EVANGELICAL FORMOSAN CHURCH NEWS LETTER
Greetings
Greetings in Jesus' name! May the Lord give you a wonderful
week, as we all grow in "grace and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ."
We’re thankful for the rains of recent days. I don’t hear talk of drought
anymore in the news, praise the Lord! We’ll continue to pray for timely rains,
without damaging severe weather.
This past Sunday (Mother’s Day) was truly a memorable one at
EFC-Houston! We welcomed Darhiel Dumapat as a new church member and had the
dedication of Leah Meili Yang, daughter of Henry & Erica! We prayed for
Pastor Craig/Erika Wimsett, as they will be leaving us at the end of May, to
eventually move to Taiwan, to pursue ministry there. We enjoyed a "Marriage
Celebration", in which Drs. Daniel/Gwen Garrido presented certificates to a few
couples who recently completed a series of Marriage Training classes. To honor
our mothers, Sis’ Grace Yang led some of our children/youth in singing songs and
playing music during lunch-time. There were other special musical performances
as well. Finally, we heard the powerful testimonies of Dr. Chen & Bro’ Mike
Williams (please check out the website, www.stephousing.org, which contains these testimonies; just click
on the "media link and you can then find the link
to listen to their DVD testimony). On that website, you can learn all about the
"shelter" that they’ve invented for homeless people.
Most of you have already paid for your
recently-ordered t-shirts, but in case you haven’t yet paid for the shirts, you
can either give cash ($10 per shirt) or make out a check to our church, with a
note in the memo, or separate note, that it’s for "EFC 2020 Year of Jubilee".
Don’t forget that the EFC General Assembly is encouraging all EFC members to
consider donating $20 per month to this church-planting initiative (planting 200
churches by the year, 2020).
Prayers
Let us continue to pray for our
missionaries (Charles Chen & David/Pearl Wang in China, and James/Rebecca
Tzou & Marco/Julie Chang in Taiwan). Please also pray for wisdom for those
involved in the ongoing search for a second church parsonage (which involves the
search committee, church board, and the rest of us, who are involved in prayer).
Thanks to those who prayed for the "rash" on Shirley’s leg; it is getting
better! Let me know, from week to week, if you would like a prayer request to
be put in my weekly letter, pertaining to anyone who is ill or any other need
represented in our local church body.
Up Coming Events
This Friday, May 17th, at 6:30 PM, as
I’ve mentioned in a separate e-mail, there will be a potluck/potblessing meal
at the church. The purpose is to spend some extra time with Pastor Craig/Erika,
who will only be with us for about 2 more weeks. IF you come to the meal,
please come to join us promptly at 6:30 PM, and please bring some food to share.
After that, at 7:30 PM, Pastor Craig Wimsett will continue his teaching series,
"Knowing the Voice of God". This week, he will go over chapter 7. Please read
ahead to familiarize yourself with the material. Also, for this series, "Knowing the
Voice of God", the reading materials can be download
from
the following web site:
www.harvestime.org
So, whether through your written booklet, or by way of
the internet, everyone can prepare at home before coming to church.
This Sunday, May 19th, will be normal service and Sunday school times. Let
us prepare our hearts to partake of Holy Communion this coming Sunday (in the
respective separate services). Later on, at 1:30 PM, the church board will have
a regular meeting.
Please note that after all Sunday activities
(including lunch, etc.) are completed on Sunday, May 26th, the church building will be fumigated (this is done
annually, to eradicate insects and such pests in the church) . The church
building will not be then reopened until the following Tuesday morning (please
make a note of this, as we would like the church building to remain shut on
Monday, Memorial Day).
There will be a sign-up sheet available for the next
few weeks, concerning the annual "Faith & Family Night Houston Astros’
baseball game". This year it will be on Saturday, July 20th, at 6:10 PM. The contemporary Christian group, "Tenth
Avenue North", will have a concert immediately after the game (against the
Seattle Mariners). Those of us who sign up will be responsible to give our
ticket money to Henry Yang, who will send in the order for tickets. If 20 of us
sign up, we can get the group rate of $10 a ticket. If less than 20 sign up,
the cost of each ticket will be higher. Six of us are signed up so far. The
game will be at the beautiful Minute Maid Park. The sign-up sheet will be out
for both services.
Please remember to mark your calendar and plan
to attend the annual EFC-Southern District Labor Day retreat (Aug. 31-Sept. 2).
This year it will be at Trinity Pines Conference Center (Trinity, TX). This is
only about a 2 1/2 hour drive away from our church. Pastor Lin, Guo-Liang will
be the speaker for the Taiwanese/Chinese group and Simon Lee (son of Elder
Robert & Lily Lee) will be the speaker for the English group). Simon was in
this church’s youth group back in the early 90’s and now is a local business
owner (who gives 50% of the net business profits to ministries/non-profit
organizations), who has made many short-term missions trips to several
continents over the years. Registration forms will be made available in the
near future.
Every Wednesday, there is a conversational English class
(9-10 AM) and Chinese-language Bible study (led by Pastor Wang) from 10AM-noon
here in the church. On Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings, we have prayer
here in the church (9-10:15 AM), and on Thursdays we have an English-language
Bible study (10:30-11:30 AM—currently, we’re going through the book of
"Revelation")}. On Sunday afternoons, after lunch, Dr. Daniel Garrido is
leading an English-language "new believers" class", which is open to anyone.
Materials are provided. Please let me or Bro’ Daniel know if you would like to
join this class (besides those who are already
attending).
Please see me if you want any information on being baptized in water or
becoming a church member here.
Blessings to All,
Don’t
forget to check out the church websites (www.efchouston.org &
www.robertleeefc.net). Please note the
change in Elder Lee’s website, from ".com" to ".net". There is also a church
calendar on the church’s website and recent pictures, that Bro’ Craig Wimsett
takes, of church activities. Both the recent English and Taiwanese/Chinese
preaching messages may be accessed on the church website. There is an
EFC-Houston "Facebook" private group, that you may join. The link for that is:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/efchouston. If
you ever have an announcement of some kind, that you would like to pass on to
church members, just let me know and I can pass it on to the church attendees on
my address list. Also, you can check out photographs on the picture board. The
latest newsletters from Angie Leet and Marco/Julie Chang are posted on the
bulletin board. Note: If you have not yet given us your information to be put
in the new English service directory, please do so, IF you want to be included
in that. Please let me or Evelyn Famorca know about that. Don’t’ forget to
pick up church brochures (on the foyer table or literature rack) to pass out to
people to invite them to our church. Have a great week!

問候
奉主耶穌的名向你們問候！願主賜你們一個美妙的一周，也讓我們在“主救主耶穌基督的恩典和知識上”有長進。我們為最近有在下雨感謝主，我也沒有再聽說會有乾旱的消息，讚美主! 但我們仍要繼續為按時能下些雨以及不要有會造成嚴重傷害的氣候禱告。
上星期日(母親節)對美南台福教會真是一個難忘的日子! 我們歡迎Darhiel
Dumapat成為教會的會友，還有我們也為Leah Meili Yang (Henry & Erica
Yang的女兒)舉行嬰兒奉獻禮! 我們為Craig Wimsett牧師和Erika Wimsett姐妹祝禱，他們會在五月底離開我們，然後到台灣宣教。我們也有一個婚姻講座見證，由Drs. Daniel/Gwen
Garrido頒發證書給幾對最近完成了一系列的婚姻講座課程的夫婦。為了慶祝母親節，在午餐的時候，Grace
Yang姐妹帶領一些教會的兒童及青少年唱詩歌和演奏樂器，還有一些其他的特別音樂表演，獻給所有的媽媽們。最後，我們聽到了陳榮良醫生及Mike Williams弟兄強而有力的見證分享(請到下列網站www.stephousing.org
按" media"就可以連結到他們的DVD見證) 在那個網站，你可以更加了解有關他們為街友所設計發明的簡便屋。
大部份訂購T-shirts的弟兄姐妹都已付款，但若是你尚未付款，你們可以付現金(每一件是 $ 10)或是支票，抬頭請寫EFC
Houston，在MEMO處或是另附上一張小便條，標明是為了2020 EFC Year of Jubilee。台福教會總會也鼓勵所有台福教會的會友能夠為此宣教植堂的推廣活動每個月奉獻 $ 20。(目標是在2020年能在全世界建立200間教會) 。
代禱
讓我們繼續為我們的宣教士祈禱: Charles Chen和 David/Pearl
Wang在中國，James/Rebecca和忠誠/秀瓊在台灣。我們也求神賜給那些參與購買第二個牧師館的弟兄姐妹智慧(包括尋找委員會、執事同工、還有其他為此事禱告的弟兄姐妹們)
。謝謝那些為Shirley的腿長疹子禱告的弟兄姐妹; 她已經好多了! 若你或是知道有任何人有病痛或是有需要的，希望我把他們的禱告請求放在我每週的信中讓大家代禱的，請每個星期讓我知道。
活動預告
這個星期五(5月17日)晚上6:30，就像我先前在另外寄給你們的信中所提到，我們在教會將有一個potluck /

Wimsett牧師和Erika Wimsett姐妹多一點團契時間，因為他們大概只能再有2個星期與我們同聚會而已 (他們再來要去台灣宣教)。如果你能夠來參加，請準時6:30到達，並請帶一些食物來與大家分享。吃飽之後，在7:30 Craig
Wimsett牧師將繼續帶領查經課程 "認識上帝的聲音”，這個星期我們將研讀第七章，請大家能夠事先看過，熟悉我們所要查讀的內容。還有，“認識上帝的聲音”的閱讀資料也可在以下的網站下截: www.harvestime.org

這個星期日(5月19日)將是平常的主日崇拜和主日學時間。請讓我們預備心來領聖餐(這個星期日，在兩堂的聚會中)。稍後在1:30的時候，有長執會議。
請大家注意在5月26日，當所有的活動結束後(包括午餐等等…)，整個教會建築將會噴灑殺蟲劑(一年一次，為了殺死一些害蟲)。教會將不會開門直到再來的星期二早上(請大家記得，教會在星期一的陣亡將士紀念日(Memorial Day)仍舊會關門)。
再來的幾個星期我們將會有一張報名單讓大家填寫，這是有關一年一度的" Faith & Family Night Houston
Astros’ baseball game(信心與家庭Houston Astro棒球賽)"。今年時間是訂在7月20日(星期六)晚上6:10。棒球賽後， "Tenth Avenue North"(
一個現代風格的基督教音樂團體),將會馬上舉行一個音樂會。報名要參加的人請將買票的錢拿給Henry
Yang，他將幫我們訂票。如果我們有20人參加的話，我們可以買到團體票價($ 10/一張票)。如果少於20人報名，每一張票價會比較高。目前我們已有6人報名參加，球賽地點在美麗的Minute Maid Park 球場，這報名表將會給兩堂聚會的弟兄姐妹簽。
請大家把時間空出來並能計劃參加每年一度的EFC美南區區會退修會(8月31日-
9月2日)。今年的地點在Trinity Pines Conference Center (Trinity,
TX)
，大約離教會2.5小時的車程。台華語講員為林 國亮牧師;英語講員是Simon Lee (是李席舟長老和LILY姐妹的兒子)。90年代時Simon是在這個教會的青少年組, 現在他已是一個企業老板(他將他淨賺之50%來幫助非營利機構的事工),這些年他也經常到許多不同的大陸短宣。在過一陣子我們報名表就會出爐。
每個星期三在教會有一個英語會話班（上午9:00-10:00）和華語的查經班(由王牧師帶領)，從上午10時至中午12時。每週二，週四，週五的上午，我們在教會有禱告會（9-10:15 AM），還有，每週四我們有一個英語查經班（目前是10:30-11:30 AM，現在正在查考“撒迦利亞書”）。在星期日下午午餐之後，Dr. Daniel Garrido 弟兄帶領一個英文新信徒/門徒訓練課程，任何人皆可來參加。會為你預備資料，但請讓我或是Daniel弟兄知道。(是說那些想來參加卻尚未讓我知道的弟兄姐妹而言)

祝福大家
有時間的話不要忘了去教會的網站看看（www.efchouston.org和www.robertleeefc.net）。請注意席舟長老的網站已從 ".com" 改成".net"。 網站還有放教會的活動時間表以及Craig Wimset弟兄拍的一些近期教會的活動照片。你也可以進去看最近的英語和台/華語講道。我們有一個屬於休士頓美南台福教會的臉書網頁，歡迎你們來加入。它的網站連結是: https://www.facebook.com/groups/efchouston
