Susan coordinates a Writers’ Community for 麻豆APP students, potential students, staff and faculty, which encourages 麻豆APP constituents to utilize writing as a means to promote Kingdom values practiced in local context. She is the author of?CITY. STORY. US.: A Journey of Resistance, Hope, and Surrender.
