編者的話・
這本刊物命名為《總監督綜覽》,顧名思義,是從總監督的視角來觀看香港五旬節聖潔會的大小事,並展望香港與總會的關係。因此,我們特別刊登伍牧師在新一屆按牧典禮上的發言,從中可以更深地了解牧長對新一代牧者的期許,並看到牧長自己自蒙召以來在事奉生涯中的佳美
見證。
說到佳美見證,在全球新冠病毒的肆虐下,我們更清晰地看到各地宣教士為主作工的心志。香港差出幾個地區的宣教士,他們與世界各地的宣教士一樣,都是雲彩般的見證人,默默地在異地開展華人福音事工。請記念他們的勞苦。此外,與伍牧師有深厚交情的格里牧師(Rev. Mike Gray)最近因病辭世、安息主懷,本期宣教略影特別刊載相關之悼念文章。
請記念聖工在全球的拓展,我們深信神必定興起更多忠勇有謀略的牧者和宣教士,在這看似艱難的世代,在世界不同角落為福音綻放光彩,結出豐盛的美果。
Editor’s Note:
The name of this booklet explains its contents well,
that is to see the world, especially the issues relating to the Pentecostal Holiness Church, from the perspective of the Field Superintendent in Hong Kong. In this very first issue, the sermon of Rev. Donavan Ng at HKPHC’s Ordination Service on the 3rd of October, 2021, is featured, from which one can see Rev. Ng’s expectations for the newly ordained as well as the wonderful testimonies during his own dedicated life of service.
Under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a plenty of great testimonies all around the world as missionaries everywhere have been working harder than ever. The couple of missionaries sent from Hong Kong to several regions have joined force in teaming up as a great cloud of witnesses when they work tirelessly on the ministries for overseas Chinese. Besides, this issue recorded a featured column in remembrance of late Bishop Mike Gray who passed away and entered the glorious presence of our Lord Jesus Christ in October 2021.
Please remember in prayers the development of ministries all around the world. Our God will definitely raise up more courageous and faithful servants amid these hard times. The tougher it gets, the brighter His followers will shine in different parts of the world by sharing His words and promises.
