海外來鴻:對於印度事工的展望

印度聖工小組

印度聯絡處(CBI)和當地教會的發展依然緩慢。這與當地的文化和領導人的教育水準比較低有著極大的關係。年長的領導人和他們對新一代接班人的猜疑、不合是一大阻礙,這項工作需要長時間的牧養和耐心。教會發展將由新一代來開始,當他們成為教會的柱石,事情或許會有新的轉變。印度事工小組(IMC)和印度聯絡處(CBI)將繼續建立一個「自我管理、自我宣道和自我支助」的教會。

The development of the Coordination Board in India (CBI) and the local churches is still slow. This has very much to do with their local culture and the lower education among the present leaders. The disunity and suspicion of the older leaders among themselves and towards the younger generation continue to be a hindrance. We have to be patient in this aspect of the work. It needs time. Development will start with the younger generation. Things may have a new turn when they become the pillars of the church in the future.

India Mission Committee (IMC) and Coordination Board in India (CBI) will continue to work towards a church that is "Self Administer, Self Propagate and Self Finance."

行政管理


Administration

* 印度事工小組將協助印度設立一個好的組織和管理系統。一直以來,所有的努力都是注重於重組印度聯絡處。自明年開始,我們將注重於堅固地方教會。

* 把事工手冊分配給各教會以協助成為管理教會的準則。」

宣道與開拓


Evangelism and Pioneering

* 地方傳道將會被差派到新開設地區如Ariyalur和Pillur。
* 計劃協助Ariyalur教會。(教會設立已大約5年。信徒耗盡自己的財產湊錢來購買一塊大60x46英吋的地來建造教堂。信徒人數大約有20位成人。參加宗教教育班的兒童有37位。)
* 計劃協助Pillur教會。(這是一個新的宣道地點。靠近的地方有Veppur「主要大道」和Ulunderpet。教會現在正湊錢要在那裡購買地皮。信徒們目前都聚集在一位信徒的家進行聚會,有很多慕道者參加。兒童大約有20位,可在那裡開始宗教教育班。)

* Local Preachers will be posted to the newly established areas such as Ariyalur and Pillur.

財力


Finance

我們很高興看到印度目前的資金狀況,大家都互相分擔聖工上的費用。最近,他們也一同分擔訓練中心的維修費用。藉著神的恩典我們可以看到他們在財力方面上的穩固。

* 印度聯絡處將繼續探討增加奉獻的方法(「一天一杯茶」計劃,奉獻給印度聯絡處)。
* 將繼續協助印度聯絡處和地方教會設立健全的資金系統。

真耶穌教團

* 我們讓各領導人到Chennai印度神學訓練中心接受有關信心的密集訓練課程,他們都能夠明白以及接受這真理,其中五位已領受了聖靈。我們將繼續在當地教會舉辦靈恩會,也為接受真理的信徒施洗。我們會確定他們明白洗禮的真諦以及了解他們與未受洗的朋友們之間的關係。

* Local Preachers will be posted to TJM Vandiperiyar on a regular basis. The local Preachers would remain in TJM for a month in a stretch. They would stay with the TJM members in the estates. With this, we are able to understand the TJM members better and are able to convey our message to them clearly.
* We have already brought the leaders to ITTC Chennai to undergo an intensive program on the Articles of Faith. They are able to understand and accept the truth. Five of them have also received the Holy Spirit. We will proceed to conduct Spiritual Meetings in the local churches and proceed to baptize those who accept the truth. We will ensure they understand the implications of been baptized and their future relationship with those who are not baptized.
