美东南弟兄姊妹主内平安，
感谢主的恩典和各教会的支持，到昨晚为止，今年的美东南华人基督徒冬令会报名人数为：中文营200位，英文营65位，儿童营54位，青少年营137位，共计456位。普通报名已在昨晚结束。营会同工们已开始分配住宿和作最后阶段的准备。 如果你错过了报名截止日期但仍想参加，尤其是刚考完期末考试的大学生们，欢迎你使用现有网上报名链接填写报名表。我们将在安排普通报名的弟兄姊妹们之余，尽量给你安排。根据我们的估计，住宿容量应该足够。冬令会网址是https://www.secchurches.org/。
我们为美东南各华人教会的支持和帮助献上感恩。青少年营是亚特兰大华人基督教会北堂，西北堂，和母堂协作主办的。英文营主要由北堂和西北堂组织。北堂还承担了今年的诗班献诗，敬拜团队，和圣餐准备。西北堂和北堂的同工们给我们的筹备工作带来极大帮助。今年冬令会的儿童营由亨城华语基督教会主要承担。我们特别感谢纳城华人基督教浸信会的及时帮助，满足了敬拜团队的急需。最后，我们热烈欢迎第一次参加我们冬令会的各华人教会，尤其是诸多新奥尔良华人基督教会的弟兄姊妹们，不远千里，来到我们当中，与我们一起敬拜赞美，同享主内的团契和神的恩典。
请为冬令会的最后阶段的准备代祷。为每一位参与侍奉的同工代祷，求神帮助我们每一位带着主的同在，让我们明白我们为谁做工，靠谁行事，使我们的态度，与弟兄姊妹的交通，和手里所做的都荣耀神。为各营会的讲员们祷告，求主保守他们的身体和旅行，并赐给他们话语，更新我们的生命。也为所有参加者祷告，求神看顾他们旅途的平安，借着今年冬令会做他自己医治，安慰，和更新的工作，使每一位领受神丰盛的恩典。

祝大家圣诞快乐！

Greetings to brothers and sisters in the Southeast,
Praise the LORD and thanks to the strong support from many churches, as of last night, the registration figures for this year’s Chinese Christian Winter Retreat are as follows: Chinese Camp: 200, English Camp: 65, Children’s Camp: 54, Youth Camp: 137, totaling 456 participants. Regular registration ended last night. Co-workers have begun assigning lodgings and making final preparations. If you missed the regular registration deadline, like those college students who just came out of final exams, you are welcome to use the existing registration link to register. We will do our best to accommodate you, after we complete the lodging arrangement for regular registrants. We expect to have sufficient accommodation capacity. Please visit the Retreat website: https://www.secchurches.org/.
We are so grateful for the strong support from our brother churches. The youth camp is jointly organized by the Atlanta Chinese Christian Church North (ACCCN), the Northwest campus (ACCCNW), and the main campus (ACCC). The English camp is organized largely by ACCCN and ACCCNW. ACCCN also took care of the Grand Choir, worship team, and communion service. The co-workers from ACCCN and ACCCNW have been tremendously helpful during our preparation. This year’s children’s camp is primarily organized by the Huntsville Chinese Christian Church. We are especially grateful to Nashville Chinese Baptist Church for their timely assistance in meeting the last-minute need for an extra worship team. Finally, we offer our warmest welcome to the many Chinese Christian churches that join us for the first time. Most notably, a sizable group of brothers and sisters from the Greater New Orleans Chinese Christian Church are traveling all the way over to join us. We look forward to a great time worshiping together, fellowshipping, and sharing in God’s grace.
As we enter the final stage of preparation, please pray for every co-worker involved, asking God to help each of us carry His own presence, so that we may understand for whom we are laboring and by whose power we serve, and that our attitudes, our interactions with each other, and everything we do may glorify God. Pray for the speakers at each camp, asking that the LORD protect their health and safe travel, and to give them words that will renew our lives. Also pray for all attendees, asking God to watch over their safety during their travels and to use the Retreat to do His own work of healing, comforting, and renewing, so that all may receive God’s abundant grace.
Should you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact us at shocco2025@gmail.com.
Wish you all a merry Christmas!
