主在非洲的行动 – 七月份通讯(补充版)

简介本期将交通衣索比亚圣徒为着召会生活成全下一代之工作,以及在衣索比亚和肯亚的书报服事。

在衣索比亚的校园工作

赞美主 在衣索比亚多所校园中,预备了 许多寻求祂的年轻人。在 2019 年 6 月举 办的全国大专特会,有超过两千位年青 人参加;自这次特会之后,藉由社群媒 体我们接触超过三千位高中和大专生。 他们当中有许多人正享受这份职事的丰 富,其中一些每周至少两次来在一起祷 告并追 求主话。 因疫情与政治局势不稳的影响,我们受 了很大的限制,不能轻易探望住在阿迪 斯阿贝巴 (Addis Ababa) 之外的学生。

但主也开了一条出路,使我们得以举办小规模的学生训练。赞 美主 ! 今年 5 月和 6 月举办了两次「认识生命与召会」训练, 分别有 150 位和 200 位学生参与。 7 月也会继续有第三梯次 150 人的训练。 8 月则有另一场为着 500 位来自 25 个城镇的大专、 青职圣徒成全。我们希望有同工能够到现场参与这次的成全训 练,我们也会为那些不能实体参与的同工安排在缐上交通。我 们相信这样的训练能豫备这些青年人,将来能 参加全时间训练。 在阿迪斯阿贝巴,我们稳定举行大专生聚会,学生与服事者相 调在一起,用餐,唱诗,彼此分享对职事的摸着。疫情期间, 一些大专生从其他城镇回到在阿迪斯阿贝巴的家中远距上课。 这些大专生聚集大大供应这些学生们。我们能见证, 主正在成 全这些学生,当他们回到校园的时候,能够成为流通的管道。 感谢主 借着这样的牧养,其中有两位学生目前正参加全时间训练。他们当中有一些也快将毕业,求 主带领更多的毕业生参加全时间训练。

衣索比亚的儿童、青少年工作

在 2007 年,藉由海外圣徒的到访,我们开始关注儿童、青少年工作,并在主日有青少年聚集。但由 于场地的限制和缺乏对服事者的成全,在 2013 年我们暂停了这项服事。 2018 年,一班姊妹们承接 托付,在圣徒家中再次开始了儿童及青少年服事,但又因疫情被迫暂停。当疫情的限制续渐放松,我 们也立即恢复青少年聚会 (12-18 岁 ),一同唱诗、读经、追求书报;青少年们从读经和背经中得着莫 大的帮助。会后,青少年们更是一同相调,享用点心。

疫情期间,因着使用线上会议平台,使青少年们能够与 欧洲、台湾及马来西亚的青少年一同相调:包括2020 年 欧洲青少年特会,及今年与台湾、马来西亚的青少年的 相调会议。阿迪斯阿贝巴约45 位的青少年们,借着与来 自不同地区、国家的青少年们相调,大得鼓励。 在这段期间,我们召聚了在阿迪斯阿贝巴其中一个小区 的姊妹们,帮助她们来在一起祷告交通各项的服事,包 含儿童和青少年服事。我们的负担是在阿迪斯阿贝巴的 四个区都实行这样的祷告和服事交通。姊妹们也有负担,盼望儿童服事能够照顾到所有的年龄层。 最近同工们有负担加强在非洲的儿童和青少年工作。感谢主,弟兄们计画为父母和服事者提供训练, 并刚在6 月19 至20 号就如何培育下一代,为着全非洲有负担的家长和服事者举行了一次特会。请为 在非洲的儿童家长和服事者祷告,求主加强他们,能够合式地培育下一代。

衣索匹亚和肯亚的文字服事

衣索匹亚真理印刷发行(Amana Ethiopia Printing and Publishing PLC)

为了这分职事的传布,衣索匹亚真理印刷出版 机构已开始运作,目前正与水流职事站安排职 事书报之翻译和印刷的版权许可。与此同时, 我们也制作影片,在衣索匹亚和东非介绍这分 职事。 为此,我们成立了三个不同的脸书专页,分享各书报中不同的信息,如:《正常的基督徒生活》、《十 二篮》和《约翰福音生命读经》,帮助浏览的人在每日的生活中认识真理并经历真理。专页上也发布 了45 个英语短片,以及39 个用衣索匹亚的其中两种语言制作的影片。在短时间内,已有六千三百人 追踪,并收到超过两百位来自衣索匹亚各城市的人联系。因着这许多敞开且渴慕真理的人联系我们, 寻求有更多的交通,这迫使我们开始了一个为期三十天的课程 -「神完整的救恩」。最近已经完成了 这些信息的翻译 (阿姆哈拉语),并且正着手这些信息的录音。我们打算使用这些信息和录音作为材 料,餧养这些联系我们的寻求者。

肯亚高峰真理出版有限公司(High Peak Truths Publishers Kenya Limited)

为了在肯亚的福音传扬,弟兄们注册了一间公司 –「肯亚高峰真理出版有限公司」。这公司主要为着 在肯亚接收并分送职事书报作先锋的工作。我们领受托付,要接触失丧的罪人,所以我们计画每个月 分送三千份福音小册子。此外,我们也开始着手将诗歌翻译成史瓦希利语。目前已经完成不同主题中 的九十五首诗歌翻译。我们的目标是在今年底完成两百首诗歌的翻译。我们所翻译完成的诗歌目前仍 在编辑较对的阶段。这些翻译成史瓦希利语的诗歌将在召会聚集中使用,尤其是在乡间,圣徒们聚集 喜欢使用史瓦希利语来交通和唱诗。

来自印尼众召会的交通

新冠肺炎疫情提醒我们人类生存的脆弱和不确定性,同时也让我们有机会进入基督身体实际的实行应用。

截至 2021 年 7 月 10 日,印尼新冠肺炎确诊病例近 250 万例,新增病例超过 3.5 万例。在过去两个月里,我们同全国各地一样,对事态的迅速变化感到震惊,我们帮助了数百名感染病毒的圣徒获得有限的药品、医院床位和及时的医疗。

到今天为止,我们的 850 多名圣徒、他们的家人和福音接触者—— 大部分在雅加达——已经被感染。8 位圣徒去世,150 多人康复。当我们正在经历那些失去亲人的悲伤和担心那些正在生病的时候, 我们也见证了众召会间更加热切的交通和祷告,和圣徒们无私地照顾那些生病的人。

在实际工作中,服事者们每天与各地的圣徒协调,帮助感染者寻找药品和治疗资源。众召会的领导弟兄也呼召众圣徒,叫他们在盼望中喜乐,在患难中忍耐,在祷告中坚定持续,彼此牧养。我们相信透过这次大流行,我们可以活出彼此相爱,让基督在我们心中安 家,召会就会有一个实质的身体的彰显,传播福音和真理。

我们虽多,在基督里仍是一个身体,身体肢体的受苦,就是我们的受苦。这场大流行提醒我们,除非每个人都安全,否则没有人是安全的,我们的召会生活也是如此。我们希望全世界的召会都能与我们一同祷告。请为所有感染了病毒的圣徒的安全祷告,为病毒的传播被控制、为圣徒的内心得到坚固、为主得着祂所要的而祷告。

在雅加达召会的弟兄们
代表印度尼西亚众召会
