2025 ALife Welcome Party! 迎新! ALife 2024 Welcome Package 2024 ALife Welcome Party!
Sisters and Brothers, dear you are,
The order of the newsletter, changed I have. This new format, temporary it be. Everything below, read you must. Yoda’s way of talking, similar I sound. Sister Mannwen’s greeting, below you find:
上個月我們講「打那美好的仗」,因時間不夠,未能將爭戰得勝的方法以及神所賜的全副軍裝解釋清楚,所以這個星期五會繼續討論這個主題。希望我們不但知道要打的仗是什麼,還能夠成為一個得勝者。
We talked about “Fighting the Good Fight of Faith” last month. Unfortunately, we ran out of time and did not cover the ways to win the spiritual battle and the full armor of God thoroughly. We will continue to discuss this topic on Friday. I hope we will not only know what battle we are fighting, but also become a winner of the battle.

代禱事項
1.    週日朝正兄送急診,因為近來一直無法進食,以至於有嚴重缺水的現象,打了點滴後,現已移到普通病房,醫生建議可能要裝鼻管或胃管來進食。朝正兄發出了一個代禱事項,希望大家能為他下一步的治療來代禱,求主賜予醫生智慧,預備最好的治療方式。現在急需我們的迫切代禱,求主引導,求主安排。菁滿姐的坐骨神經疼痛仍然上上下下,有時疼痛難熬,需要體力來照顧朝正兄與家人,懇求主施恩幫助。

2.    盈興週二晚上8:30回到VA。感謝主在台灣的這幾天,盈興有機會帶母親及大哥到附近的教會參加主日,另外也感謝曼文姐介紹的孫鴻鎮牧師與盈興聯絡上,並且熱心的到他家探訪。求主紀念孫牧師的愛心,並保守他與盈興家人日後的交通,都有神的恩典同在,來帶領他的家人認識神。

3.    日本 3/11 發生大地震、海嘯、爆核、爆火山,面臨前所未有的國難。請各位弟兄姊妹在禱告中和全世界聯合,求主透過這災難顯出祂的大能,讓世人看見神的真實及榮耀。欲捐款賑災,可參考以下的網站:

家庭作業
在這個禮拜內,為小組中一個人提名禱告(為他的個人需要,如果不知道要禱告甚麼,就打通電話或FB一下囉!)

思考及討論問題:

1.   聖經中有很多得勝者,請一 組研究一個得勝者,分析他們得勝的關鍵,品格的特質,供大家參考學習。(摩西-車輪餅以利亞-太陽餅大衛-喜餅亞伯拉罕-鹽光餅保羅-燒餅)

2.   你認為這個世代的年輕人(就是你和你的朋友),最常有的問題是什麼?請依照嚴重性排列這七樣事情(婚外性行為;執迷電腦遊戲∕網路 surfing;驕傲自大;容易憂鬱沮喪;好批評論斷;配偶難尋;工作壓力)。針對每一項,你有什麼好方法可以幫助他們得勝?

忍 受 試 探 的 人 是 有 福 的 , 因 為 他 經 過 試 驗 以 後 , 必 得 生 命 的 冠 冕 ; 這 是 主 應 許 給 那 些 愛 他 之 人 的 。(雅 各 書 1:12)

Walking with God

This Week’s Overview – March 2011
Thursday Prayer Meetings 9:05pm,

(712)775-7000, Access Code: 186254#

Prayer Requests
1.    Brother Chaujun was sent to the emergency room last Sunday. Since he has been having difficult to swallow, he was severely dehydrated. He is now transferred to the regular hospital room after having an IV. The doctor suggested inserting a nasal or gastric tube for food intake. Brother Chaujun is sending a prayer request to all, that everyone would pray for the next direction, and may the Lord grant the doctors wisdom to prepare the best treatment. He is in urgent need for our prayers, may the Lord lead, and may the Lord make way. Sister Jingmann’s sciatic pain continues to have its ups and downs, at times too painful to bear. She needs much strength and energy to take care of Brother Chaujun and family. Pray, may the Lord have mercy and help soon!

2.    Brother Ying-Hing’s father came back to VA on Tuesday night at 8:30pm. Praise God that Ying-Hsin was able to take his mother and brother to a nearby church on Sunday these past few days. We also thank Sister Mannwen for introducing Pastor Hong-Jen Sun to Ying-Hsin and visited the family. May the Lord remember Pastor Sun’s love for this family, and pray that the Lord will continue to shower his love in every gathering he has with the family, and bring them to know God.

3.    On 3/11 Japan faces the greatest disaster in their country’s history, a combination of earthquakes, a tsunami, nuclear power plant explosion, and an erupting volcano. May all brothers and sisters unite with the world in prayer, may the Lord use this disaster to show His power, so that the world may see that God is real and His glory. For those who would like to donate to the disaster relief, please see the following links:

Homework
For this week, pray for one person in your group. Pray for his/her needs. If you don’t know what to pray for, better call or facebook him/her!

Questions for discussion:

1.   There are several “winners” in Bible. Each group is assigned to study a winner and analyze the winner’s key to winning and characteristics. (Moses – Wheel Cakes, Elijah – Sun Cakes, David – Wedding Cookies, Abraham – Salt and Light Cakes, Paul – Roasted Pastries)

2.   What are the most common problems that young people of this generation (namely, you and your fiends) have? Rank the following seven problems by how serious they are: premarital sex or adultery, computer game or Internet addiction, arrogance and pride, prone to depression, judgmental, unable to find a husband or wife, and work-related stress. Do you have any good solution to help them overcome these problems? Specify your solution to each problem.

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. (James 1:12)
