守望者 矽谷匯點教會禱告小組

親愛的兄弟姊妹：

 我們是一群關心矽谷匯點教會的會員。鑑於最近幾個月發生的事件以及領袖之間的一些不和，我們誠摯地邀請您加入一個網上禱告小組，專門為我們教會的合一和未來的方向禱告。 如果可行的話，我們計劃每週一次舉行網上祈禱會，最初為期三個月，並可能有時同聚一起進行集體祈禱。日後如果弟兄姊妹覺得有需要，我們亦可以延續這禱告會。我們計劃每次先進行 10 分鐘的簡短靈修，然後有 45 分鐘的集體祈禱。

為了進一步明確這次集體祈禱會的目的，我們想強調的是，我們不是

 • 試圖在教會內形成任何派別

 • 成為小道消息和謠言的傳播管道

 • 試圖對任何過往的失誤進行裁決或指責。

 • 關注個人問題，例如健康或家庭問題。這些項目可以在其他場合中提出代禱，例如在生命小組中。

相反地，我們想要集中

• 在神面前省察自己，為我們得罪了主內的肢體和忽略了拯救靈魂的罪去悔改

• 求神復興教會

• 求聖靈賜我們心靈上的合一、互相聆聽的耳朵以及真正的謙卑。

• 放下我們心中先存的理念，同心尋求上帝對匯點教會的旨意。

我們知道灣區的生活令人忙碌、日程緊湊。然而，我們意識到目前我們的教會正站在一個重要的十字路口。 撒旦日夕瘋狂地工作。我們需要集中一切力量來對抗撒但的攻擊。因此，我們呼籲您加入這支祈禱戰士的大軍。

 如果您有興趣加入這個守望者隊伍，請聯絡 Adrian Wu 胡冠峰（wua@yahoo.com）和/或 Stephen Yim 嚴志明（stephenyim99@hotmail.com 636-236-7777）。我們將與您聯繫並提供連結、日期和時間。請隨意將此邀請信轉發給其他匯點教會成員。

An Invitation to Join a Prayer Group for CrossPoint Church of Silicon Valley

Dear brothers and sisters,

            We are a group of concerned members of Crosspoint Church of Silicon Valley. In view of the events happening in the last few months and some discord among the leaders, we want to cordially invite you to join an online prayer group specifically for the purpose of praying for the unity of our church and its future directions.

            If it is agreed by members of this group, we plan to meet and pray online once weekly, initially for three months, with a possibility of praying together physically once in a while. However, if brothers and sisters see the need, we may extend the sessions in future. We plan to start with a short devotion of 10 minutes every time, followed by 45 minutes of group prayers.

            To further clarify the aim of this collective prayer times, we want to emphasize that we are not

• trying to form any factions within the church
• becoming channels of gossips and rumors
• trying to convict any wrong doings or assign blames.
• focusing on individual personal issue, like health or family problems. These items can be interceded during other settings, like within life groups.

Rather, we want to

• examine ourselves before God and repent for our sins of neglecting our fellow Christians and the outside non-believers
• pray for revival of the church
• ask the Holy Spirit to grant us unity of mind, mutual listening ears and true humility of hearts.
• empty our pre-existing ideas and collectively seek God’s will on the future direction of CrossPoint Church

We understand that lives in the Bay Area can be hectic and schedules tight. However, we realize that currently our church is standing at an important junction in our history.  Satan is furiously at work. We need to muster all our strength to counter Satan’s attack. Hence we call upon you to join this army of prayer warriors.

If you are interested in joining this troop of watchmen/watchwomen, please contact Adrian Wu (wua@yahoo.com) and/or Stephen Yim (stephenyim99@hotmail.com 636-236-7777). We will contact you with the link, date and time. Feel free to forward this invitation to other concerned church members.

Yours in Christ,

Adrian Wu & Stephen Yim
