To Care To Change To Commission | 性命 生命 使命

We live in a world full of brokenness. At times, we are wounded by the sins of others; at times, we stumble because of our own weakness. Yet it is through these cracks that the grace of God shines in, illuminating our darkness, and revealing that His power is made perfect in human weakness.

For thirty-six years, Living Hope Global Ministries has been serving in places of brokenness. There, we have witnessed both pain and miracles—the hungry being fed, the weary shepherds renewed in strength, and the forgotten finding hope and new life in Christ.
This summer, one of our short-term mission teams served at a small church in Honduras. They helped with children’s ministry, provided medical care, and helped the church build a protective wall. That day, the courtyard rang with the laughter of children. Among them was a boy named Isaac, whose radiant smile lit up the whole place. It might have been the happiest day of his life.

Yet two weeks after the team left, we received heartbreaking news— Isaac’s father, under the influence of drugs, had violently beaten him. When our local coworkers rushed to visit, they found him hiding under the bed, trembling and too frightened to come out. With tears in their eyes, they told us, “Isaac’s story is only one among countless children suffering in this land.”

It is for children like Isaac that God has called Living Hope Global Ministries to serve. He has entrusted us with a mission—
 
     To Care for lives, comforting the wounded and strengthening the weak;
     To Change lives, proclaiming the gospel of redemption and hope;
     To Commission forth lives, carrying God’s love and truth to the ends of the earth.

May the Lord who has called us into His mission strengthen our faith with His love, and renew our vision with His light. Whatever lies ahead, may we walk together in unity, continuing to serve with faith and hope— until the day His glory fills the earth.

With gratitude and blessing,

我们生活在一个破碎的世界里。有时，我们因他人的罪而受伤；有时，我们因自己的软弱而跌倒。然而，正是那些破碎与裂缝，让神的恩典有了渗透的空间，祂的光从缝隙照进来，让我们看见祂的能力，正是在人的软弱上显得完全。

三十六年来，新希望全球事工走入世界的破碎角落，在那里，我们看见泪水与盼望并行，听见叹息与赞美交织。我们见证饥饿的孩子得饱足，疲惫的牧者重新得力，被遗忘的灵魂在基督里重新找到生命的意义与希望。

今年夏天，我们的一支短宣队来到洪都拉斯，在一间小教会中服事。他们带领儿童活动、提供医疗支援、帮助教会建起围墙。那一天，院子里回荡着孩子们纯真的笑声——其中一个名叫以撒的小男孩，笑得特别灿烂。那或许，是他短暂生命中最快乐的一天。

然而，两周后传来的消息，却令人心碎——以撒的父亲因吸毒失控，回家殴打了他。当我们的当地同工赶去探望，只见他蜷缩在床底下，浑身颤抖，不敢出来。同工含着泪告诉我们：以撒的故事，只是这个国家无数受苦孩子的缩影。

正是为了这些像以撒一样的孩子，神呼召新希望全球事工前行。祂托付我们去——

        关怀性命，安慰受伤、扶持软弱；
        更新生命，宣扬救赎与盼望的福音；
        差派使命，将爱与真理传递到地极。

愿那呼召我们一同参与祂使命的主，以祂的爱坚固我们的信心，以祂的光更新我们的异象。
无论前路多艰难，愿我们同心前行，在信心与盼望中继续服事，直到那荣耀的日子来临。

怀着感恩与祝福，
