We thank the Lord for leading the East Bay Churches in pursuing "the up-to-date truth" according to the ministry of the age in a definite way since February of last year. We are endeavoring to take the way of constitution by practicing Pray-Reading, Studying, Reciting and Prophesying (PSRP):
We will pursue and practice together every Saturday. For this coming year, may the Lord "Teach us then to number our days/ That we may gain a heart of wisdom" to redeem our Saturday mornings to buy the truth.
We are thankful to the Lord that He has led us to a wonderful opportunity to be perfected by the Lord through the Working Saints Perfecting Fellowship. The goal of this fellowship is to perfect and equip the saints on how to serve the Lord and the saints in the proper church life. This fellowship is not exclusive to any particular age group and we strongly encourage older saints to also join and come alongside the working saints that we may all advance and be further blended as we are equipped to serve the Lord. We would like to particularly encourage sisters to join this time as the advancement of God’s economy in the church life very much depends on this group.
For this perfecting; registration is not required, attendance for each session is not mandatory and there is no fee. We hope that the saints would be burdened to practice these things seriously but we also realize there are many other time constraints on the working saints and as such this perfecting time will not demand or require the participating saints to go beyond their capacity.
Next meeting
Please add the following dates to your schedule for additional Working Saints Perfecting Fellowship meetings:
We want to provide further clarity on the gathering October 14, 2023 from 10 AM - 1 PM at the meeting hall of the church in Santa Clara with brother Minoru.
This gathering will begin a series of training by brother Minoru on shepherding as an urgent and crucial need among us. The goal of this training is that we see the vision and pick up the burden of shepherding eventually to learn the pattern and the practice of shepherding. This training is open to all saints, younger and older, and especially the seeking ones and the serving ones. We also expect two additional sessions for the remainder of this year, on November 4 and December 9 respectively, which will be conducted on-line.
Please download the document below. It includes prayer burdens, verses and ministry excerpts related to this training. We encourage you to use this document individually, in companion groups, during church prayer meetings or in other settings to enter into the burden of this training and release the Lord’s blessing.
According to Lamentations 3:40 “Let us examine our ways and try them, And let us turn again to Jehovah…” that we would be one with the Lord in His shepherding ministry,
