Danny’s Story of Faith | 友龍的見證

Hello, I’m Danny. I have believed in the Lord Jesus for over thirty years. I was born in Hong Kong and immigrated to the United States in my thirties. Time has flown by, and I’ve lived in the US for more than 20 years now.

Before I believed in Jesus, I was a utilitarian person in Hong Kong.  I was primarily focused on making money and had three jobs at one point. Due to my poor academic performance, I was eager to earn more money as fast as I could. Unfortunately,  I also picked up the habit of smoking, drinking, and gambling during my work, and I had no real goals or direction in life.

But one day, a colleague invited me to a gospel meeting in church, and I attended. In fact, I had attended a Christian school when I was in primary school. I took it for granted that I knew many of the Bible doctrines. Initially, I was just socializing with my colleagues, and I did not expect much from this invitation to church.

But that was a special day. I remembered that the speaker was teaching about biblical sciences. As I listened, something inside me clicked, and I realized that there must be a Creator behind this world. I also remember noticing a beam of light shining through a hole in the corridor canopy (our church was poor then), and at that moment, I realized that so many things around us already existed. Still, we didn’t pay attention to or study them.  It was then that I made the decision to believe in God.

Since that day, I have continued to pray, read the Bible, and fellowship with my brothers and sisters in Christ. Through these experiences, I have fully understood and accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior. One verse that has particularly touched me is –

“He who loved me and gave Himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20)

The biggest change in my life since coming to know the Lord has been a shift in my values. I no longer place such a high importance on money and have learned that simplicity can bring true happiness. I have realized that what we have is already abundant and that it is important to appreciate and be content with what we have.

I hope that each of you will have the opportunity to receive the Lord Jesus Christ into your life. He is the true God and can be experienced in a very real and personal way. Amen!

你好，我是友龍. 我信了主耶穌有三十多年。我在香港出生，大約三十歲移民來美國。 轉眼都在美國生活了二十多年。

我未信耶穌之前， 其實是一個好功利的香港人。 比較喜歡賺錢。我試過同時間有三份工作。因為讀書成績不好， 只是想盡快多賺錢傍身。 當然在工作期間也學識了食煙，飲酒，賭錢。 基本上沒有什麼人生目標， 更加不知道什麼事人生意義。

不過有一天，有同事邀請我去一個福音聚會。  其實我本身在小學的時候都是就讀一間基督教小學。理所當然以為自己識了不少聖經或者道理。剛開始的時候都只是應酬一下同事，對這個聚會沒有什麼期望。

但是那一天好特別，因為我記得那一位講員講的是聖經科學道理。我才發覺這個世界可能真是有個創造者在背後。 我還記得因為當時教會比較貧窮， 在走廊簷蓬有一個洞。陽光曬了一條光柱出來。我當時發覺原來我們身邊有好多事物早已存在，只不過我們沒有留意或者研究 。所以當時我選擇了相信有神。後來再不斷地禱告， 看聖經，與弟兄姊妹相交， 才完全明白及接納了主耶穌基督為我的救主。 因為有一句聖經很感動我, 就是 –

「祂是愛我，為我捨己」 (加拉太書 2:20）

我信主後最大的改變，是不再這麼看重金錢。明白了簡單也是一種幸福。要多看看在我們的手裏已經擁有了很多東西。願你們都有機會去接受主耶穌基督。 祂是真神， 是能夠經歷的。  願你們也有機會真正的去認識祂。阿門！

Edward’s Story of Faith | 若龍的見證

Hello, I’m Edward, a biologist with a deep interest in the origins of life and the universe. Despite studying physics and biology, I could not find the source of everything or the meaning of life. I used to feel insecure and lacked confidence despite being praised for my height. I felt mediocre and had no unique talents or abilities, which made it hard for me to see my value or purpose in life.

I hoped to make more friends in high school, so I started attending church with my sister. Unexpectedly, I met Jesus and learned about His sacrifice on the cross for my sins. This experience deeply moved me, and I confessed my sins, repented, and accepted Jesus as my savior. Since then, my ordinary life has been filled with God’s love and forgiveness, and He has guided me through every stage of my life.

Even during stressful times, such as the Hong Kong A-Level exams and university entrance exams, my faith and constant prayers gave me peace. After finishing my last exam, I knew that Jesus was my Lord for life, and I decided to follow Him and be His disciple.

After graduating, I came to the United States through the miraculous “immigration lottery.” In addition to working, I dedicated myself to building the Oakland Church and helping people find the answers to life through faith. Through this journey, I found that God is the beginning of everything and that the meaning of life can only be found in Christ.

The Bible says, “Seek, and you shall find.” Matthew 7:7.

I hope that through our testimonies, you may begin your journey of seeking God.

大家好，我是郎若龍，我是一名生物科學家，自少對生命的來源和宇宙的開始十分感興趣。我從物理科和生物學中尋找答案，找到的是知識和定律，卻找不到萬物的根源，更找不到人生的意義。

我的個子高大，別人也會稱讚和羨慕，但我的內心卻充滿自卑，沒有自信，總覺得自己平庸得很；「多我一個唔多，少我一個唔少」(多我一個不多，少我一個也不少）。加上讀書和運動也是平平無奇…什麼也不是，完全看不見自己的價值，也不知為什麼而活。

中學時期希望認識多些朋友，所以跟姐姐去教會。卻在毫無準備的情況底下，我結交了一位新朋友，耶穌。

在聚會中，我聽見主耶穌一鞭一鞭的傷，十架上一滴一滴流出的血，原來都是為了我，都是因為我所犯的罪。我當時十分感動，心裏懷着感恩認罪悔改，並接受耶穌作我的救主。之後有無數的基督徒來握手道賀，恭喜我信了主，比我還要興奮。當日的情景在30多年後的今天仍然歷歷在目，記憶猶新。

信主後我沒有變超人，更沒有成為聖人。而我這個凡人的生命中卻充滿了神的愛和寬恕。在人生中每一個關口都有祂的帶領。還記得面對香港A-Level全港大學公開試的壓力甚大，但因信了主，常常祈禱，反而覺得比中五會考更平安。考完最後一課心裏滿有感動。我認定所信的耶穌就是我一生的主。 我下定決心一生跟從主，作祂的門徒。

畢業後，神奇妙的透過「抽籤移民」帶我來到美國。正值當時屋崙教會開展，我除了工作，就投身於建立教會的事工上，希望透過信仰幫助人尋找人生的答案，認識愛我們的神。在幫人的同時我也找到了從前在書本中找不到的答案。原來神就是一切的開始，他創造萬物，賦予生命。而人生的意思亦只能在基督裏方能找到。

聖經說：「尋找，就尋見。」太七：7

希望大家透過我們的見證，展開尋求神的旅程。

Mei Hung’s Story of Faith | 薇紅的見證

Hello everyone. My name is Mei Hung.  I used to struggle with poor family relationships and frequent arguments that made me feel miserable. My father often had outbursts of rage at home, and my mother said the whole floor would shake when my father shouted. As a result, I became emotionally numb and often cried due to my father’s scolding. I despised him and dreamed of leaving home and never returning.

Growing up, I lacked self-confidence because I rarely received compliments, and my relatives often criticized me for being skinny and dark. My parents also made me feel inadequate, saying that I was stupid and had no brains, which made me insecure. 

One day, a high school classmate invited me to church, which surprised me since she had a questionable background. But since I had nothing to do, I decided to join her. That day, I witnessed something remarkable – the church was full of people, and everyone eagerly awaited the service. During the church service, they talked about Jesus being crucified for our sins, which deeply touched me. Furthermore, the people there were very friendly and welcoming, and I felt moved by their passion and beautiful smiles. That day, I prayed and accepted Jesus as my Lord.

Since then, my life has changed significantly. I felt lighter and happier inside, even though my father continued to scold me and get angry. I was no longer afraid of him and instead prayed for him and asked Jesus to change him. Although I sometimes cried when he scolded me, I improved significantly. The emptiness inside me disappeared because Jesus is living with me. I found peace and comfort by reading the Bible and praying to God whenever I was unhappy. His words give me the strength to face difficulties. 

After accepting Jesus as my Lord,  I no longer hated my father. Instead, I actively worked to love, care for, and accept him. It was a transformative experience for me! I never thought I could forgive my father, but through God’s grace, I could do so. I even invited him to attend parent’s day banquets and travel activities organized by the church, and our relationship improved significantly. In addition, I frequently prayed for him, hoping he would also come to believe in the same God as I did one day. And to my joy, later on, my father also accepted Jesus as his Lord. Praise be to God!

Jesus transformed me in remarkable ways, giving me the power I had never felt before. I stayed up late at night to study and willingly did household chores. My transformation amazed my mother, and she was surprised by my new-found energy and drive. Later, she, too, came to believe in Jesus and felt the same joy and peace I experienced.

As I continued to put my faith in Jesus, I could rely on His strength to do many things I never thought possible. From taking public exams, attending job interviews, sharing the gospel with strangers on the street, studying in the United States, and even driving a car, Jesus gave me the courage and confidence to face any challenge. I am so grateful for His grace and love, and I know He is truly a wonderful Savior who can transform anyone who believes in Him.

大家好，我叫薇紅。從前的我是一個很不快樂的人。因著家人關係不好，時常吵架，我差不多每天都會哭。父親常常在家中大發雷霆。我媽說父親大喝一聲，全層樓都會震動似的。我經常因著父親的大罵而令我哭得手腳麻痹。我心裡真的很恨他，想著有一天我要離開這個家不再回來。

從前我做什麼事情都沒信心，因為從小就很少人稱讚我。親友都常說我又黑又瘦。父母又常說我又蠢又笨，沒有腦袋。這都令我非常自卑。

有一次，我的高中同學約我去教會。我真好奇為什麼她會約我去教會呢？因為她從前很壞，是一個有些背景的人。但因為我沒事做便跟她去教會了。那天很特別，在教會大廈樓下的空地都滿了人。我在想是否有學校活動或是旅行？後來才知道全部都是等待上教會的！我更好奇，有什麼好東西，那麼多人去？在教會聚會中，我很深刻，很多人過來跟我握手歡迎我。他們很熱情和笑容都很吸引我。聚會當中講到耶穌為我的罪而被釘在十字架上。我很感動，便跟着禱告信主了。

從那天開始，我的心不再一樣。我的心輕鬆了很多，跳著走回家。回到家中雖然父親仍然是一樣的又罵又發脾氣，但我開始不再害怕。我為父親祈禱，求主耶穌幫助他，改變他。雖然我有時仍然會因被罵而流淚，但已經好了很多。我心中不再是空空的，而是有一位活生生的耶穌住在我心裡。我何時可以向神禱告，心裡有平安。當我不開心的時候，我嘗試讀聖經，神的話安慰了我，鼓勵我，使我有心裡有力量面對困難。

我信耶穌之後，我不再恨我父親。我主動地去愛他，關心他，接納他。我會有這種改變實在很神奇！我從未想過我會原諒我父親。我更邀請父親去教會舉辦的父母親節晚宴，旅行活動等等。我們的關係改善了很多。我也常為他禱告，盼望他有一天會相信我所信的神。感謝神！之後父親也有信耶穌。

耶穌給我很驚人的動力。我在晚上讀書讀到很晚，我又願意主動做家務，我媽媽也很奇怪我有這樣的改變。後來我媽媽也信了耶穌。她也經歷到從主而得的喜樂和平安。

信主後，我能倚靠神所賜的信心去做很多事情。例如：公開考試、公司面試、在街上和陌生人分享天國的福音、在美國讀書、駕駛汽車等等。耶穌真是一位奇妙的救主！

Kenny’s Story of Faith | 銘聰的見證

When I was young in Hong Kong, I would get very excited when I saw Christians preaching about God on the bus to passengers, and I would silently cheer them on. I attended a church school in kindergarten, where I had my first formal encounter with God and thought that believing in Jesus was a good thing. However, when I went to high school and subscribed to Christian publications, I was still unclear about what it meant to have faith in God. Even Bible classes felt boring to me.

After I entered the workforce and worked night shifts at a hotel, I would steal those fancy pastries from the hotel when I was hungry late at night. I knew it was wrong, but I couldn’t change my behavior. At that time, I also lied frequently and often betrayed others. No matter how many times I resolved to change, I couldn’t accept my true self and improve.

My friends invited me to attend gospel meetings at six different churches. I raised my hand each time to indicate that I believed in Jesus, but my enthusiasm quickly faded each time. Then a boarding school roommate invited me to a church, and I finally decided to believe in and follow God. After I believed in God, He slowly transformed me. I began to value my relationships with people, stopped betraying others and lying, and became more outgoing and lively. I am no longer a shy person, and I have hope for life!

小時後我在香港看到有基督徒在巴士上向乘客傳講神，心裏會非常興奮，也會暗暗為這些基督徒打氣。我在幼稚園已讀教會學校。那時是第一次正式接觸神，覺得信耶穌是件好事。直至讀教會中學時，開始訂閱基督徒的刊物，但當時卻不清楚信主是什麼一回事。上聖經課也感覺很悶。直到出來社會做事，在酒店當通宵班，深夜肚子餓，我偷了酒店的高級西餅來吃。心中明知自己不對，但總無法改變自己的行為。那時講大話也當吃生菜 （常常說謊），又經常出賣人。無論立志多少次也無法改過及接受真正的自己。

朋友以前約我去教會福音聚會，我先後去過六間教會。每次我都舉手表示信主耶穌，但是每次都只得三分鈡熱度，都是無疾而終。記得有一次，一個寄宿學校室友邀請我去教會，我終於決心信主和跟隨祂。信主後神慢慢地改變我。我開始重視與人的關系，不再出賣人，不再說謊。從前是個怕羞仔（沉默寡言），現在人變得越來越開朗活潑，也對人生充滿希望！

Paul’s Story of Faith | Paul 的見證

“When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider this: God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, no one can discover anything about their future.” (Ecclesiastes 7:14)

One day as I was helping my aunt, I learned about heart disease symptoms and noticed I had the same symptoms for months now. Unexpectedly, I didn’t know it was that bad. So, I went to do a heart stress test on Fri morning. I ended up in San Francisco Kaiser Cardiac division that evening, waiting for my quadruple bypass surgery that weekend. It all happened really fast. It was terrifying. A lot of different thoughts have gone through my mind.

Most importantly, God gave me peace. Not a promise that guarantees my recovery. It is a peace of knowing God is in control. That God is on my side. Regardless of what happens, I know God will handle my worries (mainly around my family).

Ecclesiastes 7:14 ‬ tells me that the “good” and “bad” in life are equally from God. It is not meant to toy with me. It is all meant for good. I may not understand it at the time or during my lifetime on earth. But I know God is good. Now it has been two years after the surgery. I can honestly say it was a “positive” experience. I learned to be more sympathetic toward people that are going through sickness. I learned that life is not all roses and apple pies, and it is ok. God is really there along the way.

“遇亨通的日子你當喜樂；遭患難的日子你當思想；因為神使這兩樣並列，為的是叫人查不出身後有甚麼事。” (傳道書‬ ‭7:14‬)

有一天，我正在幫助我的阿姨同時，我也學到有關心臟疾病的症狀。然後我發現自己也有幾個月出現了這些相同的症狀。但是，我不知道它是如此嚴重。於是，那個星期五早上我去做了一個心臟負荷測試。當晚我便在三藩市 Kaiser 醫療中心的心臟科等待週末的四重搭橋手術。一切發生得那麼快，讓人感到非常惶恐。有許多不同的想法在我腦海中浮現。

但最重要的是，神給了我平安。這不是一個保證我康復的承諾，而是一種知道神掌握一切的平安。我知道神在我這邊，無論發生什麼事情，我知道神會處理我的憂慮（主要是關於我的家人）。

傳道書 7:14 告訴我，生命中的「好」和「壞」都是來自神。這不是為了玩弄我，而是要為了帶來好處。或許我當時甚至有生之年也無法理解它，但我知道神是良善的。現在手術已經過去了兩年，我可以肯定地說這是一個「好」的 經驗。我學會了對正在經歷疾病的人更有同情心。我學到了生命不都是一帆風順，但不要緊，神在這條路上真的一直都同在。

April’s Story of Faith | 秀蘭的見證

From a young age, I grew up in a low-income family that favored boys over girls. All the good things were saved for my younger brothers, but that didn’t make me dislike them. I knew that as their older sister, I was responsible for protecting them, so money was very important to me. Money also became my life goal.

As time went on, I became more and more exhausted. I worked during the day and went to school at night, and my health suffered. But then, in elementary school, I met God. It was just a surface-level understanding initially, but I continued working hard to earn money.

In 1982, however, I had a life-changing moment. I met up with a former elementary school classmate, a Christian. She said she was going to church to do some things and asked if I wanted to come with her. Of course, I said yes, and that decision changed my life. It brought me back to the God who loved me, and one Bible verse, in particular, changed my life’s pursuit. That is 

“What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?“ (Matthew 16:26)

Money can solve some problems in life, but it can’t buy happiness, spiritual satisfaction, or true love. Since coming to truly know the God who created the heavens and the earth and loved me enough to sacrifice His life for me on the cross through Jesus Christ, I have experienced happiness, freedom, love, and peace I never knew before. You’re welcome to join us if you also want to know this God of love, wisdom, abundance, and power. You’re welcome to join us. Every Christian is willing to share with you the changes in our lives since knowing Christ. We look forward to meeting you.

從小我生長於一個窮乏和重男輕女的家庭，所有好的東西都是留給弟弟們的，但我並別有因此而不喜歡我的弟弟們，因為我知道作為姐姐的責任，就是要保護好他們，所以錢對我來說十分重要。錢也是我人生追求的目標。

日子越過，就覺得越疲乏，日間工作，晚上返學，身體也越來越差，日子一天一天的就是這樣過去。

感謝神，小學時，我認識這位神，使我知道無論我怎樣，神也愛着我，但祇是表面上的認識，我繼續過着努力搵錢的生活，直到1982年，有一天和小學同學相約吃飯，想不到那一個晚上就是我扭轉人生的時刻，因為這位同學也是一位基督徒，她說要返教會做些事情先，問我要不要和她同去，我說好，這樣，踏入教會這一步就是改變我人生的好日子，使我重新認識這位愛我的神，聖經中的一句話，改變了我人生的追求 這句話就是

「人若賺得全世界，卻賠上了自己的生命，有什麼益處呢？人還能用什麼換取生命呢？」（太16:26）

是的，錢可以解決到一些生活上的問題，但它買不到快樂，心靈滿足和真正的愛，自從真正了解到真正認識這位創天造地的神和愛我為我在十字架上付出祂生命的主耶蘇基督，祂是愛我，為我捨己，一份完全毫無保留的愛，使我人生得到了以前從未有過的真快樂、真自由和真的愛，還有是真的平安，如果要每一樣都寫下，還要寫很久，

如果你也想認識這位全愛、全智、全豐、全能的上帝，歡迎你來到我們當中，我們每一位基督徒都願意與你分享我們信主人生的改變。等待與你的見面。
