Why am I quiet sometimes? (disertai terjemahan)
Have you noticed you haven't heart from me in quite a long time?
Many probably think that when i'm quiet it means I have nothing to report on.. actually, it's the very opposite.
Why i'm quiet sometimes and there's no posts or newsletters being sent out is because we have so much going on that we are caught up in it all and lose track of days and posting it on social media.
Since the beginning of the year we have been flying along in the ministry!
Here's just a few of the things we've been up to:
- Opening a new semester in WIBI Medan and training our students
- Traveling to Vietnam to equip a large group of church planters there
- Growing our TV show with new recordings for each week and our call centre which is now receiving over 1,000 communications each month
- Making plans to build dormitories on the 2nd floor of our building to enable many more students to come
- Planning our next children's outreach which will be held next week
- Increasing all of our missions sites with now over 20 of our missionaries sharing the gospel each week
- Doing our part as the pastoral team in Kuala Lumpur
- Increasing our outreach to those from East Malaysia
- Equipping our staff and enlarging all ministries
- Planning mission trips the next few months to Cambodia and the Philippines
- Many opportunities to share with local churches and even speak at the Indonesian Embassy in Malaysia
- And so much more..!!
Please keep every outreach, TV show, time of equipping and training in your prayers. And especially for larger plans arising as we grow to a national level and need to increase our buildings, staff, and other areas that will take a lot of finances.
Because the times we are “quiet” probably means we are busier than ever. :)
In Jesus,
Susan and Kevin
Apakah Anda menyadari bahwa sudah lama tidak dapat kabar terbaru dari saya?
Mungkin banyak yang berpikir begitu karena tidak ada yang perlu dilaporkan.. sebenarnya kebalikan.
Alasan saya kadang-kadang diam dan tidak ada kabar terbaru yang dikirimkan adalah karena kami punya begitu banyak hal yang dikerjakan sampai tidak sempat untuk mengirim kabar terbaru di media sosial.
Sejak awal tahun ini kami telah sbuk dalam pelayanan!
Berikut adalah sedikit kegiatan yang telah kami lakukan:
Membuka semester baru di WIBI Medan dan melatih murid-murid kami
Perjalanan ke Vietnam untuk memperlengkapi para perintis gereja disana
Semakin berkembang dalam program TV, rekaman baru setiap minggu dan call centre kami menerima sekitar 1,000 komunikasi tiap bulan
Merencanakan pembangunan asrama di lantai 2 agar dapat menampung lebih banyak siswa
Merencanakan penjangkauan anak-anak yang akan diadakan minggu depan
Memperbesar setiap lokasi misi kami dengan sekitar 20 missionaris yang memberitakan kabar baik setiap minggu
Melaksanakan bagian kami sebagai tim Pastoral di Kuala Lumpur
Memperbesar penjangkauan kami di Malaysia Timur
Memperlengkapi staff kami & memperbesar semua pelayanan
Merencanakan perjalanan misi ke Kamboja dan Filipina beberapa bulan kedepan
Banyak kesempatan untuk berbagi di gereja-gereja lokal bahkan berkhotbah di kedutaan besar Indonesia di Malaysia
Dan banyak lagi..!!
Tolong tetap doakan semua penjangkauan, program TV, pelatihan serta pelayanan lainnya. Terutama untuk rencana yang lebih besar tingkat nasional dan kami perlu memperbesar bangunan, staff dan beberapa area lainnya yang akan membutuhkan banyak biaya.
Saat diam bisa jadi saat paling sibuk
Dalam Yesus,
Susan dan Kevin
