蒙特利尔召会周末成全报导
为着上周末在Montreal的成全训练,我们何等感谢主!余弟兄和段弟兄也从新泽西过来和我们相调并扶持这个训练。整个训练一共有三堂信息,周六两堂,主日一堂。第一堂信息的主题是“圣经中最大的预言—基督的身体得以建造起来”。这一堂信息的负担在于奉献。有很多年轻的圣徒站起来,公开地奉献。而后,许多的家庭,包括这些年轻圣徒的父母和孩子,也再一次站出来见证以及奉献。这样的场面实在感人。我们收到了32份填写完整并签名的奉献单,其中有很多包括非常详细的奉献内容。
第二堂交通的内容是家,负担是鼓励圣徒打开家,邀请人来一起读经、吃饭并相调。我们收到了27份英语、法语圣徒的开家奉献单,和19份华语圣徒的奉献单。看到这么多圣徒有打开家的负担,我深信主会切实地引领我们走神命定之路。
第三堂信息是“基督升上高处,掳掠了被掳的—得胜福音的传扬”,负担是鼓励圣徒作传福音的人。主日这一天共有150人参加聚会,所以这一堂的信息是华语和英语分开进行,大体上英语部分有80-85位圣徒,华语有65-70位圣徒。圣徒们也交通了非常激励人的见证。赞美主!
这次的成全训练非常及时,鼓励圣徒们共同进入McGill和Concordia为期两周的福音行动的负担里。在9月1-8号,我们在McGill和Concordia两地都有福音和圣经发放的行动。以下是简单的结果报告:
共发放圣经185本,其中McGill 发放21本英文圣经,Concordia发放164本圣经,包括137本英文,27本法文;
希望继续接触的有61人(55位说英语,6位讲法语),来自McGill的是7位英语的福音朋友,来自Concordia的是48位英语,6位法语的朋友;
35位愿意和我们一同读圣经,6位来自McGill,29位来自Concordia;
另有12位新人参加了Concordia的研讨会。
我深信主正在带领Montreal的圣徒们继续地向前!感谢赞美主!
We praise the Lord for the perfecting meeting in the past weekend in Montreal. Brothers Yu and Duan came from New Jersey to help and blend with us. We have three sessions in total: two on Saturday and one on the Lord's Day. Session one title is "The Greatest Prophecy in the Bible — the Building Up of the Body of Christ". The burden is consecration.There were many young saints who stood up to declare their consecration in public and then many families, the parents of these saints and their children also stood up again to testify and consecrate. It was very moving. We received32 consecration sheets. Many of them wrote very specific things to be consecrated to the Lord.
Session 2 was on home and the burden was to encourage the saints to open their homes and to invite people to read the Bible together, eating and blending together. We received 27 consecration sheets.checked from the English and French speaking saints and 19 sheets from the Chinese speaking saints. With so many saints having burden to open their homes,I trust the Lord will lead us to practice the God Ordained Way in a real way.
Message 3 was on "Christ Ascending to the Height and Leading Captive Those Taken Captive —Proclaiming the Gospel of Victory". The burden is to encourage the saints to be a gospel preaching person. On Lord's Day the total attendance was 150 and the message was given separately in English and Chinese. The split was roughly about 80-85 E / 65-70C. Testimonies were given and it was very encouraging. Praise the Lord!
This perfecting training is timely for these two weeks of gospel activities in McGill and Concordia to encourage the saints to participate in these activities. We had 3 days gospel and Bible distribution in McGill and Concordia separately from September 1 to 8. The statistics is shown below:
