主内牧师、长执、教会领袖,以及弟兄姐妹: 我们以上帝的慈悲、怜悯、信实与公义向大家问安。鉴于国难当头,国家急需更多的人民站出来对国家政治乱局的大是大非表达立场。我们来自全国各地的基督徒决定参与Bersih4.0所号召的上街和平集会运动,希望借此可以让全国人民看到不愿意与黑暗同流合污的人民还是有希望的。只要我们尊崇理性、和平、怜悯、慈悲、公义、民主、自由等等公共原则,我们是可以靠着上帝的公义与慈爱向已失控的政治乱局喊停的。


因此,我们诚心恳求大馬众教会为国家恆切祷告,恳求真理的圣灵感动更多基督徒以和平、公义和盼望的步伐勇敢站出來参与公共表态的运动,因为教会不应该成為沉默的一份子。当下的我们必须当机立断,敏感上帝所要求教会对不义之事应该勇敢表态的公共参与之见证。

除了呼吁教会参与和平集会以表达我们对不公不义的抗议,我们也呼吁无法参与上街的基督徒不仅为我们祷告,更愿意在幕后给予支持,如提供物资的支持,以供应现场参与者的基本需求。若可以的话,我们盼望教会在29-30/8这两天呼吁信徒同心聚集在教会一起为这国家和集会来祷告和守望。

我們正在计划29/8傍晚于集会现场,即吉隆坡独立广场附近举行一場基督徒祷告会,希望邀请参与集会的基督徒,以及邻近的众教会,前来一同祷告。另外,我们也考虑于30/8星期日早上在同样的场地举行一场简单却不失庄重的主日崇拜。請Like這頁面,更多的详情会在近期内公布,敬请留意。

最后,我们再次恳求各教会迫切地为这些需要祷告,并积极参与和平集会,按照上帝借圣灵在每个信徒身上的动工,勇敢回应我们国家当下的需要和危机,这乃是基督教会在此刻的危机中所应表现出的见证。

Dear pastors, deacons, church leaders and brothers and sisters in Christ,

We greet you in the kindness, compassion, faithfulness and righteousness of God. As our country is facing with huge crises, more people are needed to take a stance on the current political chaos. Therefore, we, Christians from all around the country, decided to take part in the peaceful rally that called by Bersih 4.0. We hope that through this civic commitment, it can demonstrate that those who refuse to join with the corrupted one can still have reasons for hope. As long as we uphold the public principles of reason, peace, compassion, kindness, righteousness and freedom, by the righteousness and kindness of God, we can halt the uncontrollable political chaos.

For this reason, we sincerely urge the churches of Malaysia to pray earnestly for this country, may the Spirit of truth stir up more Christians to stand up in peace, righteousness and with hope, to participate in this movement. For the church can no longer be the silent one. The church should be bold enough to speak for justice as their testimonial in public issues, which is also the calling from Lord.

Apart from calling the churches to join the peaceful rally that protest to the injustices, we also urge those Christians that can't join us on the street, not only pray for us but also support us, like providing physical resources, in order to look after the basic needs of the participants. If it is possible, we even hope that the churches can ask the believers to gather in one heart on August 29 and 30 to pray for the country as well as the rally.

We also consider to held a Christian prayer meeting at the site of rally, Dataran Merdeka of Kuala Lumpur on August 29 evening, where Christians that present at the rally, and even nearby churches that able to attend are to be invited, to pray together. We also mulling over a simple but no less solemn Sunday Worship at the same site on August 30 Sunday morning.

So, we sincerely urge the churches to pray for these needs earnestly, besides joining the peaceful rally, according to the good works of the Holy Spirit that did on every Christians, boldly response to the current needs and crises that our country is facing now. This is the testimony that the Christian churches need to demonstrate in this time of trials.
