一﹑本週經文Scriptures: 彼得前書4：7-8  1 Peter

萬物的結局近了，所以你們要謹慎自守，警醒禱告。最要緊的是彼此切實相愛，因為愛能遮掩許多的罪。
7 The end of all things is near. Therefore, be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray.
8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1.請列國禱告：為土耳其及敘利亞大地震後的災後安置與重建禱告。土耳其於2月6日強震之後，2月27日在土耳其東南部有發生5. 6級地震。這兩次的地震造成土耳其高達超過340億美元的損失，及150萬人無家可歸。由於當地天氣惡劣，餘震頻傳造成災後的重建與對受災人民安置的困難。求神憐憫土耳其，讓神的愛能大大的充滿這個國家，安慰人心中的恐懼及擔憂。
Prayer for Turkey and Syria. Pray for the resettlement and reconstruction after the earthquake in Turkey and Syria. After the earthquake in Turkey on February 6, another earthquake of 5.6 magnitude occurred in southeastern Turkey on February 27. The two earthquakes caused Turkey more than $34 billion in damage and 1.75 million people were left homeless. Due to the bad weather in the area, frequent aftershocks caused difficulties in reconstruction and resettlement of the affected people. May God be merciful to Turkey, so that God’s love can greatly fill this country and comfort people’s fears and worries.

2.為兒童堂禱告：在後疫情時代，兒童主日學人數面臨減少的危機，教會中的兒童和青少年所佔比例越來越低，有33%的教會暫停兒童主日學事工。懇求主使下一代從世俗的價值觀中迴轉，能夠真實經歷神，將敬拜神放在生命的首位，讓兒童主日學得以恢復，復興。
Pray for children’s congregation.  In the post-pandemic era, the number of children in Sunday schools is facing a crisis of decline. The proportion of children and teenagers in churches is getting lower and lower. 33% of churches have suspended children’s Sunday school services. Pray to the Lord to turn the next generation from secular values, to truly experience God, to put worship of God at the top of their lives, and to restore and revive children’s Sunday School.
