Campus Small Group Sharing
I am currently attending Kaohsiung Girls’ High School and have been attending the Kaohsiung Girls’ Campus Small Group for almost a year. High school life is very busy. Besides dealing with academics, there are all sorts of interpersonal and club activities to handle. As a result, I often feel physically exhausted and mentally drained. Despite the busy schedule, I still choose to attend the Kaohsiung Girls’ Campus Small Group every Monday. Why? Because the Kaohsiung Girls’ Small Group feels like another home to me. Here, I have companions and serving sisters who enjoy the Lord with me and provide a lot of spiritual support. This is also a place full of love. My companions often pray for each other’s situations, and we encourage and cheer each other up in life. Every time I come to the Small Group, I feel relieved. My tense heart can relax, and I can focus on loving the Lord. After the Small Group, I feel like I have been fully recharged and have more strength to move forward and actively face the life ahead.
For all these reasons, I enjoy and cherish every Small Group session and hope that more people will join us. This has led me to feel a burden for the Kaohsiung Girls’ Small Group. Besides wanting to recommend the Lord whom I cherish and the warm Small Group gatherings to my friends, I also decided to invite classmates to the gospel Small Group after seeing the situation of my classmates. Every week during the Small Group time, we have group prayer. During the prayer, I often ask the Lord for the courage to invite my classmates. After prayer, I feel a sense of peace in the spirit. Later, relying on the Lord and the courage and determination He gave me, I invited a good friend from my class to the Small Group. The gospel Small Group time falls right before her tutoring session, and if she agreed to come, she would have to rush to class after the Small Group ended. But thanks to the Lord, she accepted the invitation! In the end, she successfully came to the Small Group and enjoyed God with us. Thank the Lord! Because of the Lord and the companions in the Campus Small Group, I still have time to enjoy God even in my busy life! (Liu Jiqian, Kaohsiung Girls’ High School)
The Kaohsiung Girls’ Small Group is a special gathering. Even though there aren’t many people, it is extremely warm and welcoming. Every week, I look forward to sharing my experiences with the servers after school on Monday and constantly receive strength from the Lord. Something special about the Kaohsiung Girls’ Small Group is that there is a chemistry teacher and an English teacher. Whenever I have academic problems, I can always get timely answers without having to line up and make an appointment at school. It’s a small blessing!
I remember a few weeks ago, I had to choose a position in the guitar club. Seeing that the audition was only a month away, I hadn’t even planned out how to play the song, so I was very anxious. During that day’s Small Group, I told everyone about my worries, and surprisingly, my sister in Christ planned the entire song for me in just half an hour after the Small Group and taught me some fancy playing techniques!
Because of the joy I find in the Small Group, I am eager to share the sweet assembly life with my classmates. The Lord also paved the way for me, and I have invited a classmate who is open to hearing about God. So far, she has come to the Small Group 5 times! May the Lord continue to attract her!
Every member of the Kaohsiung Girls’ Small Group is so warm and welcoming. Whether it’s academic or life problems, there are always companions who can lead me back to the Lord. For me, the Small Group isn’t a weekly routine, but more like a “home.” There, I not only receive the Lord’s fresh words, but I also learn valuable skills! I treasure each companion and server who are willing to firmly stand for the Kaohsiung Girls’ Small Group! (Li Qiaoan, Kaohsiung Girls’ High School)
I am currently attending Fengxin High School and attend the Fengshan Small Group every Tuesday. I have consistently attended the Campus Small Group for the past two semesters. On the one hand, I am grateful for the help of the servers who almost always come to pick me up and share the gospel with me at the school gate. On the other hand, I am also drawn by the Lord. In the past two semesters I have witnessed two brothers being saved and two brothers and sisters who had not gathered for a long time returning to the Lord. I have also met more companions in the Fengshan Small Group. Before, I could only meet them during special meetings. Now, with the Campus Small Group, I have opportunities to fellowship with them. I also have gained more understanding of the Lord in the meetings. The Old Testament, which I couldn’t understand before, has become rich and flavorful through the servers’ explanations. Lastly, there are the joint Small Groups, where we gather not only with surrounding schools but also with more brothers and sisters from different schools. I can see companions I don’t usually see. (Li Hongwei, Fengxin High School)
Scripture Reading and Evening Prayer Sharing
We have scripture reading and evening prayer from Monday to Thursday. This kind of evening prayer is very helpful in helping me turn back to the Lord and enjoy Him every night. In the past, I often spent my evenings glued to my phone, full of emptiness. But now, I set aside some time to read the Lord’s words every day, so I have a more regular habit of enjoying the Lord, which allows me to enjoy His presence every day.
However, I sometimes want to give up evening prayer. It takes almost half an hour, sacrificing my time for fun and reading, which often makes me feel like I don’t have enough time. But thanks to the Lord, I have a group of companions who pursue the Lord with me, so I have been able to stay online and continue. Evening prayer sacrifices my study time. For a group of ninth graders facing major exams, many people might think, “If I spend my study time on something else, won’t I finish my studies and fail my exams?” However, the Bible says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” Just trust yourself to the Lord and let Him lead. He will personally arrange what is best. Don’t worry about not finishing your studies, because God’s foolishness is wiser than men. We need to come before Him more and enjoy Him as our wisdom.
During evening prayer, I have had an experience about the importance of praying before reading the scriptures. Prayer is very important and effective. We practice praying before reading the scriptures to help us better return to the spirit. May our evening prayers be steadfast and continuous, always filled with the Lord’s strength. May the Lord continue to illuminate us through His Word, so that we are formed by His words and become vessels fit for the Lord’s use. (Yang Xuan, Qianzhen District)
I would like to share my experience of reading scripture with my companions. We started reading together because the junior high school special meeting said we should read Samuel. At first, I didn’t want to read because I wasn’t enjoying it, but later on, I gradually realized that I had communion with the Lord every day. And it was a good thing to continue reading with my companions. Before I started reading scripture, I would often stay up until ten o’clock before taking a shower and going to sleep. But after starting to read, I wouldn’t stay up that late. Also, it’s easier to keep reading with my companions, because it’s less likely to stop because of tiredness because we remind each other. Thanks to the Lord for giving me these companions, I can read scripture persistently! (Chen Enxin, Siwei District)
同享如释重负，同授属灵帮助，同品主话细读
校园排分享
我目前就读高雄女中，并参加了将近一年的雄女校园小排。高中生活十分忙碌，除了需要对付课业之外，还有人际、社团的各式各样的事务需要处理，因此生活中其实除了感到身体上的劳累，心灵上也会有种疲惫感。但在繁忙的生活中，我还是选择参加每周一的雄女校园排，为什么呢？
因为雄女排给人的感觉就像是另一个家，在这里，有同伴和服事的姊妹们与我一起享受主，提供了许多精神上的支持。同时这里也是个充满爱的地方，同伴们时常会为着彼此的情形有祷告，我们也会在生活中互相鼓励，为彼此加油。每当来到小排，我就像如释重负一般，可以让紧绷的心缓和下来，专一的爱主。而在小排过后，整个人也会像是充饱电一样，更有力量往前，积极地面对接下来的生活。
因为这种种原因，我很享受并珍惜每一次的小排时间，并更盼望能够有更多人一起来到小排中，因此开始对雄女排有负担。除了想将自己所珍赏的主和温暖的小排聚会推荐给朋友们之外，也因为看到身边同学的情形，最后决定要邀约同学来到福音小排。在每周的小排时间，我们都会有团体祷告，祷告的过程中，我时常向主寻求邀约同学的勇气，而经过祷告之后，也在灵里感受到了一种平安。后来，我凭着倚靠主和祂所赐给我的勇气与决心，邀约了班上的一位好朋友来到小排中。其实福音小排的时间卡在她的补习时间前，如果答应来参加小排，可能会让她在小排结束之后得接着赶去上课，但是感谢主，她答应了小排的邀约！最后也成功来到小排中，与我们一同享受神。感谢主，因着有主和校园排的同伴们，让我即便在忙碌的生活里也依然能有时间享受神！（雄女 刘纪芊）
雄女排是个特别存在的聚集，人数虽然不多，却格外温馨，每周总期待着周一放学后和服事者分享近况，也不断从中获得主的加力。特别的是，雄女排有一位化学老师和一位英文老师，每每有学业上的问题，总能及时得到解答，不用在学校争先排队预约，算是种小确幸！
还记得几周前我要选吉他社的干部，眼看验收时间只剩不到一个月，当时的我甚至还没规划好歌曲的弹法，就甚是焦虑。在当天的小排中，我将这样的忧虑和小排中的大家说，没想到同心姊竟然在小排后短短的半个小时为我规划好整首歌，并教了我一些炫技的弹法！
因着在小排中的喜乐，使我渴望将甜美的召会生活分享给同学，主也为我开路，因而邀到了一位敞开的同学，至今已经来过5次小排了！愿主继续吸引她！
雄女排的每一位都是如此温暖，无论是课业或生活上的烦恼，总有同伴带我重回主前。对我而言，小排不是每周的例行公事，而更像一种「家」的存在，我在那不仅得着主新鲜的说话，也习得宝贵的技能！很宝贝每一位愿意为雄女排坚定占住的同伴与服事者！（雄女 李荞安）
我目前就读的是凤新高中，每周二都会去参加凤山小排。我在这两个学期都坚定持续的参加校园排，一方面是服事者的帮助，几乎次次都来载我和我一起在校门口传福音。另一方面也是主的吸引，在我去的这两个学期我见证两位弟兄得救和两位久未聚会的弟兄姊妹回归。我在凤山排也认识了更多同伴，原本都只能在特会遇到，有了校园排也能有相调的机会。在聚会也有对主的认识，原本读不懂的旧约，在服事者的讲解下，也变得丰满有味道。最后是联合小排，不仅是跟周围的学校聚会，而且是与更多不同学校的弟兄姊妹一同聚集，能见到平常见不到的同伴们。（凤新 李浤玮）
读经晚祷分享
我们是在每周一至四有读经晚祷，这样的晚祷有很大的一个好处，就是帮助我在每天晚上都能转回灵里享受主。以往的晚上，常常是被手机霸占，满了虚空。但现在每天拨一点时间来读主的话，使自己更有规律享受主的习惯，使我天天都享有主的同在。
但是我有时也会想要放弃晚祷，因为晚祷的时间很长，将近半小时，牺牲了玩乐和读书的时间，以致于常常觉得时间不够用。但是感谢主，因着有一群一同追求的同伴，我还是坚定持续的上线了。晚祷牺牲了读书的时间，对于一群要面对大考的国三生，很多人可能会觉得：「把读书的时间拿去做别的事，不就读不完、也考不好了吗？」但是圣经上说：「敬畏耶和华是智慧的开端，认识至圣者便是聪明。」只要放心把自己交给主，由祂来带领，祂会亲自安排上好的。不要担心书会读不完，因为神愚拙总比人智慧，我们要更多到祂面前，享受祂作我们的智慧。
我在晚祷时也有一个经历，就是读经前祷告的重要性。祷告是很重要的一件事，是有功效的；我们操练在读经前祷告，帮助自己更好的回到灵里。但愿我们的晚祷能够坚定持续，一直满有主的加力，也求主更多透过经文光照我们，使我们被主的话构成，成为主合用的器皿。（前镇大区 杨瑄）
我要分享平日跟同伴一起读经的经历。我们是因为国中特会说要读塞缪尔记才开始一起读经。一开始不太想读，因为没什么享受，但是到后面就慢慢觉得，每天都跟主有交通，而且跟同伴持续有读经是很好的事。没读经前，回家之后就混到十点才洗澡睡觉，但是读经之后就不会拖这么晚。而且跟同伴一起读经比较容易持久，比较不会因为累了就停掉，因为同伴间都会互相提醒。感谢主让我有这些同伴，可以持之以恒的读经。（四维大区 陈恩欣）
