mankind and sanctifier of our souls. We also teach that love for God and people through post salvation good works and community service benefits all. Expenses for sustaining CPP throughout the year include facility rentals repairs maintenance Utilities WIFI audio video equipment purchases maintenance teaching supplies printed materials postage non-edible consumables banking fees decorations food snacks drinks honorariums stipends benevolence gifts donations and other smaller disbursements. About 50% revenue derives from local anonymous donors within the churches. While the other 50% is donated by people living outside of Taiwan.

NEW LIFE Program NL - NETCA hosts Easter Thanksgiving and Christmas events each year under the NEW LIFE program. These events were hosted in parks schools and churches.
