平安谷華人基督教會的事工有四個面向:向上、向內、向外、支援。

There are four phases of ministries at PVCCC: upward, inward, outward, and infrastructure.

PVCCC_Plan

向上:崇拜部門,主要事工為主日崇拜及禱告會。我們相信合神心意的崇拜不是出於我們個人的喜好,而是出於神的啟示。聖經說「他們供奉的事,本是天上事的形狀和影像,正如摩西將要造帳幕的時候,蒙神警戒他,說『你要謹慎,作各樣的物件,都要照著在山上指示你的樣式。』」(來8:5;出25:40;26:30;27:8).

Upward Phase: Department of Worship, mainly in charge of Sunday Worship Service and Prayer Meeting.  We believe that a true worship is not based on our preference but the revelation of God.  The Bible says, “They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, ‘See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain’” (Heb 8:5; Ex 25:40; 26:30; 27:8). Pastor Huang is in charge of this department (215)808-4920.

向內:關懷部門與教導部門,主要事工為小組、探訪、查經班、成人、青年、兒童主日學、門徒訓練及退休會。我們相信按時分糧給家裡的人是主人對好管家的託付。主耶穌說「誰是忠心有見識的僕人,為主人所派,管理家裡的人,按時分糧給他們呢?」(太24:45;路12:42).

Inward Phase: Departments of Caring and Teaching, mainly in charge of Bible Study Fellowship, Visitation, Sunday School, Disciple Training and Retreat.  We believe that a good steward is to provide spiritual food for the family at proper time. Lord Jesus Christ asks, “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time?” (Mt 24:45; Lk 12:42).

向外:福音部門與宣教部門,主要事工為福音隊、佈道會、短宣隊、支持宣教士及教會際連結。我們相信大使命是主耶穌升天前托付給門徒最重要的使命,也是聖靈降臨最主要的原因。耶穌進前來,對他們說:天上地下所有的權柄都賜給我了。所以,你們要去,使萬民作我的門徒,奉父、子、聖靈的名給他們施洗。凡我所吩咐你們的,都教訓他們遵守,我就常與你們同在,直到世界的末了。」(太28:18-20;可16:15-19;路24:44-49).

Outward Phase: Departments of Evangelism and Mission, mainly in charge of evangelism, mission, and inter-ecclesiastical connections. We believe in the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ as He has sent the Holy Spirit upon His church to fulfill this task. Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matt 28:18-20; Mk 16:15-19; Lk 24:44-49)

支援:總務部門、財務部門、通訊部門,主要事工為建築物管理、飯食、司庫、出納、文書、通訊、網路。我們相信神藉著教會設立執事、長老是為了以屬靈原則管理教會,並且能使神的道興旺。正如聖經所說「人若不知道管理自己的家,焉能照管神的教會呢?」(提前3:5;徒6:1-7).

Infra Phase: Departments of General Affairs, Finance, and Communication, mainly in charge of building maintenance, food, finance, communication, and internet. We believe a main reason God raises Elders and Deacons at Church is to run His Church with spiritual principles so that the Word may prosper. The Bible says, “If someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God’s church?” (1 Tim 3:5; Acts 6:1-7).
