The 2024 Spring Conference for Foreign Students in Taiwan Universities was held on March 30th at the Fuxing Building in Taichung. The gathering saw a participation of 430 attendees, including over 170 foreign students.
The conference featured two messages: “Experiencing and Enjoying the All-inclusive Christ as the Good Land” and “Worshipping the Father God in the Locality Chosen by the Lord”. These messages conveyed the burden of the past half-year’s training to the foreign students. The messages led the students to recognize the Lord as the all-inclusive good land, emphasizing the need to spend time being rooted in Him, daily experiencing and enjoying this all-sufficient God, lacking nothing in Him. Furthermore, it highlighted how such a life should enable us to bring the riches of Christ into the church meetings, participating in the corporate worship of our Father God. We not only know Christ but also the church, standing on the genuine ground of oneness, preserving the unique oneness of the Body of Christ.
The conference began with foreign students from different countries blending together through hymns. They joyfully sang “We’re in the Church, the Ark”, opening themselves to the Lord’s calling, free from all earthly tastes. They shared their joy from the unveiling of the Lord’s word, recognizing that the Lord is the soil today. We can freely speak to Him through prayer and absorb all the elements of this rich soil. After the conference, some students purchased English Recovery Version Bibles, testifying that, having been captivated by the Lord’s word during the conference, they would continue to practice being constituted with the Lord, seizing every moment to be saturated in Him.
Students also shared how the conference allowed saints from various places to gather together for sweet fellowship. They expressed that the opportunity to fellowship with saints of the same nationality about the grace they had received in different locations and the Christ they enjoyed was what they had been looking forward to most for the past six months. This truly testifies to the fact that when we gather on the ground of oneness and bring the riches we have produced, both God and man are satisfied.
May the Lord continue to gain students from all over Taiwan and raise up more burdened saints to care for and shepherd them, specifically spreading the gospel to all nations. We hope to serve this group of students into this ministry and into the Body of Christ, so that after they graduate, whether they return to their respective countries or remain in Taiwan, they can become a blessing to their local areas.
二○二四年全台大学外语学生春季相调聚会，于三月三十日在台中复兴大楼举行。本次聚会共有四百三十位与会，其中包含一百七十多位外语生。
本次聚会有两堂信息，分别是『经历并享受包罗万有的基督作美地』，以及『在主所选择的地方团体的敬拜父神』，将已过半年度训练的负担带给外语生。这两篇信息带领学生认识主乃是包罗万有的美地，我们需要花时间扎根于祂，天天经历并享受这位全丰全足的神，我们在祂里面一无所缺。另一面，这样的生活该使我们得着基督的富余能带到召会聚会中，而团体的敬拜我们的父神。我们不只是认识基督，更是认识召会，在一的真正立场上，保守基督身体独一的一。
聚会开头，来自不同国家的外语学生借着诗歌相调在一起，学生们欢唱『我们在召会这方舟里』，脱离一切属地的口味向着主的呼召敞开。他们分享因着主话语的解开而欢乐，看见主今天是土壤，我们能借着祷告自由的向祂说话，且吸取这丰富土壤的一切元素。有学生在特会后购买了英文版的恢复本圣经，并见证因着在特会中受主的话吸引，即使特会结束，仍要继续操练被主话构成，抓住每一时刻泡透在其中。
也有学生分享因着特会，使在各地的圣徒们能聚集一起，有甜美的交通。他们分享到能与相同国籍的圣徒们交通各地的蒙恩，和所享受的基督，是他们半年来最期待的事。这些真是见证我们在一的立场上聚集，将所出产的富余带来，就使神与人同得满足。
愿主继续得着全台各地的学生，并且兴起更多有负担的圣徒起来照顾、牧养学生，专特的传扬万邦的福音。盼望将这班学生服事到这分职事里，服事到基督的身体里，在他们毕业后，不论是回到各国各地，或是留在台湾，都能成为当地的祝福。
