第一章Chapter 1

從植堂開始——在主的帶領下建立教會Planted by God's hand

1999年6月6日，是立石教會歷史上一個值得紀念的日子。這一天，立石教會在 Old Road, Livingston 租用的聚會場所舉行了第一次敬拜聚會。那天聚會座無虛席，除了參與植堂的弟兄姐妹之外，也有許多從主恩堂前來慶祝、支持和幫助的弟兄姐妹。聚會結束後，約有十個家庭願意留下來，在吳啟政長老夫婦的帶領下，一同開始了立石教會的教會生活。June 6, 1999, is a day we’ll always remember. That Sunday, Living Stone held its very first worship service in a rented space on Old Road in Livingston. The room was packed: besides the families planting the church, many friends came from our mother church to celebrate and lend a hand. Afterward, about ten families stayed on, and with Elder Wu and his wife leading them, life at Living Stone began.

立石教會成立之初，人數雖然不多，但弟兄姐妹同心合意，依靠神一步一步建立教會。第二年，教會租用了位於 Northfield Ave 的長老教會作為聚會場所，主要在下午舉行敬拜。We were small, but we were united, and we trusted God to build His church one step at a time. The next year we started renting a Presbyterian church on Northfield Avenue, where we worshiped mostly in the afternoons.

隨著教會人數不斷增加，神也不斷興起工人。教會按立夏維柱長老夫婦參與服事，承擔教會的牧養和帶領工作。2007年，教會邀請任軍牧師夫婦來牧會，他們忠心服事了約十二年，為教會的成長和屬靈生命建立打下了重要的基礎。As the church grew, God kept raising up leaders. Warren Xia was ordained as an elder, and he and his wife took on caring for and leading the church. In 2007 we called Pastor Ren Jun and his wife. They served faithfully for about twelve years and laid a strong foundation for the church’s growth and spiritual life.

2020年，宋逸凡牧師夫婦開始在立石教會牧會，一直服事至今。多年來，神藉著一代又一代忠心的牧者、長老和弟兄姐妹，帶領立石教會不斷成長。In 2020, Pastor Henry Song and his wife came to Living Stone, and they’ve served here ever since. Through one generation after another of faithful pastors, elders, and members, God has kept this church growing.

第二章Chapter 2

從租用聚會場所到擁有自己的教堂From rented rooms to a home of our own

2017年，是立石教會發展歷程中的又一個重要里程碑。經過神的預備和弟兄姐妹的同心努力，教會購置了原來猶太人聚會使用的場所，成為立石教會今天美麗的教堂。2017 brought another big milestone. God provided, everyone pitched in, and the church bought a building that had been a synagogue. It’s the beautiful church we worship in today.

從最初租用聚會場所，到擁有屬於自己的教會建築，這不僅是環境上的改變，更是神恩典和帶領的見證。回顧這一路，我們深深體會到：Going from rented space to a building of our own was about more than a new address. It was proof of God’s grace and His leading. Looking back, we know this is true:

「若不是耶和華建造房屋，建造的人就枉然勞力。」“Unless the LORD builds the house, they who build it labor in vain.”

詩篇 127:1Psalm 127:1

第三章Chapter 3

以小組為核心——生命的牧養與成長Built around small groups

從教會成立開始，立石教會就一直把小組作為教會關懷、團契生活和屬靈生命成長的重要核心。From day one, small groups have been the heart of Living Stone. They’re where we care for each other, share life together, and grow in faith.

最初，教會只有四個小組。經過多年的發展，到2026年，教會已經發展到將近二十個小組。小組不僅是弟兄姐妹彼此認識、彼此關懷、彼此扶持的地方，也是查考聖經、禱告、分享生命、彼此守望和共同成長的重要平臺。We started with four groups. By 2026 there were nearly twenty. Small groups are where people get to know one another and look out for each other, and where we study the Bible, pray, open up about our lives, and grow together.

每一位小組長都是教會重要的核心同工。他們在牧養弟兄姐妹、關懷家庭、帶領查經和建立門徒的事工中，承擔著非常重要的角色。Our small group leaders are some of the most important leaders in the church. They care for members and their families, lead Bible study, and help people grow as disciples.

為了進一步加強教會的牧養和關懷，教會目前將小組劃分為三個區域，並建立三個牧羊團隊。每個區域由區長、傳道以及長老或牧師共同組成，使教會能夠更加有系統地關懷和牧養每一個家庭和每一位弟兄姐妹。To care for everyone well, the groups are now organized into three districts, each with its own pastoral team: a district leader, a minister, and an elder or pastor. That way every family, and every person, is looked after.

立石教會於1999年從新澤西主恩堂植堂出來，在李文斯頓（Livingston）建立教會。在過去24年中，立石教會蒙神保守不斷地成長，成為一個充滿活力、彼此聯結的大家庭。 我是葡萄樹，你們是枝子。常在我裡面的，我也常在他裡面，這人就多結果子；因為離了我，你們就不能做什麼。（約翰福音 15:5） 你們來到主面前，也就像活石，被建造成為靈宮。 彼得前書 2:5 Family Tree1999–2026 夏維柱小組 1999–2004 夏維柱小組 （1999—2004） 張恭樂小組 1999–2015 張恭樂小組 （1999—2015） 姊妹查經班 2000– 姊妹查經班 馮雪梅・吳雲 （2000—　） 校園小組 2002–2021 校園小組 （2002—2021） 王彥峰小組 2004–2014 王彥峰小組 （2004—2014） 李承倫小組 2006–2021 李承倫小組 （2006—2021） 王滿君小組 2006–2016 王滿君小組 （2006—2016） 王化成小組 2010–2024 王化成小組 （2010—2024） 陳陵小組 2010– 陳陵小組 陳陵・李秀賢 （2010—　） 紀曉東小組 2011– 紀曉東小組 紀曉東・錢恩丹 （2011—　） 許金小組 2011–2022 許金小組 （2011—2022） 蘇繼航小組 2014–2025 蘇繼航小組 （2014—2025） 邱偉輝小組 2014– 邱偉輝小組 邱偉輝・龔紅梅 （2014—　） 高敏麟小組 2014– 高敏麟小組 高敏麟・王丹 （2014—　） 何維政小組 2015–2026 何維政小組 （2015—2026） 王金中小組 2016–2026 王金中小組 （2016—2026） 魯春萌小組 2017– 魯春萌小組 魯春萌・劉春艷 （2017—　） 洪恩山小組 2017–2026 洪恩山小組 （2017—2026） 謝洪亮小組 2018– 謝洪亮小組 謝洪亮・張萬湘 （2018—　） 黃嚴忠小組 2018–2026 黃嚴忠小組 （2018—2026） 葛亮小組 2019– 葛亮小組 葛亮・王瑞 （2019—　） 張鵬小組 2021– 張鵬小組 張鵬・陳軍 （2021—　） 李濤小組 2022– 李濤小組 李濤・楊璐玲 （2022—　） 沈道顯小組 2022– 沈道顯小組 沈道顯・胡喆 （2022—　） 黃浩堯小組 2023– 黃浩堯小組 黃浩堯・温麗明 （2023—　） 任明亮小組 2026– 任明亮小組 任明亮・李婷婷 （2026—　） 謝向東小組 2025– 謝向東小組 謝向東・蕭麗君 （2025—　） 台博涵小組 2026– 台博涵小組 台博涵・楊倩 （2026—　） 侯佩文小組 2024– 侯佩文小組 侯佩文・馬可可 （2024—　） 蔣玉輝小組 2026– 蔣玉輝小組 蔣玉輝・高紅 （2026—　）

第四章Chapter 4

中英文事工——福音使命不斷拓展Two languages, one mission

經過二十多年的發展，立石教會目前設有中文和英文兩堂敬拜，繼續承擔向不同語言背景的弟兄姐妹傳揚福音、牧養生命的使命。After more than twenty years, Living Stone now holds two worship services, one in Chinese and one in English, so people from different language backgrounds can hear the gospel and grow in their faith.

中文堂由宋逸凡牧師牧養，英文堂由 Pastor Sam 服事。教會目前有兩位長老、四位傳道以及一位青少年主任，與眾多小組長和核心同工一起參與教會的各項事工。Pastor Henry Song leads the Chinese congregation, and Pastor Sam serves the English congregation. Two elders, four ministers, and a youth director serve alongside them, together with many small group leaders and volunteers.

吳啟政長老退休之後，教會按立李承倫弟兄為長老，與現有長老和牧者團隊一同承擔教會的屬靈帶領和牧養責任。When Elder Wu retired, the church ordained Allen Lee as an elder. He now shares in leading and caring for the church with the other elders and pastors.

第五章Chapter 5

undefined年的恩典——向下紮根，向上結果undefined years of grace

從1999年第一次聚會時的十個家庭左右，到今天將近二十個小組；從租用聚會場所，到擁有今天美麗的教堂；從最初幾位同工，到如今由牧師、長老、傳道、青少年主任以及區長和眾多小組長組成的服事團隊——立石教會一路走來，每一步都充滿了神的恩典和帶領。From about ten families at that first service in 1999 to nearly twenty small groups today. From rented space to a beautiful church of our own. From a handful of volunteers to a team of pastors, elders, ministers, a youth director, district leaders, and many small group leaders. Every step of the way has been full of God’s grace.

二十多年來，教會經歷了人數的增長、事工的發展、同工的更替，也經歷了不同的挑戰。但神始終信實，帶領立石教會在祂的話語上向下紮根，在生命中向上成長，在服事中向外拓展，在福音使命上不斷結果。Over more than twenty years we’ve grown in number, started new ministries, seen leaders come and go, and faced our share of challenges. Through it all, God has been faithful, rooting us deeper in His Word, growing us up in faith, sending us out to serve, and bearing fruit through the gospel.

回顧過去，我們滿心感恩；展望未來，我們仍然仰望神。Looking back, we’re deeply grateful. Looking ahead, we’re still trusting God.

我們的盼望What we’re hoping for

每個人都在小組裡被認識、被關懷No one falls through the cracks
三個區域的牧羊團隊，讓小組繼續成長、繼續分植Everyone known and cared for in a small group, with three pastoral teams helping groups grow and multiply.
下一代在信仰裡長大Kids who grow up and keep the faith
陪伴兒童、青少年與第二代，英文堂成為他們屬靈的家Walking with children and teens, and making the English congregation their church home.
在真理中造就門徒Making disciples

在社區見證基督，在萬民中傳揚福音Sharing Jesus, here and everywhere

願立石教會繼續持守起初的信仰和使命，以基督為元首，以聖經為根基，以小組牧養為重要途徑，在愛中建立教會，在真理中造就門徒，在社區中見證基督，在萬民中傳揚福音。We pray that Living Stone will hold on to the faith and calling we started with: Christ as our head, the Bible as our foundation, and small groups as a key way we care for one another. May we build up the church in love, make disciples through the truth, show Christ to our community, and share the gospel with every nation.

年，是神恩典的記號；
過去，是祂信實的見證；
今天，是祂恩典的延續；
未來，仍然在祂手中。 years: a sign of God’s grace.
The past: proof of His faithfulness.
Today: His grace, still flowing.
The future: still in His hands.

願立石教會繼續向下紮根，向上結果，忠心走在神所預備的道路上，直到主再來的日子。May Living Stone keep putting down deep roots and bearing fruit, walking faithfully in the path God has prepared, until the day the Lord returns.

「你們多結果子，我父就因此得榮耀，你們也就是我的門徒了。In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.」

約翰福音 15:8John 15:8
