Mission Information
Pray for the August Mission Month - the theme will be “Perspectives on Mission”. This Mission Month aims to, through an increased understanding of how the pandemic impacts on M1-M4, rekindle the church’s passion for mission, such that we all can creatively respond to every opportunity for mission around us. Speakers and topics are as follows:
1/8 The pastors of each congregation (M1)
8/8 Mr Karl Udy, Tandem Ministries (M2)
15/8 Rev Daniel Huang, Care Ministries International (M4)
22/8 Rev Clement Man, Founding Pastor of HWC (M3)
29/8 Mr George Wieland, Carey Baptist College (My heart for mission) - Combined Service
May God use His servants and help brothers and sisters to realize the implications of M1-M4 and carry out the Great Commission, to expand God’s Kingdom.
Mission Department has decided to donate $2,000 from the M4 account in aid of CEMHK’s 2nd stage construction of their Bible Seminary in the Northern region of Thailand. The seminary has started a 3 year Divinity course, a 2 year Masters course for Pastoral Ministry, and Masters night classes for Discipleship training. Praise the Lord for increasing the numbers of lecturer, students, and staff members in the seminary in the past 5 years, which prompted the 2nd stage campus construction. For more information go to https://www.cemhk.org.hk/ May God continue to use the seminary to train the local pastors in shepherding His herds.
Prayer Items for the Week
The motto for this year will remain the same as previous year. Pray that brothers and sisters can live out the church motto this year - "Renew our lives, become His disciples."
Pray for the Deacon election in July. May God find the suitable person to serve His people and church.
Pray for pastoral recruitment for the Senior Pastor and English service pastor.
A new pastor has been hired for the Cantonese service. Please pray for her application of the work visa. May God give her peace in her wait.
Pray for the global pandemic. May God’s mercy restore the order and peace of the world.
