Betty「耶穌愛華埠」後感 - Betty Chan

感謝神,正當我猶疑不定,不知是否參加紐約短宣體驗行之時。神在一次三人禱告中,被姊妹的祈禱,激勵及確定了我最後的選擇。將自己視為不足,難以突破許多在生活上的盲點,完全放下仰望在神的掌管中。因為知道當我盡己力時,神會引領前路「我心裏多憂多疑,袮安慰我,就使我喜樂」詩94:19

再者,在短宣足有三年,若不將學習,裝備和經驗作身體力行的考驗,還待何時呢?

以下是 紐約 「耶穌愛華埠」個人的經歷:

大會配搭佈道夥伴二或三人一組。分別上下午佈道時段。地區包括食店,地鐵,公園,街頭派報,家庭探訪。更有露天公園晚上佈道,是我第一次經歷到晚上佈道。

牧師和義工隊帶領一群天真爛漫的小孩,他們坐在地上,陶醉在音樂歌聲裏,鼓掌跳舞。難能可貴是見到他們熱愛背誦聖經金句的喜樂。年青的一群,有打羽毛球,排球,跳繩。成年人在不同角落,隨著音樂起舞。年長者看顧小寶寶或剛學走路孫兒們。短宣隊弟兄姊妹便在人群中找福音對象。

我接觸到一位約 30 多歲,從廣州來美國已有 7 年之久,很友善的女士。談話中,她樂意與我分享她的家庭背景,工作情況,兒子教育等等。雖然她沒有立刻決志信主,但亦沒有拒絕單張,真理報。在餐店裡遇到一位中年女士。一開始很不願意交談, 因為她曾被一位基督徒朋友傷害過,使她在金錢上有損失。但聖靈在她心裏動工。她不但側耳聆聽我們向坐在她旁邊的另一個對象傳福音,最後, 她更願意接受我們為她禱告。「因為神賜給我們不是膽怯的心, 乃是剛強,仁愛,謹守的心。」提後1:7

這次紐約七天短宣佈道過程中,雖然每天佈道擺上的時間較長,但經歷神的同在也是同樣的多。從神所賜每天的健康,充足的體力,喜樂,平安是筆墨難以形容的。

最後,確知,確信,確定神是愛每一個角落之華埠的同胞。多倫多也不例外。希望「耶穌愛華埠」這事工也能在多倫多推動。讓基督徒們能親眼目睹及經歷「耶穌愛華埠」這一幅美麗的圖畫!「這天國的福音要傳遍天下,對萬民作見證,然後未期才來到。」太 24: 14



Grace紐約短宣分享 - Grace Tang

感謝神賜給我機會,到美國紐約參加 2013 年的「耶穌愛華埠」。可以和一群來自不同教會的弟兄姊妹,一起同心在紐約唐人街傳福音,為主作見証。

每天早上,我們一起靈修、學習、接受佈道訓練,與及到不同的地點傳福音。我們分別到不同的食肆、商鋪、公園、地鐵,派發真理報,福音單張和作個人佈道。我們穿著同一營恤,祈禱後兩個兩個出發,為主作工。每天我們都有佈道後的分享,互相勉勵分享喜悅。

在今次的短宣行程,最令我難忘的是「羅斯福公園露天佈道會」。晚上我們在公園舉辦兒童及成人佈道會,成人晚會有詩歌、電影、和見証分享。這是我第一次參與露天佈道會,那裏有很多華人,有成年人、小孩子和老年人。他們大多是說福州話,也有說台山話及廣東話,也能操普通話。他們聚在一起閒話家常,有些人做運動,小孩子跑來跑去,十分熱鬧。

我們邀請小孩子參加兒童節目,他們一排一排坐在地上,等待唱歌、說故事和玩遊戲。看見他們跟著音樂唱歌、跳舞、十分可愛。使我想起(可10:14)耶穌說:「讓小孩子到我這裏來... 因為在神國的,正是這樣的人。」

我在公園看到一個吸煙的中年男仕,面帶憂愁坐在一旁。於是我上前向他佈道,給他講解耶穌的救恩。他問我信耶穌是否有飯吃!我說「信耶穌得永生!你要認識神就得平安,福氣也必臨到你。(伯22:21)神賜福給你,讓你有健康的身體和工作的能力,就有飯吃。」

他與我分享家庭的重擔和難處。我告訴他: 「應當一無掛慮,只要凡事藉著禱告,祈求和感謝,將你們所要的告訴神。神所賜出人意外的平安,必在基督耶穌裏,保守你們的心懷意念。」(腓4:6-7)耶穌說:「凡勞苦擔重擔的人,可以到我這裏來,我就使你們得安息。」(太11:28)所以我們要把重擔交給神。

我和他一起禱告,求神賜福給他,賜他平安及力量,面對生活的困難。禱告後他展示笑容,我說你終於笑啦!感謝神垂聽我們的禱告!神賜給人平安喜樂。雖然他沒有決志信耶穌,但他不再憂愁。感謝神!神是信實憐憫的!榮耀歸神!
