Fund Raising Letter 短宣籌款

March 6, 2008
敬啟者：您好！

我很興奮想與您分享一個與我們教會的短宣隊，透過亞洲短宣來一同經歷神的恩典的機會。
I would like to share with you the short term mission team of our church, how it helped us to experience His grace through our mission trips to Asia.


我們前四年所經歷的恩典足以印證神的手在我們當中所帶領的道路。從開始的單一形式的服事，到現在的多個地點的接觸與嘗試。從北歐到東亞，從台灣到大陸，從大陸到中亞，從海外進國內，從向民間宗教到無神論者，從向佛教徒到向回教徒，從教會到學校，從城市到鄉村，從富裕到貧窮，監獄到戒毒所，從沿海到內陸等。我們實在是看見神的大能在我們這些軟弱及不配的人身上，為祂打那美好的仗。
In the past four years, we can testify the grace of God among us throughout our mission journey. It transformed from one location to multiple locations. From Northern Europe to East Asia, from Taiwan to Mainland China, from China to Central Asia, from the coast to the inland, from folk religion to atheist, from the Buddhists to the Islam, from the churches to the schools, from the rich to the poor, from the prisons the drug rehabilitation centers, from the coast to the inland. We can see the power of God work among the weak and battle for His kingdom.


感謝主！今年我們有約十五至二十人參與短宣。今年短宣分成兩大版塊、三個重點：一是以中國山西太原為主，建立一個為神作美好見證及服事的基礎；二是以中亞吉爾吉斯坦為嘗試，摸索神的心意，開拓向回教徒傳福音的道路；三是以台灣東北部宜蘭壯圍為基地，以台中大甲為創新的宣教策略。
Praise the Lord! This year our mission team will have 15-20 people. We will divide the mission group into two teams with three purposes: First, we will go to Xiangzu Taiyen,trying to establish a base for future ministry. Second, we will travel to Kyrgyzstan, and seaching for the will of God and explore the possibility of minister to the Islam. Thirdly, we will travel to the Northeast of Taiwan, minister to the people at Yilan, we will also travel to Taichung and minister to Dachi.



其中，五月中旬至六月初，我們將以山西及吉爾吉斯坦為我們的宣教日程。六月上旬，我們將會完成在大甲的行程。順便講一下：大甲的日南教會是一間新建立的教會，這其中還與我們前年去短宣，在那裡傳福音有直接的關聯。我們此行的目的之一，就是去堅固他們的信心。最後，就是6/11 – 6/19以青少年為主的壯圍團的行程了。
From mid May to early June, we will be at Xiangxi and Kyrgyzstan. At the beginning of June we will finish our Daichi journey. Daichi’s YeeNang church is a new church, it was the fruit of our mission trip back in 2006. One of the purpose of this trip is to strengthen their faith. Lastly, from 6/11 to 6/19 is our Chuanwai ministry which will be emphasized on the youth there.


從年初到六月，我們勤奮的準備5/13-6/19為期一個多月的短宣。神已為短宣隊在山西、別什凱克、大甲及宜蘭開了門，在公、私立學校舉辦美語營，同時去鼓勵當地的基層教會，及進入各個不同的企業及部門。From the beginning of this year to June, we will be preparing for this month long mission trip. God had opened many doors at Xiangxi, Bishkek,Daichi and Yilan. We will conduct English classes at private and public school, at the same time, we will encourage the local church, and try to reach different businesses.


整個短宣費用約$33,000。我們相信神必供應我們的需要！我們也深信凡在祂宣教的事上奉獻的人有福了，因為他們是貼近主的心！我們請您用以下的方式來支持這次的宣教：
