EV2012- 3August 2012
Penang 檳城

在大家睡眠不足三小時的情況下,早上七時我們又再起床投入新的一天福傳工作
After sleeping for less than 3 hours, we get up at 7am in the morning and is ready for another day of adventure.
我們一起進行早上聖經分享。一開始就由簡單的聖經數字遊戲進行。
Daily bible sharing in the morning; it's fun to start the sharing with games on bible.

大家熱身過後,便進行聖言誦讀。
After the warm up games, Attar reads out the selected bible for today.



然後我們便出發前往市場去探訪當地的華僑,了解他們的民生。
We then head to the local market and visit the Chinese living there. We wish to learn more and understand their daily lives.

跟著,我們到了市場內的一家食肆,進食早餐。
We reach here to have some breakfast that the Chinese takes everyday.
當中我們選了四個逾越知音代表進行試食測試,讓他們猜猜桌上的美食是來自哪一舍地方。這次試食讓我們發現馬來西亞有很多不同種類的美食,也代表著馬來西亞是一個多元文化的國家。
We invited 4 of our members to try and guess what kind of cuisine they are going to eat. We found that there are many different types of yummy food in Malaysia. It shows that Malaysia is a multi-cultural country and people of different culture can live in harmony.

食過早餐後,我們繼續到市場派發福傳音樂會的宣傳單張。
After breakfast, we start distributing flyers to the Chinese to promote our EVConcert to be held tomorrow.
然後到附近的廟宇參觀,了解不同宗教在馬來西亞的情況。
Then we visit a small Chinese temple near the market and try to understand how different religions can co-exist with one another in Malaysia.


大約在早上十時半,我們抵達當地的老人院進行探訪。
Visitation on an Elderly Home in the morning.

我們跟長者們載歌載舞,他們手舞足蹈,相當投入、喜悅。
We sing and dance with the Elderly, who seemed to enjoy so much. We can tell how happy they are from their smiling faces.
探訪過後,當地華人替我們準備午餐,午餐後,我們參觀該堂區一周,並由當地華人代表Stephen向我們介紹堂區的歷史。
After visitation, the local Chinese prepared some nice lunch for us. They show us around St Anne's Church and Stephen, a local Chinese introduced to us the history of the Church. Stephen told us that he works full time for evangelization.

 


然後我們在該聖堂進行祈禱聚會的綵排。又到明天福傳音樂會的會場進行音樂會的綵排。
Rehearsing on the prayer gathering to be held tonight. We have also visited the venue of the EVConcert.

在晚上八時,我們正式開始當晚的祈禱會。當地的華人相當投入和熱情,跟我們一起做動作,一起唱歌。
We usually hold a prayer gathering before the EVConcet, asking for the Holy Spirit to grant us strength to serve at the EVConcert.
Quite a number of local Chinese came to sing and dance with us.

連接著祈禱會進行的朝拜聖體,大家都很用心、虔敬地向聖體禱告。
We have eucharistic adoration at the end of the prayer gathering. We all unit in prayers in front of the Holy Body.


最後,祈禱會及朝拜聖體結束後,我們跟當地華人團體共同為福傳音樂會進行事前的製作準備會議,
單是準備會議大家都已經十分投入,期待明天的音樂會會順利完成。
Finally, after the prayer gathering and adoration, we have a production meeting with the locals.
We practised some of the songs and dancing with them; they enjoyed it so much! We all hope that tomorrow's EVConcert will have a smooth run!
