「耶穌愛華埠」英文組分享

剛於 3 月 13 日大家已撥快了一個鐘頭,亦即踏入了夏令時間,曰長夜短。我喜歡夏天放工回家路上,仍能看到大個太陽照耀著不同色彩的晚霞,不像冬天踏出公司已漆黑一片,只有寒冷,大家亦匆忙地回家。

夏天將至,每年一度耶穌愛華埠亦踏入第十個年頭。今年我們首次分開英文組(7月15-17日)和中文組(7月18-24日)的日期,盼能更集中人力和資源,讓一些能講雙語的牧者和弟兄姊妹能在週末一起參加。

以下是上年一位新參加者對「耶穌愛華埠」英文組的感受。盼能有更多弟兄姊妹,不畏語言和文化障礙,擴張我們傳福音的領域。

Tom Mammen from Blauvelt, NY

There are two things on earth that are eternal, the Word of God and the souls of people. Going to Jesus Loves Chinatown event last year for the first time really has helped me to focus on the things that matter and it has equipped me to make an eternal impact to advance the Kingdom of God.

Through the excellent teaching on evangelism provided by Pastor Andrew Rappaport, we learned how to share our faith, we learned how to handle objections and the people that make them, and we learned how to overcome communication barriers that make the presentation of the Gospel difficult through different methods such as using humor when talking to people.

Some of the biggest reasons people do not share their faith today is because they don't know how, afraid of rejection, or they don't feel they have the burden to reach the lost. If this is you, I highly encourage you to come to Jesus loves Chinatown event this year where you will be able to learn how to give away your faith, overcome fear of rejection and be bold for Christ, and you also will be able to gain a greater motivation and desire to reach the lost.

What I have learned at the event last year at the Jesus Loves China town event has helped to share the gospel on a daily basis with people in my home, church, work, and community. This is not an event you would want to miss!"

"As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work." John 9:4

「趁著白晝,我們必須做那派我來者的工作;黑夜就要到了!那時候就沒有人能做工了。」約翰福音9:4!


婚姻家庭研討會與諮詢

身處於一個充滿哀傷、失落及關係破裂的世界,我們如何以基督的愛去關心身邊或社區有需要的未信主者?讓他們感受到耶穌基督賜予生命和盼望信息的真實?我們相信人在經歷痛苦與艱難時,是最願意尋求改變的時機。
