西岸挑戰: 植堂的首要任務
胡達得—教會植堂統籌 當我審視我們區會植堂的情景 時,我重新意識到撒種有時、收 割有時。我們正在收割其他人在 我們以先已撒開的種。我們今天 所撒的就是我們未來的年日裡要 收割的。作為這篇文字的一個讀 者,你在所處的各個“空間” 裡,你在言語、態度、及行為方 面撒播了什麼? 植堂並非開創一個新的機構,它 是關於接觸社群中的未得之民, 因此我們必須用愛心去撒種。要 得著未得之民必須是我們決策裡 的首要任務(哥林多前書15)。 我們的願景是區會裡有150間教 會,因此我們必須培植倍增這願景。這願景比任何一間教會或個 人都大,所以我們必須培植一個 合作的精神。由於資源有限,因 此我們必須培養一個慷慨的態 度。要作的工艱鉅,因此我們必 須忍耐和堅毅地作工。 聽到了年青的植堂教會的夢想和 願景,我備受鼓舞。他們計劃要 在以下地區植堂:高貴林、本拿 比、新西敏士特、列治文、直至 河谷並溫哥華島。 但真正的喜樂是來自去週的幾項 報告。 一個經常被一群禱告勇士提名記…
