  5. Next Step

  6. 宣教基金擬案 (2014 Aug) • 日本長宣由現時教會全資改變為一半自籌, 一半教會資助 (等如現時中宣模式) 。 • 如自籌部分不足50%, 教會包底。 • 自籌部分多寡 (顯示會眾對宣教支持度)會給執事會參考, 以討論之後宣教發展/資助模式。 • 教會每年依舊以不少於全年收X入 10% 撥款予宣教基金 (撥款細節: 先短宣及其他, 餘款pro-rata 中宣及長宣) 。 • 奉獻可作個別宣教士, 或整體宣教基金捐獻, 亦接受外來捐獻

  7. 執事改選

  8. 基本資格 • 會員大會會員 • 穩定出席崇拜及小組 • 十一奉獻 • 曾擔任帶領性事奉,如牧區組長、導師、單位負責人、前任執事等 • 清楚上帝呼召其作執事 • 認同堂會的異象 • 生命成熟

  9. 執事職責 • 願意付代價活出基督徒的使命和信念,作信徒生命的榜樣。 • 與教牧同工組成團隊,一同商議、決定、傳遞及執行堂會整體福音事工及各項行政事務。 • 擔任牧區/宣教發展小組/崇拜執事,與牧區/單位之牧者/核心成員組成團隊,在配合教會整體的方向下,制定及執行各牧區/單位之發展方向、具體目標、策略、活動及事奉守則。

  10. 執事候選人 • 邀請現任執事留任。 • 2-7月執事同工們於牧區中物色合適人選,邀請他們加入執事之事奉。 • 4-7月期間於崇拜發出邀請,並刊於週刊家事分享及代禱事項內,呼籲合資格並有感動的弟兄姊妹於於31/7前聯絡牧師及執事。牧師/執事會正副主席將約有意參加下屆執事服侍之弟兄姊妹面談。
