- 繼續在大齋節期的當中，鼓勵兄姊用靈修、禁食和默想來體驗主耶穌走上十字架的路程。During Lent, brothers and sisters are encouraged to use the spiritual practices of fasting and meditation to experience the journey of the Lord Jesus on the cross.
- 執事會因應土耳其和敘利亞地震的需要，由急難救助基金捐出兩千元透過美國長老教會來捐助災區的需要。長執會決定鼓勵兄姊來為此奉獻，有感動者請在支票上註明為震災，教會將集中款項共同寄出，希望透過大家小小的力量帶來鼓勵和幫助。In response to the Turkey-Syrian earthquake, the Deacon Council has donated $2,000 from the Emergency Relief Fund through the American Presbyterian Church. The committee has also decided to encourage brothers and sisters to contribute to this cause. If you are so moved, please indicate on the check that your offering is for the earthquake disaster. The church will send the funds together to bring encouragement and financial help through everyone’s contribution, however small.
