一﹑本週經文Scriptures: 約翰福音15:7 John、哥林多前書2:12-15 1 Corinthians
7你們若常在我裡面，我的話也常在你們裡面。凡你們所願意的，祈求，就給你們成就。
7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
12我們所領受的，並不是世上的靈，乃是從神來的靈，叫我們能知道神開恩賜給我們的事。13並且我們講說這些事，不是用人智慧所指教的言語，乃是用聖靈所指教的言語，將屬靈的話，解釋屬靈的事。14 然而屬血氣的人不領會神聖靈的事，反倒以為愚拙，並且不能知道，因為這些事惟有屬靈的人才能看透。15屬靈的人能看透萬事，卻沒有一人能看透了他。
12 What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words. 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 15 The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments.
二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1. 為越南禱告：越南是逼迫基督教的國家之一，但在不久之前，越南舉行了大規模的佈道聚會，與會人數超過四萬人，其中有四千三百多人接受耶穌。越南的家庭教會總是受到政府的監控，基督徒也在社會中遭受各種差別待遇，求主堅固決志者的信心，使關乎生命的福音在越南全地興旺起來。
Pray for Vietnam. Vietnam is one of the countries that persecute Christians, but not long ago, Vietnam held a large-scale evangelistic gathering with over 40,000 attendees, of which more than 4,300 people accepted Jesus. Family churches in Vietnam are always under government surveillance, and Christians are treated differently in society. May the Lord strengthen the faith of those who are determined and make the life-giving gospel flourish throughout Vietnam.
2.為全人更新營及即將開始的幸福小組禱告：九月8-9將舉行「全人更新營」，求神帶領參與的弟兄姐妹透過「全新營」生命再次經歷聖靈的更新，得到醫治與釋放。9/24即將開始第二季的幸福小組，求主讓我們可以邀請未信主的朋友，一起來經歷在主耶穌裡新造的生命。也興起更多願意參與傳福音的弟兄姐妹一起來服事。
Pray for Renewal Camp and Happiness Group. We are going to have the “Life Renewal Camp” on 9/8-9. May God lead the brothers and sisters who participating can experience the renewal of the Holy Spirit, receiving healing and deliverance. The Happiness Group will start on 9/24. May the Lord enable us to invite unbelieving friends to experience the new life in the Lord Jesus. Hope more brothers and sisters who are willing to participate in this ministry and serve together.
3.請為兒童主日學新學年度課程禱告：九月是教會兒童主日學新學期的開始，求神使每個孩子都接受耶穌基督為他們個人的救主及生命的主。讓孩子都跟神建立親密的關係，渴慕認識耶穌。也幫助家長們可以與兒主老師有良性的互動，在日常生活中與孩子一起活出信仰。幫助老師們盡心盡力的真理教導孩童、以愛心陪伴孩童，忠心的備課，成為優質的兒童服事者。
Pray for Children Sunday school. Our CC is starting a new season in September. Let us pray that every child will accept Jesus Christ as their savior and Lord of their life. Hope they develop an intimate relationship with God and love to know Jesus. Let us also help parents to have a positive interaction with Sunday school teachers and to live out their faith with their children in daily life. Pray for teachers teach Bible to children with all their heart, accompany them with love, prepare lessons faithfully, and become excellent children’s servants.
4. 為肢體禱告：為你所知道身體欠安的弟兄姐妹禱告，求神醫治他們恢復身體及心靈的健康。
Pray for the Sick. Pray that the Lord would heal those who are sick and restore their health and strength.
