From the founder Pastor Scott Chang 來自創辦人 Scott 張牧師
After gathering nearly 6,000 people on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/churchinapark) and mobilizing them to use their local parks for evangelism, the "Church in the Park" movement was ignited in the USA around 2012, leading countless souls to Christ. Shortly after, the Lord called our family to Asia as missionaries. Although we didn’t initially understand the reason, we responded with swift obedience. What an incredible journey these past 10 years have been! For me, language was never a barrier, as I was raised in Taiwan until the age of thirteen before immigrating to the USA. My wife works at a Christian school established for missionary kids, so I remain in constant contact with missionaries from around the world.
在FB上聚集了將近6,000人（基督教今日報有做了詳細的報導），並動員他們利用當地的公園進行福音宣教後，“公園教會”運動於2012年在美國啟動，帶領了無數靈魂歸向基督。不久之後，主呼召我們全家作為宣教士前往亞洲。雖然我們起初不明白原因，但我們迅速順服了。這十年來的旅程真是非凡！對我來說，語言從不是障礙，因為我在十三歲之前一直在台灣長大，之後才移民到美國。我妻子在一所為宣教士子女創辦的基督教學校工作，因此我與來自世界各地的宣教士保持著密切聯繫。
A year after settling in Taiwan, I began to notice a significant trend: missionaries in China were increasingly unable to return to the mainland due to new policy changes. This observation inspired the idea of starting a ministry dedicated to helping missionaries quickly adapt to the local culture here, enabling them to serve more effectively while preserving their Chinese language skills. Most people in Taiwan speak Mandarin Chinese, so maintaining language proficiency is crucial, especially since many missionaries still hope to return to Mainland China one day.
在我們定居台灣一年後，我開始注意到一個趨勢：由於政策變動，許多在中國的宣教士無法再返回大陸。這促使我萌生了創立一個專門幫助宣教士快速了解當地文化的事工的想法，旨在讓他們能更有效地服事同時保持中文語言能力。台灣的大多數人講普通話，而保持語言能力對於那些仍希望將來能返回中國大陸的宣教士來說至關重要。
Below are the introductions of several missionaries we have hosted over the years:
以下是我們多年來接待的幾位宣教士的介紹:
Thus, the "Chinese Livingstone Cultural Exchange" ministry was founded with 30 dedicated members. Over the years, the Lord has accomplished things beyond my wildest dreams. Pastor D and J, a remarkable couple whom we proudly welcomed and befriended, have become a tremendous blessing to a bilingual church in northern Taiwan. They serve as invaluable mentors to the young pastors who established the church. Pastor D disciples young people from various nations and challenges them to embrace the Great Commission with passion.
因此，“中華活石文化交流展望協會”在30位創始成員的支持下隆重成立。多年來，主在這個事工中所成就的事超乎我的一切想像。我們驕傲地接待了D牧師和J牧師這對卓越的夫婦，他們如今成為台灣北部一間雙語教會的巨大祝福，擔任年輕牧師的指導者，輔導那些植堂的年輕牧者。D牧師在這裡教導來自不同國家的年輕人，挑戰他們勇敢地擁抱大使命。
Pastor L is another extraordinary Spirit-led missionary we are privileged to have received. With a decade of mission experience in Mainland China, he is fluent in Chinese but found himself unable to return to the mainland. I was introduced to him through a mutual friend in the US. His keen understanding of the cultural differences between the mainland and the island has empowered him to effectively preach the gospel to the people in Taiwan. His ministry has led many Buddhist individuals to the Lord through his impactful encounters. He equips churches with signs and wonders, disciples people to follow the Lord, and continues to reach out to people in China via the internet. We are deeply honored to have him among us.
L牧師是另一位我們非常榮幸接待的卓越聖靈引導的宣教士。他曾在中國大陸進行了十年的宣教工作，精通中文，但卻發現自己無法回到大陸。我們通過在美國的共同朋友認識了他。他敏銳地識別出大陸與台灣之間的文化差異，使他能夠有效地向台灣人民傳講福音。許多佛教徒通過與他的接觸而歸向主。他以神蹟奇事裝備教會，帶領人們跟隨主，並通過互聯網繼續在中國進行門徒訓練。我們深感榮幸能夠接待他。

Putting discipleship into the hands of everyone is what the Danners are all about. They live as a family on a mission, helping people discover their true identity as children of God and empowering them to do the same with others. They work with the local church through speaking, preaching, teaching, and leading worship, while spending most of their time outside the four walls of the church building. The Lord has opened doors in various cultural spheres, allowing them to carry His Kingdom into places of influence. Clay Danner's impact on discipleship is extraordinary, with some of his disciples also training others—true multiplication. Over the years, their influence has extended to high-profile individuals. Clay serves as the chaplain for the New Taipei City Kings basketball team, which recently clinched the national championship. Beyond that, he is equipping individuals to serve as chaplains for professional basketball and baseball teams, making a profound impact across the music, art, and athletic worlds. They open their home to many whom the Lord has brought their way and love seeing how the Lord uses their daughters in building His Kingdom.
將門徒訓練交到每個人的手中，這就是Danners一家所致力的。他們以家庭為單位進行宣教，幫助人們發現自己作為神之子的真正身份，並賦予他們同樣去幫助他人的能力。他們通過演講、講道、教導和帶領敬拜與當地教會合作，同時大部分時間是在教會建築的四面牆外度過。主開啟了各種文化領域的大門，使他們能夠將祂的國度帶到有影響力的地方。Clay Danner在門徒訓練方面的影響力非同凡響，他的一些門徒也在培訓他人——真正的倍增效應。多年來，他們的影響力已經擴展到一些高知名度的人士。Clay擔任新北國王籃球隊的牧師，該隊最近奪得了全國冠軍。除此之外，他還在培訓個人成為職業籃球和棒球隊的牧師，在音樂、藝術和體育界產生了深遠的影響。他們對許多主帶到他們身邊的人敞開家門，並且喜愛看到主如何使用他們的女兒來建立祂的國度。
Joshua and Esther are a Taiwanese couple called to serve in the Middle East. They have undertaken two short-term mission trips there and plan to return for long-term missions by the end of 2025 to share the gospel with the Muslim community. We encourage more people of Oriental descent to consider missions in the Middle East, where they often receive a favorable reception. Historically, Caucasians have faced challenges in the region due to past events and the Crusades, which can impact their effectiveness in mission work. In contrast, people of Oriental descent are often well-received in the Middle East due to our longstanding history of seeking to help. We are very proud to mentor Joshua and Esther during their preparation period in Taiwan, and they are an integral part of the Back to Jerusalem movement.
約書亞和以斯帖是一對台灣夫婦，他們被呼召到中東服事。他們已經進行了兩次短期宣教旅行，並計劃於2025年底前返回，展開長期宣教工作，向穆斯林社群傳福音。我們鼓勵更多的東方人考慮前往中東宣教，因為當地對東方面孔的接納度較高。歷史上，因為過去的事件和十字軍東征，白人在該地區面臨挑戰，這可能影響他們的宣教效果。相對而言，東方人在中東地區因我們長期以來的援助歷史而受到高度青睞。我們非常驕傲能在台灣期間指導約書亞和以斯帖，他們是“回到耶路撒冷”運動的重要成員。
Pastor Daniel and his family lead the ministry Continents For Christ, where they train, send, and pastor missionaries worldwide. In addition to supporting missionaries, they are deeply passionate about the power of prayer and ministering in churches and rural villages that receive little support from the Body of Christ. Daniel believes in Taiwan's destiny to ignite revival across Mainland China and back to Jerusalem. Whenever they come to Taiwan, young people are drawn to their home and meetings to pray. We are truly honored to be the organization that welcomes them.
丹尼爾牧師和他的家人領導「萬國為基督」事工，致力於培訓、差派並牧養世界各地的宣教士。他們不僅支持宣教士，還對禱告的力量和在基督身體很少照顧的教會和鄉村服事充滿熱情。丹尼爾相信台灣有點燃大陸中國復興，並回到耶路撒冷的命定。每當他們來到台灣，年輕人總是被吸引到他們的家或聚會中禱告。我們非常榮幸能成為接待他們的機構。

It is not surprising that when you live in a missionary community, sooner or later, you will encounter mature and influential leaders in the body of Christ. One such leader is Pastor Scott Last of Dynamic Church Planting International (DCPI), which has equipped 522,092 leaders to plant over 1.3 million churches across the globe since 1992. On average, for every leader trained, two churches will be born in time! Scott is the World Zone Leader for North Africa, the Middle East, and the “Stan” countries (think “Afghanistan” or “Pakistan”). He visits his missionary daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren yearly and has been praying to bring DCPI training through a local son of peace.
His daughter introduced us, and since 2019, we have trained over 350 leaders in Taiwan. DCPI is the first ministry organization we have received, and we have seen firsthand the incredible impact of their training. When a nation is equipped with all eight available training tracks, a church-planting movement can be expected, resulting in hundreds or even thousands of new churches.
If you wish to be part of this movement, please don't hesitate to contact us. We urgently need skilled translators to make all these trainings available in Chinese, helping to spread the gospel and foster church growth in our region.
當你生活在宣教士社區時，遇見成熟且有影響力的基督徒領袖是遲早的事。其中一位是來自國際動態植堂事工（Dynamic Church Planting International，簡稱DCPI）的 Scott Last 牧師。自1992年以來，DCPI 已經裝備了522,092位領袖，幫助他們在全球植立超過130萬間教會。平均來說，每位受訓的領袖最終都會誕生兩間教會！
Scott 是北非、中東和“斯坦”國家（如“阿富汗”或“巴基斯坦”）的全球區域領袖。他每年都會探望他的宣教士女兒、女婿和孫子孫女，並一直祈禱能通過當地的和平之子引進DCPI的培訓。
他的女兒介紹我們認識，從2019年起，我們在台灣已經訓練了超過350位領袖。DCPI 是我們接待的第一個事工組織，我們親眼見證了他們培訓的巨大影響力。當一個國家完成所有八個可用的培訓課程後，可以期待一個教會植堂運動，從而誕生數百甚至數千間新教會。
如果你希望成為這個運動的一部分，請不要猶豫與我們聯繫。我們急需優秀的翻譯人員，將所有這些培訓資料翻譯成中文，幫助傳福音並促進我們地區教會的成長。

By the end of 2019, we had the incredible opportunity to connect with the movement leaders of World 4 Jesus (www.world4jesus.com). This movement has led to more than a million souls being born again in the Philippines, quadrupled the Christian population in Ireland, and resulted in a 20% increase in the Christian population in the Bahamas. They believe that the Republic of China is the next nation poised for such a transformative revival. I visited the movement's key leaders in Chicago in January 2020 and have been actively preparing to welcome a similar revival in our country. For the latest updates on this exciting movement, please visit www.ROC4J.com.
到2019年底，我們有幸與 World 4 Jesus（www.world4jesus.com）運動的領袖們接觸。這個運動在菲律賓使超過百萬靈魂重生，在愛爾蘭使基督徒人數增長了四倍，在巴哈馬則使基督徒人口增長了20%。他們相信中華民國將成為下一個經歷這種翻轉性復興的國家。我於2020年1月在芝加哥拜訪了該運動的核心領袖，並積極準備迎接類似的復興在我們國家開始。欲了解該運動的最新動態，請造訪 www.ROC4J.com。

Bible League International's Bible-Based Literacy program has significantly contributed to the growth of churches globally by providing essential literacy skills through a biblical foundation. The program equips individuals with the ability to read and understand the Bible, fostering personal spiritual growth and deeper engagement with scripture. This increased literacy empowers church members to participate more actively in church activities, including teaching, preaching, and leading worship. As a result, communities experience strengthened faith and unity. Additionally, the program's focus on practical and applicable biblical teachings helps address social issues, promoting moral and ethical development. By transforming lives and communities through literacy and the Word of God, Bible League International's program has been instrumental in expanding church memberships and nurturing vibrant, self-sustaining congregations worldwide.
聖經聯盟國際的聖經識字課程在全球教會增長中發揮了重要作用，通過聖經基礎提供基本的識字技能。該課程使個人能夠閱讀和理解聖經，促進個人的靈命成長和對聖經的深入參與。這種識字能力的提高使教會成員能夠更積極地參與教會活動，包括教學、講道和帶領敬拜。因此，社區的信仰和團結得到了加強。此外，該課程專注於實用和應用的聖經教導，有助於解決社會問題，促進道德和倫理發展。通過識字和神的話語改變生命和社區，聖經聯盟國際的課程在擴大教會成員和培育充滿活力、自我維持的會眾方面發揮了重要作用。
Through the introduction of Sister Joanna in the USA, we became acquainted with this ministry. They train church leaders to use their Bible-Based Literacy materials, provided free of charge by the ministry, to teach basic English. When students complete the materials, they can communicate effectively with foreigners or missionaries and achieve an English proficiency equivalent to a third-grade level in the USA. Students can continue to excel in English by using their Bible study materials and downloading the Easy-to-Read version of the Bible. It is an excellent tool for local evangelism.
透過在美國的 Joanna 姊妹介紹，我們了解了這個事工。他們培訓教會領袖使用由事工免費提供的聖經基礎識字教材來教授基本英語。當學生完成這些教材後，他們能夠與外國人或傳教士有效溝通，並達到相當於美國三年級的英語水平。學生可以繼續使用他們的聖經學習材料並下載易讀版聖經來精進英語。這是一個非常出色的本地宣教工具。
So far, we have trained over 100 Chinese brothers and sisters, and several churches have already incorporated this program into their community outreach efforts.
迄今為止，我們已經培訓了超過100位華人兄弟姐妹，幾個教會也已經將這個課程納入他們的社區拓展計劃中。
I am writing all these things not to impress you but to impress upon you that a simple act of obedience to the Lord can accomplish much more than you can imagine. Ten years ago, we followed an impression the Lord placed upon us, and look at what He has done in and through Taiwan! In the coming years, I already sense the Lord will send us to the Philippines, Japan, China, the Middle Eastern nations, and Israel. Over the past five years, we have connected with missionaries and pastors from these nations, and it is no coincidence that the Lord has brought us together. Little did we know that these nations would be united by the Lord as one to bring the Gospel all the way back to Jerusalem!
我寫這些並不是為了讓你佩服，而是想讓你明白，對主的一個簡單順服行動可以成就遠超過你想像的事。十年前，我們順服了主給我們的感動，看看主在台灣也藉著台灣所成就的事！在未來的歲月裡，我已經感受到主將會差遣我們到菲律賓、日本、中國、中東各國和以色列。在過去的五年裡，我們已經與來自這些國家的宣教士和牧師建立了聯繫，主讓我們相聚並非巧合。我們沒想到這些國家會被主聯合起來，把福音一路帶回耶路撒冷！
For the past ten years, my wife has worked as a school teacher in a Christian school, and I have tutored by teaching English lessons. This has been enough to cover our living expenses as a family with two kids. Whenever we have a training event, the Lord always provides by inspiring people to donate without us even asking! Now, we can't go to these nations without your prayers and financial support, especially since some of these locations still face danger and persecution. The place we stay in the Philippines is known to have rebels who abduct and sometimes kill missionaries.
在過去的十年裡，我妻子在一所基督教學校擔任教師，而我通過教英語課程進行輔導，這足以支付我們一家四口的生活費用。每當我們舉辦訓練活動時，主總會感動人們捐款，而我們甚至不需要開口！現在，我們無法在沒有你的禱告和經濟支持下前往這些國家，特別是一些地區仍然面臨危險和迫害。我們在菲律賓所居住的地方，已知有叛軍存在，他們不時會綁架和殺害宣教士。
For the past ten years, I have actually felt proud of not having to raise funds for missions, but lately, the Lord has impressed upon me that I am not allowing the body of Christ to share in the rewards! As 1 Samuel 30:24 says: "The share of the man who stayed with the supplies is to be the same as that of him who went down to the battle. All will share alike.” Fundraising allows the body of Christ to share in these rewards! Actually, I never believed that the work of a missionary is more noble than any other work. Whatever role we play, it is the most effective for the Kingdom when it is where the Lord wants us to be. Perhaps one day I will be the businessman who supports a dozen frontline missionaries if that is the role the King of Kings wants for me. However, I do not want fundraising to be just for my mission. The missionaries we encounter and endorse in Taiwan have God-given missions that are just as important in fulfilling the Great Commission. The hyperlink page will allow you to participate in various missions, all of which are part of the Great Commission. Click to go to the page. Or, you can use the form right below.
過去的十年裡，我一直為不需要籌款來做宣教工作而感到自豪，但最近主提醒我，這樣做其實是讓基督的身體無法分享這些獎賞！正如撒母耳記上30:24所說：「與器具同住的，要和上陣打仗的同分。」籌款讓基督的身體也能分享這些獎賞！其實，我從來不認為宣教士的工作比其他工作更高尚。我們所扮演的角色，不論在哪裡、是什麼，只要是主所要我們做的，就是對神國度最有效的。也許有一天，我會成為支持十幾位前線宣教士的商人，如果那是萬王之王為我安排的角色。然而，我不希望籌款只為了我自己的使命。我們在台灣遇到並支持的宣教士們，他們由神賦予的使命同樣重要，都在履行大使命。超連結頁面將讓你參與各種使命，它們都是大使命的一部分。點擊進入頁面。

All will share alike.” Fundraising allows the body of Christ to share in these rewards! Actually, I never believed that the work of a missionary is more noble than any other work. Whatever role we play, it is the most effective for the Kingdom when it is where the Lord wants us to be. Perhaps one day I will be the businessman who supports a dozen frontline missionaries if that is the role the King of Kings wants for me. However, I do not want fundraising to be just for my mission. The missionaries we encounter and endorse in Taiwan have God-given missions that are just as important in fulfilling the Great Commission.

過去的十年裡，我一直為不需要籌款來做宣教工作而感到自豪，但最近主提醒我，這樣做其實是讓基督的身體無法分享這些獎賞！正如撒母耳記上30:24所說：「與器具同住的，要和上陣打仗的同分。」籌款讓基督的身體也能分享這些獎賞！其實，我從來不認為宣教士的工作比其他工作更高尚。我們所扮演的角色，不論在哪裡、是什麼，只要是主所要我們做的，就是對神國度最有效的。也許有一天，我會成為支持十幾位前線宣教士的商人，如果那是萬王之王為我安排的角色。然而，我不希望籌款只為了我自己的使命。我們在台灣遇到並支持的宣教士們，他們由神賦予的使命同樣重要，都在履行大使命。超連結頁面將讓你參與各種使命，它們都是大使命的一部分。點擊進入頁面。
