一﹑本週經文Scriptures：以弗所書 1:19-20 Ephesians
19 並知道他向我們這信的人所顯的能力是何等浩大，20 就是照他在基督身上所運行的大能大力，使他從死裡復活，叫他在天上坐在自己的右邊，
19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,

二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
