Rural Church Rebuilt in Fujian

1月7日，福建省龙岩市白沙捷步基督教会举行新堂落成感恩典礼暨为福建神学院招生工作代祷宣传活动。

首先举行了感恩崇拜。李治椿牧师以《我们到底在做什么——我们的使命》为题证道。

接着举行为福建神学院招生工作代祷宣传活动。福建神学院是培养全省教职人员的唯一神学院校，希望包括边远农村在内的八闽教会同心为福建神学院的招生工作多作代祷宣传工作。

后记：龙岩白沙捷步基督教会新堂不足六十平米，可以说是全世界最小的教堂，但它的作用却绝对不会是最小的。新堂从购置村民闲置菜地、晒谷坪及道路，到设计图纸，无不彰显上主的大能及弟兄姐妹的同心努力。

A village church in Fujian Province held a service regarding its reconstruction, also launching a publicity campaign for the enrollment of Fujian Theological Seminary.

During the service on January 7, Rev. Li Zhichun preached a sermon titled "What Are We Doing? — Our Mission", Longyan TSPM reported.

Later, to celebrate the completion, they hosted a ceremony, in which the head of Jiebu Village Church in Baisha Town, Longyan, made a brief introduction to the construction of the new church and gave a financial report.

Then, an activity was conducted to promote the recruitment of Fujian Theological Seminary, which is the only base for training pastors in the province. So, it needs prayers and publicity work from Fujian churches, including those in remote rural areas.

Covering less than 60 square meters (0.015 acres), it may be the smallest church in the world, though definitely not the least useful one. From the purchase of the villagers’ idle vegetable plots and threshing floors, to the design drawings, it all demonstrates the power of the Lord and the efforts of the believers.
