一﹑本週經文Scriptures: 使徒行傳11:21-23 Acts
21主與他們同在,信而歸主的人就很多了。22這風聲傳到耶路撒冷教會人的耳中,他們就打發巴拿巴出去,走到安提阿為止。23他到了那裡,看見神所賜的恩就歡喜,勸勉眾人,立定心志,恆久靠主。
21 The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.
22 News of this reached the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23 When he arrived and saw what the grace of God had done, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts.

二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1. 為法國禱告:法國充斥著相對主義思想,許多人對福音漠不關心,抗拒絕對的真理。然而,受到後現代主義思想的影響,國民的虛空感和存在行焦慮也不斷增強,因此福音派基督徒和教會的數目正在逐漸增加。求主用真理喚醒法國的靈魂,使他們找回生命的意義和真正的平安。
Pray for France. France is full of relativism, many people are indifferent to the gospel, and resist the truth. However, under the influence of postmodernism, the national sense of emptiness and existential anxiety is also increasing, so the number of evangelical Christians and churches is gradually increasing. May the Lord use the truth to awaken the souls of France, so that they can find the meaning of life and true peace.
2.為短宣隊禱告:為7/30-8/4參與El Cajon短宣的弟兄姊妹禱告,求神保守他們身體健康,求神合一的靈充滿他們,同心合意向當地的穆斯林社區見證主耶穌。
Pray for the short-term mission team. Pray for the brothers and sisters who participated in the El Cajon STM from 7/30-8/4, and ask God to keep them healthy, and ask God’s spirit of unity to fill them, and to witness the Lord Jesus to the local Muslim community with one heart.
3. 為8月教會的家庭月禱告: 8月有關於家庭主題的聯合主日學,主日崇拜和父母學堂(8/20)。禱告神使用講者教導如何用聖經的原則建立家庭,弟兄姊妹的家庭可以藉著彼此相愛的關係彰顯神的榮耀,為主做見證。
Pray for family month at church in August. In August there is a joint Sunday school on family themes, Sunday worship and parent workshop (8/20). Pray that God will use the speakers to teach how to build a family with the principles of the Bible, so that families of brothers and sisters can demonstrate the glory of God and testify for the Lord through a loving relationship.
4. 為肢體禱告:為身體欠安的弟兄姊妹禱告,求神醫治他們恢復身心靈的健康。
