四月貝里斯短宣 April Belize STM Trip Day 2
April 15, 2015
我們四月貝里斯短宣隊有忙碌的一天。上午,Leo和Raymond探訪參觀了Desmond的小公寓後,與何太太作了跟進探訪。讚美神,何太太坐下來與團隊作了信仰的確認。我們團隊鼓勵她開始每天靈修和祈禱。這次與何太太的跟進探訪在讚美,感恩,懺悔,並彼此代求中結束。
接着Leo和Raymond參觀了林超市,玫瑰餐廳的Cindy現時在那裏工作。短宣隊隨後探訪了Tai San餐廳的梁太太,在那裹吃午餐。短宣隊與她有很好的分享,並鼓勵她繼續有信心跟隨神。
短宣隊接着探訪了伍先生的Yummy餐廳,譚先生的Alex餐廳,和寡婦林太太。林太太有一颗願意聆聽的心,但Leo和Raymond能看出她獨自打理店鋪很辛苦。
在晚上,按計劃Raymond準備食物,Leo作廚師與黎先生和Mike吃晚餐。他們有鰻魚和海參等精彩菜餚。他們有很好的分享時間,黎先生與Leo 和Raymond分享了讓他煩惱的問題:關公和祖先。
總括來說,我們四月短宣隊在貝里斯被熱情的接待。Desmond過去一年的辛勤服侍終於有了回報。感謝神確實在這裡中國人的心裏動
工。讚美神,大多數今天短宣隊探訪了的朋友都願意星期天來參加團契。
代禱事項:
1. 再次在林太太店裡幫忙
2. 探訪馮先生和61 Bullet Tree Village
3. 為何太太的機器問題翻譯
4. 在短宣隊的旅館晚上與Mike分享
Our April Belize STM team had a busy day today. Leo and Raymond followed up with Mrs. Ho in the morning after visiting Desmond's small apartment. Praise God that she was able to sit down with the team and went through the belief confirmation. The team encouraged her to start daily devotion and
prayer. The visitation concluded in praise, thanksgiving, confession, and prayers for each other.
Leo and Raymond visited Lin's Superstore next, where Cindy of Rose restaurant now works. The team then visited Mrs. Leung of Tai San Restaurant for lunch. The team had good sharing with her and encouraged her to continue to keep her faith.
The team next visited the Yummy restaurant of Mr. Eng, Alex restaurant of Mr. Tam, and Mrs. Lam, the widow. Mrs. Lam was very open and receptive, but Leo and Raymond can tell that she is having difficulties in handling the store by her own.
At dinner, as planned Raymond prepared food and Leo acted as the chef for Mr. Lai and Mike. They had wonderful dishes of eel and sea cucumber and yummies. It was a wonderful fellowship time, and Mr. Lai shared his linger question of a Chinese ancient god (關公) and ancestors (祖先).
Overall our team is very impressed with the warm reception they have received from all of the visits today. The hard work of Desmond over the year has really paid off. We are thankful yet humble for God has indeed worked in the Chinese here. Praise God that most of the people the team visited today have agreed to come to the Sunday's fellowship.
Prayer requests:
1. Help out again in Mrs. Lam shop
2. Visit Mr. Fung and 61 Bullet Tree Village
3. Translation for the machine problem of Mrs. Ho
4. Night gathering with Mike in our guesthouse.

請繼續為探訪林太太,何太太和黎先生作門徒訓練與跟進祈禱。
Praise the Lord that both Leo and Raymond have arrived Belize safe and sound. Thanks to Feng zhi providing the ride to the airport in the morning rush hour traffic.
Desmond over in Belize picked them up along with Mrs. Ho, a seeker, who was shopping in Belize city. Leo and Raymond got to know Mrs. Ho during the ride to San Ignacio. By God's grace, she accepted Jesus as her Savior, and followed Raymond in the believer's prayer immediately in the car. Leo and Raymond will start tomorrow for follow up confirmation with her.
The team also visited Mr. Lai and Mike. The team were served with some soup, and had setup follow-up visit to cook and have dinner with Mr. Lai and Mike again. Because Mr. Lai has some health issues, our team has volunteered to help with the cooking. Leo will be the chef and Raymond will do food preparation, with follow-up discussion over dinner.
Please continue to pray for visits to Mrs. Lam, Mrs. Ho and Mr. Lai for discipleship and follow-up visits.
