角聲書室經理
Manager, Herald Bookstore

角聲書室位於法拉盛市中心的福音廣場,我們常有機會接觸新朋友、教會團體和新移民。書室主要的使命,就是為北美的基督徒,提供屬天的靈糧、傳福音的工具,並支援教會教育文化事工材料的需求,並在嘈雜的城市中,提供一個供人休憩、安靜的心靈綠洲。我們從美國、香港、台灣等地,挑選各種譯本的《聖經》、經典與最新的屬靈書籍和基督教禮品,期待把豐盛的屬天資源,呈現給每位踏進角聲書室的訪客。

我們致力服務社區的心,體現在書室空間的規劃上。在重新安排書櫃和座位後,為客人保留更多舒適的閱讀空間,讓讀者徜徉在文字的世界中,享受繁忙生活中的片刻安寧。書室裡,常常能看到客人坐在閱讀區的沙發上,享受閱讀的畫面,甚至有讀著讀著就睡著的場景。在節奏快速的紐約,慢活的步調成了一種奢侈,我們立意鼓勵我們的讀者,為主保留一段在靈裡閱讀、安靜的時光,使我們在面對生活中各樣挑戰時,能夠抓緊那得力的泉源。

銷售策略方面,我們未來的重心,將逐漸轉往網絡平台。銷售對象將不再局限於本地的華人社區,而是全美華人。此舉將提升我們傳播屬靈文化的影響力,同時也透過與「角聲」網站的連結、互動,幫助提升「角聲」的能見度,進而達成福音廣傳的目標。

The Herald Bookstore at the Gospel Plaza is located in the heart of Flushing, New York, where we often have opportunities to meet new friends, different church groups and even new immigrants. The primary mission of the bookstore is to provide spiritual nourishment and evangelism tools for Christians in North America. It also supports the material needs of churches’ educational and cultural ministries and serves as a peaceful oasis in the bustling city. The bookstore offers various translations of the Bible, classic and contemporary spiritual books, as well as Christian gifts from the United States, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and other places. The goal is to readily present rich spiritual resources to every visitor who enters the Herald Bookstore.

The focus on community service is evident in the layout of the bookstore. After rearranging the bookshelves and seating, there is now more comfortable reading space available, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the world of words and find moments of tranquility amid their busy lives. It’s common to see visitors sitting on the couch in the reading area, enjoying their reading, and sometimes even dozing off. In the fast-paced city of New York, adopting a slower pace has become a luxury. The bookstore aims to encourage readers to reserve a moment of quiet reading in their spiritual lives, providing a source of strength for facing life’s challenges.

Regarding the sales strategy, the future focus will gradually shift to online platforms. The target audience will no longer be limited to the local Chinese community but will expand to include Chinese Americans nationwide. This shift will enhance the influence of disseminating spiritual culture and help improve the visibility of CCHC through links and interactions with our website, ultimately contributing to the goal of spreading the Gospel.
