荣耀的天父上帝，感谢祢眷顾许广铮牧师和师母一家人，在伦敦新的联区开始了新的事奉，牧养 Shern Hall Methodist Church 和 Woodford Methodist Church。最近，广铮牧师第一次出席新联区会议，他看到出席的会友传道多数是七十岁以上，而且听见教会人数下降、建筑物陈旧、空教堂要售卖或与机构搭配的讨论，令人担忧。恳求圣灵使用广铮牧师与师母，带领教会的更新和复兴，让英国卫理教会有新一代崛起。也求天父恩待牧师的三位女儿，工作和事奉都蒙恩。奉主耶稣基督的名，阿们。
Missionary Care
Glorious Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your care over Reverend Hii Kong Ching and his family as they begin new ministry in a new District in London, shepherding Shern Hall Methodist Church and Woodford Methodist Church. Recently, Reverend Hii attended his first circuit meeting in the new district. He observed that most of the attending lay preachers were over seventy years old. He also heard discussions about declining church membership, aging buildings, and plans to sell vacant churches or partner with organizations—all matters of deep concern. We earnestly pray that the Holy Spirit will use Reverend Hii and his wife to lead the renewal and revival of the churches, raising up a new generation within the British Methodist Church. May the Heavenly Father also bless the pastor’s three daughters, granting them grace in both their work and ministry. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

Bapa Surgawi yang Mulia, kami mengucap syukur kepada-Mu atas kasih sayang-Mu terhadap Paderi Hii Kong Ching dan keluarganya apabila mereka memulakan pelayanan baru di Distrik yang baru di London, memimpin Gereja Metodist Shern Hall dan Gereja Metodist Woodford. Baru-baru ini, Paderi Hii menghadiri pertemuan pertamanya di distrik baru. Dia memperhatikan bahawa sebahagian besar pengkhotbah awam yang hadir berusia atas tujuh puluh tahun. Selain itu, dia mendengar perbicaraan mengenai penurunan jumlah anggota gereja, bangunan gereja yang lama, serta penjualan gereja-gereja yang kosong – hal-hal yang sangat membimbangkan. Kami dengan sungguh-sungguh berdoa agar Roh Kudus menggunakan Paderi Hii dan isterinya untuk memimpin pembaruan dan kebangkitan gereja-gereja, sehingga generasi baru dapat bangkit di dalam Gereja Methodist di UK. Semoga Bapa di Surga juga memberkati ketiga-tiga anak perempuan Paderi Hii, memberikan mereka kasih kurnia dalam pekerjaan dan pelayanan mereka. Dalam nama Tuhan Yesus Kristus, Amin.
