Taiwan Mission Zhu Dong Church 台灣短宣-竹東教會(二)

第四天- 07/23/09 (Thursday)

We now only have one more day with these amazing children. The time is much
too short. Before continuing on, we need to first ask for prayers for Esther
Lai and Scott Williams. Esther has caught the flu and lost her voice.
Scott is not feeling well and all we can determine for the moment is that
he is having a hard time adjusting to all the various things here at the
same time: Hot, humid weather, time changes, a new diet, and perhaps playing
too hard with the kids after the VBS program. Pray for both of them because
they have been such important members of our team and we really want to
see them up to 100%, both to bring joy to the children and so that they
too can have joy from their service here.


只剩一天和這些令人驚嘆的孩子相處。時間實在是太短了﹗在說下去之前﹐ 我們要
先為黎師母和史考克禱告。黎師母感冒失聲。至於史考克﹐ 我們都認為他一下子很
難適應所有新事物﹕悶熱的天氣﹐時差﹐食物﹐與可能在夏令營下課之後﹐和小朋
友玩得太累了。
請為我們禱告﹕因為黎師母和史考克是我們短宣隊的重要成員﹐ 他們百分之百的康
復﹐不但能帶給孩子歡樂﹐也會讓他們從服事中得到快樂。




We began talking about next week's plan with the junior high students.
The last revision to the numbers was 160 students, which is certainly still
beyond comprehension. Between us and the EMei church helpers, we have the
right numbers to make classes of 20, but are we the right team to lead this

group? We really need your prayers for this as we don't want individual
classes to break down while others succeed and this job is looking to be
more than we had originally anticipated. Some of our helpers don't know
Chinese, while the EMei helpers don't know English making it impractical
to form certain pairs to lead a class. Our God is faithful and can do amazing
things, so we must seek Him for this.



我們開始討論下星期要教國中生的事情。最新的人數更正是160名學生﹐遠超過我們
的理解。短宣隊再加上峨眉教會的義工﹐剛好可編排一班20人的學生。可是﹐短宣
隊適合帶領這個組嗎﹖我們非常需要你們的禱告﹐這項工作超乎我們的預料﹐而且
不希望看到有的班級做得好﹐有的班級搞砸了。有的短宣隊員不懂中文﹐有的峨眉
教會的義工不會英文﹐造成有些配對是不切實際的。我們必須尋求神的指引﹐因為
神是信實的﹐能做令人難以置信的美好事情。



Here are some more pictures from our adventures here showing our various
groups. We had a very smooth time today with the teaching.

今日的教學非常順利﹐並請觀賞各組的圖片。
