我們的牧師及開荒者--鄔小鶴牧師

我們的宣教事工

鄔小鶴牧師於1953年7月8日生在上海，在上海住了八年隨母到香港。在香港接受教育及成長。母親來港後信主，加入觀塘信義會。後來父親也來港，來港不久得病而死，但病中信主，加入衞理公會神愛堂，不久逝世。後來母親也逝世。他們兩人是我家最早信主。我是二代基督徒。今年己信主55年。

由於父母離世，我們家中只有五兄弟姊妹生活，最後他們都結婚成家，只留下鄔牧師一個人去拼搏。中學畢業後，在教會機構做了一年後，就開始創業，成立了雅思達廣告公司，從事廣告業約十年。後在疾病中蒙主呼召，放下生意，專心事奉，到香港信義宗神學院就讀神學。經過四年全時間神學課程畢業。

1989年與王明道先生的學生董天民共同創立「中國福音事工促進會」，並推動中國宣教教事工，栽培中國信徒。在東莞協助家庭教會宣教工作。後來與陳宣明牧師、董天民先生等協助姚增誼牧師重新開辧」湖南聖經學校。中國福音事工促進會在賑災工作上突破中共宗教條例的規定，在雲南麗江開展工作，在雲南得到當地家庭教會的安排，去到麗江，以賑災的名義向賑民傳福音及建立麗江西關小學。並且重新將麗江納西族帶到耶穌面前。當地的村長和村民在學校進行福音工作，並且領他們到主面前，受洗歸主。我們在短短兩年間，重建麗江教會，令到一個失去福音的民族，納西族重返基督的懷抱，令納西族除去未得之民的。

讓台灣的福音重新復興，應該是1999年9月21日的七級地震，我們也參與了全台灣人的福音復興的道路，在災前台灣只有不到百分之二的基督徒，現在己超過百分之十的基督徒，其中最重要的是，在災難中見證耶穌。台灣地震，我們派了全部的團隊，包括來自菲律賓的宣教士古老輩牧師，一同參與這項聖工，走遍全台灣三分之一地區，進行賑災和傳福音。我們與台灣長老會和信義會一同合作，這場地震令到今日台灣教會信徒增長到百分之十。

福音工作在中國內地爆發；也在東南亞回教國家爆發，中國福音事工促進會都有參與，鄔小鶴牧師及其團隊在這福音事工上都積極投入。由於內容太長，大家以後可以參考鄔小鶴牧師即將出版的書，「風雨中的宣教」一本書將會詳細介紹，鄔小鶴失牧師的一生事奉。

2003年中國福音事工促進會將中福差傳教會改名為基督教中福教會，這個名字由「聯合國人員要求改名「基督教中福教會」由於我們當時有協助為中國教會被迫害的信徒，協助他們政治庇護，而要求我們改教會名稱，同時我們也訂下教會的信仰原則及教義。基督教中福教會在2008年正式註冊為香港一間社團，並以2009年註冊為慈善團體。

2009年3月1 日，鄔小鶴牧師離任中國福音事工促進會，開辧國際天糧事工。繼續在中國福音及宣教事工上努力，基督教中福教會也已獨立，並且由鄔牧師繼續擔任該教會的主席及主任牧師。基督教中福教會在2013年成立中福團隊，並在深圳市福田區成為福音工作地點，並在溫洲平陽鎮一間教會設立培訓點，也是中福團隊的福音工作點。後來，習近平迫害教會時，我們將主福音工作放在香港。

2013年基督教中福教會舉行多場佈道會，分別在旺角球場和天水圍社區中心。兩場聚會有數千人參加。另外，我們也舉辦多個教牧培訓營在香港多個營地舉行，這些傳道人主要來自中國家庭教會，也有部份三自教會的傳道人，我們為他培訓，他們太多數已接過三年以上的培訓及有多年牧養的經驗，我們為他們按立牧師，因為中國教會牧者實在太少。在中國教會入工的人，實在太少，需要垃訓。

從2013至2017年，我們共按立約一百位牧師及三十位長老及宣教士。同時我們也在深圳開設福音工作，分別在竹子林和福田兩個地方開設家庭教會，也引起中國宗教局及公安局及街道注意。經過三年後，被中共打壓。2015年我被中共宗教局和公安局約談一小時半，這件事後來宙轟動全球，成為2015年全球十大中國宗教迫害人士，這是美國政府公佈的消息。

中共對中國教會迫害，最新從2013年開始在浙江溫州強拆十字架及教堂，後來伸展到全國各地，重災區是浙江及河南，共有二萬多所教堂及十字架被強拆，弟兄姊妹為保護教堂及十字架，被中共公安毆打及威嚇，有許多牧師被關進監獄，包括顧約瑟牧師、黃榏梓牧師、包國華牧師、李軍才牧師、王怡牧師、張少傑牧師、曹三強牧師、胡石根長老、張崇助牧師.....等數百位牧師及長老，被關進監獄。雖然其數位牧師，經過關押出獄，但他們心靈也受傷。

習近平推出「基督教中國化」，令到許多教會受到更大的迫害，中共及宗教局控制教會，並且強行污衊教堂聖壇，要將習近平的相片放在聖幕上。並且強制信徒退出基督教，限制信徒就業，強制停止教會聚會及活動。改寫聖經等反基督教運動。另外強制沒收及限制教會奉獻收入，在教堂內設立黨支部等舉動，中國教會從2019起，開始停止教會。中共全面停止宗教活動等。直至現在，中國教會才慢慢開始聚會，但不是全面性的，是部份信徒堅持宗教活動。中國教會在過去五年內好像是在文革初期一樣，全面停止宗教活動，人民的生活也全面停止運作。尤其是三年的疫情封控，更是像中國成為一個地獄，人民完全失去自由活動。

2017年至2021年，我們在旺角重開基督教中福教會，重新開始聚會。然而中共繼續對我們的威脅，沒有減少。我們在中聯辦門口為中國教會被迫逼的事，舉行禱告會，這個活動我們每月舉行一至二次。2019年的反送中運動爆發，香港多間教會投入參與反送中運動，並且成立香港教會教牧人員對反送中運動的支持及參與，香港基督徒參與這場運，藉著唱詩、禱告、遊行及集會去支持這個運動。我們教會也積極參與其中，因為我們知道，參與這場反送中運動，是按著神的公義和愛，向不公義的政權，提出控訴，是基督徒的責任和對神與香港市民的回應。

2021年我們被迫離開香港，流亡到英國來生活，但我們仍然懷著光復香港的信念，繼續在英國團結香港人的信心，讓香港有一日可以自由。基督教中福教會決定在英國改名為基督教華福教會，我們繼續要在英國推動教會復興，這是因為我們看到英國及歐洲的教會，現在非常荒涼，所以我們必須繼續為英國及歐洲教會復興禱告。我們期望英國繼續可以復興，並且繼續派遣宣教士，英國曾經是一個宣教教國，今日己淪為一個福音荒涼地區，同時回教勢力增強。上帝仍然會給英國成為宣教的國家。

基督教華福教會繼續在英國建立教會，促進福音重建，推動教會復興，尋找失去的羊群，重顯神的榮耀。我們會建立教會，關懷英國的華人和香港人。牧養他們和培訓他們成為宣教士。願神帶領基督教華福教會的聖工。

Rev. Philip Woo was born in Shanghai on July 8, 1953. He lived in Shanghai for eight years and moved to Hong Kong with his mother. Educated and grown up in Hong Kong. After her mother came to Hong Kong, she believed in the Lord and joined the Kwun Tong Lutheran Church. Later, my father also came to Hong Kong. He fell ill and died shortly after arriving in Hong Kong. However, he believed in the Lord during his illness and joined the Methodist Church of God's Love. He passed away soon after. Later the mother also died. They were the first believers in my family. I am a second generation Christian. I have believed in the Lord for 55 years this year.

Due to the death of our parents, there were only five brothers and sisters living in our family. In the end, they all got married and started a family, leaving only Pastor Wu to work hard. After graduating from middle school and working in a church organization for a year, he started his own business and established Asther Advertising and Design Company. He has been engaged in the advertising industry for about ten years. After being called by the Lord while sick, he put down his business, devoted himself to serving, and went to Hong Kong Lutheran Theological Seminary to study theology. Graduate after four years of full-time theology courses.

In 1989, he and Dong Tian Ming, a student of Mr. Wang Ming Dao, co-founded the "The Association of Chinese Ministry", and implement Chinese missionary ministry and Discipline Chinese believers. Assisting house church missionary work in Dongguan. Later, together with Pastor Chen Xuanming and Mr. Dong Tian Ming, we assisted Pastor Yao Zengyi to reopen the Hunan Bible School. "The Association of Chinese Ministry" broke through the regulations of the CCP’s religious regulations in disaster relief work, and carried out work in Lijiang, Yunnan.

In Yunnan, it was arranged by a local house church to go to Lijiang to spread the gospel to the people in the name of disaster relief and to establish Lijiang Xiguan Primary School. . And bring the Lijiang Naxi people to Jesus again. The local village head and villagers carried out evangelistic work in the school and led them to the Lord, where they were baptized. In just two years, we rebuilt the church in Lijiang, brought a nation that had lost the Gospel, the Naxi people back to the embrace of Christ, and made the Naxi people get rid of the unreached people.

The revival of the Gospel in Taiwan should have been the magnitude 7 earthquake on September 21, 1999. We have also participated in the revival of the Gospel for all Taiwanese. Before the disaster, there were less than 2% of Christians in Taiwan. More than ten percent of Christians, most importantly, bear witness to Jesus in a tribulation. During the earthquake in Taiwan, we sent our entire team, including missionaries and pastors from the Philippines, to participate in this holy work and traveled to one-third of Taiwan for disaster relief and evangelism. We cooperated with the Taiwan Presbyterian Church and the Lutheran Church. This earthquake has increased the number of church believers in Taiwan to 10% today.

Evangelism broke out in mainland China, and it also broke out in Muslim countries in Southeast Asia. "The Association of Chinese Ministry" has participated. Rev.Philip Woo and his team are actively involved in this evangelism. Since the content is too long, you can refer to the upcoming book of Rev.Philip Woo in the future. The book "Mission in the Wind and Rain" will introduce in detail Pastor Wu Xiaohe's lifelong ministry. In 2003, the Chin "The Association of Chinese Ministry" changed the name of the Chinese Missionary Church to the Christian Church of Chinese Ministry The name was changed to "Christian Church of Chinese Ministry " by the "United Nations Refuger Committe" because we had assisted believers who were persecuted for the Chinese church at that time, and assisted them. Political asylum requires us to change the name of the church. At the same time, we also stipulate the principles and teachings of the church.Christian Church of Chinese Ministry was officially registered as a society in Hong Kong in 2008, and registered as a charity in 2009.

On March 1, 2009, Rev. Philip Woo resigned from The Association of Chinese Ministryand started the International Tin lang Ministry. Continuing to work hard on the Gospel and missionary work in China, the Christian Church of Chiness Ministry has also become independent, and Rev. Woo continues to serve as the chairman and senior pastor of the church. The Christian Church of Chinese Ministry established the CM Team in 2013, and it became the evangelistic work site in Futian District, Shenzhen, and set up a training site in a church in Pingyang Town, Wenzhou, which is also the evangelical work site of the CM Team. Later, when Xi Jinping persecuted the church, we put the Lord’s gospel work in Hong Kong.

In 2013, Christian Church of Chinese Ministry held several evangelistic meetings, respectively at the Mong Kok Stadium and the Tin Shui Wai Community Center. Thousands of people attended both parties. In addition, we have also held several pastoral training camps in many camps in Hong Kong. These evangelists are mainly from Chinese house churches, and there are also some evangelists from the Three-Self Church. We have trained them, and most of them have taken over for three years. With the above training and years of pastoral experience, we ordained pastors for them, because there are too few pastors in Chinese churches. There are too few people working in Chinese churches, and they need to be trained.

From 2013 to 2017, we ordained about 100 pastors and 30 elders and missionaries. At the same time, we also set up evangelistic work in Shenzhen, setting up house churches in Zhuzilin and Futian respectively, which also attracted the attention of the China Religious Affairs Bureau, the Public Security Bureau and the streets. After three years, he was suppressed by the CCP. In 2015, I was interviewed by the CCP’s Religious Affairs Bureau and Public Security Bureau for an hour and a half.

This incident became a worldwide sensation and became one of the top ten Chinese religious persecution figures in the world in 2015. This is the news announced by the US government. The CCP’s persecution of churches in China started with the demolition of crosses and churches in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province in 2013, and later spread to all parts of the country. The hardest hit areas are Zhejiang and Henan. A total of more than 20,000 churches and crosses were demolished. Brothers and sisters protect churches and crosses , beaten and intimidated by the CCP police, many pastors were imprisoned, including Pastor Gu Yuser, Pastor Huang Yuzi, Pastor Bao Guohua, Pastor Li Juncai, Pastor Wang Yi, Pastor Zhang Shaojie, Pastor Cao Sanqiang, Elder Hu Shigen, Pastor Zhang Chongzhu. ...and hundreds of pastors and elders were imprisoned. Although several pastors were detained and released from prison, their hearts were also wounded. Xi Jinping's "Sinicization of Christianity" has led to greater persecution of many churches.

The CCP and the Religious Affairs Bureau control the churches, and forcibly slandered the altar of the church, and put Xi Jinping's photo on the altar. It also forces believers to withdraw from Christianity, restricts the employment of believers, and forcibly stops church gatherings and activities. Anti-Christian campaigns such as rewriting the Bible. In addition, the compulsory confiscation and restriction of the church’s donation income, and the establishment of party branches in the church, etc., the Chinese church began to stop the church from 2019. The CCP completely stopped religious activities and so on. Until now,

Chinese churches have slowly started gathering, but not comprehensively. Some believers insist on religious activities. In the past five years, Chinese churches have completely stopped religious activities, as in the early days of the Cultural Revolution, and people's lives have also completely stopped functioning. Especially the three-year lockdown of the epidemic, it is like China has become a hell, and the people have completely lost their freedom of movement.

From 2017 to 2021, we reopened Christian Zhongfu Church in Mong Kok and started gathering again. However, the CCP continues to threaten us and has not diminished. We hold a prayer meeting at the gate of the Liaison Office for the persecution of the Chinese church. We hold this event once or twice a month.

The anti-extradition movement broke out in 2019. Many churches in Hong Kong participated in the anti-extradition movement, and established the support and participation of Hong Kong church pastors for the anti-extradition movement. Hong Kong Christians participated in this movement by singing hymns and praying , marches and rallies to support the movement. Our church is also actively participating in it, because we know that participating in this anti-extradition movement is based on God’s justice and love, and it is the responsibility of Christians to lodge a complaint against the unjust regime and respond to God and the people of Hong Kong. . In 2021, we were forced to leave Hong Kong and live in exile in the UK, but we still have the belief in the recovery of Hong Kong and continue to unite the confidence of Hong Kong people in the UK so that Hong Kong can be free one day. Christian Church of Chinese Ministry has decided to change its name to Christian Evangelical Church of Chinese Ministry in the UK. We will continue to promote the revival of the church in the UK. This is because we see that the churches in the UK and Europe are now very desolate, so we must continue to pray for the revival of the church in the UK and Europe .

We hope that Britain will continue to be revived and continue to send missionaries. Britain used to be a missionary country, but today it has become a desolate area of the Gospel. At the same time, the power of Islam is increasing. God will still make England a missionary nation. The Christian Evangelical Church of Chinese Ministry continues to establish churches in the UK, Preaching the revival of the gospel, promotes the revival of the church, seeks the lost believer, and restores the glory of God. We will build churches to care for the Chinese and Hong Kong people in the UK. Pastor them and train them to be missionaries. May God lead the work of the Christian Evangelical Church of Chinese Church.
