2023 週年大會

25 Nov 2023

普世基督徒默禱團體2023年度AGM週年大會於11月25日假北角聖猶達堂順利舉行。一如既往,蒙教區秘書長李亮神父親臨,為本會主持感恩聖祭並旁聽會議;本會聯絡人李慧雲、小組組長們及數十會員列席,共同回顧及展望。

 

在今年度週年會議上,本篤會在俗會士肖筱根據列王紀上19:9-13 中有關厄里亞的故事,給了我們一個富啟發性的短講。當上主即將經過時,先知厄里亞被要求站在山上,立於主前,但先知並沒有從暴風中、地震中或烈火中聽到主的聲音,而是從「輕微細弱的風聲」中聽到主的聲音。肖筱巧妙地把厄里亞與上主對話的經歷比擬作默禱,只有當我們安靜下來時,我們才能聽到天主的聲音,因天主是以「輕微細弱的聲音」在我們心內說話的。

 

會後於鄰近酒樓延開數席,與一眾喜愛默禱的神長及友好共進豐富晚餐,塲面溫馨,和樂融融!

 

 

On 25 November, WCCM (HK) held its Annual General Meeting at St Jude’s Church in North Point. In keeping with the past, the Chancellor of the Catholic Diocese, Father Lawrence Lee, honoured us with his presence and celebrated Eucharistic Mass for us. Our Coordinator, Vivian Lee, and our many group leaders presented reports, while dozens of members listened to the progress we have made and looked ahead to plans for the coming year.

 

During our AGM, Benedictine Oblate gave an inspirational talk based on the story of Elijah from 1 Kings 19:9-13.  The prophet Elijah was asked to stand on the mountain as the Lord was about to pass by. But the prophet did not hear the Lord in the wind, earthquake nor fire, but in a "still, small voice." Augustine likened Elijah's experience to meditation, when we can hear God only when we are still and silent, for God speaks with a "still, small voice" in our hearts. 

 

After the meeting, the members went to a nearby restaurant and were joined by clergy and individuals who are friends of meditation for a warm gathering and delicious food.
