角聲護家中心(以下簡稱「護家」)的宗旨,是「守護家庭•重建生命」。在離婚成為「家常便飯」的21世紀,多少破碎家庭的成員在創傷中哀度餘年。

「護家」作為社區的愛心服務機構,為單親人士提供生命重建營、每月舉辦支持小組和社區講座,例如:「情緒管理、品格、性教育」、「健康心理界線」、「智慧提問」等系列訓練課程;還有個別聆聽陪伴、「使命小組」和「盟友組」等行之有效的全面服務。2024年總共服務了5,929人,總共62,823人次。

學員分享道:「『護家』的學習給我很多力量,回想報名聆聽課程時,心想自己的聆聽能力很差,來學習怎麼聆聽是挺好的事情。課堂中學習如何提問——『會聽才會問』時,突然發現自己不單是不會聆聽,原來也很不會說話,說出來的話都很自我中心,甚至傷害他人。恍然大悟被提醒了!這些都是上課前未曾體會過的,實在寶貴。」

有些學員接受過服務後蛻變成長,有的變得勇敢、有信心;有的發現自己不再輕易發怒;有的變得正面、積極,懂得說造就人的話;有的在「護家」成為健康成熟的小組長、聆聽者,開始陪伴心靈掙扎的社區朋友。

此外,「護家使命小組」成員,願意敞開心靈,彼此鼓勵造就,一起在主的話語上經歷生命被重建和提升,裝備自己成為他人的祝福!「護家盟友」群組人數不斷增加,每天一同靈修學習神的話語。

「護家」在2024年度,加強連繫各個有相同異象的群體。包括:

  1. 使男士更清楚他們的角色、責任,找到並實現他們在神國的使命——人生目標!
  2. 建立清晰實際有效的系統培訓教材,並訓練有生命力和口才的師資。
  3. 藉著「護家使命小組」,培訓服務社區的精兵。

感謝主!藉着各種活動,很多未信者能聆聽到福音,有些更成為慕道友及基督徒。「護家」將繼續努力,「守護家庭•重建生命」!

The Mission of Herald Family Rebuilding Center (HFRC) is “Protect the Family and Rebuild Life.” In the 21st century, where divorce has become “commonplace,” many members of broken families endure the rest of their lives in pain.

As a community service organization dedicated to care and compassion, HFRC offers various services to single parents, such as Life Reconstruction Camps, monthly support groups, and community lectures. Topics include “Emotional Management,” “Character,” “Sex Education,” “Healthy Psychological Boundaries,” “Wise Questioning,” and other training series. We also provide personal support, “Mission Groups,” and “Allies Groups,” offering comprehensive and effective services. In 2024, the center served a total of 5,929 individuals, reaching 62,823 service instances.

A participant shared: “The learning from HFRC has given me so much strength. When I first signed up for the listening training course, I thought my listening skills were quite poor, so learning how to listen seemed like a good thing. In class, we learned how to ask questions—’To ask well, you must first listen well.’ I suddenly realized that not only was I not good at listening, but I also didn’t know how to speak well. The things I said were often self-centered and even hurtful to others. It was a sudden awakening! These realizations are something I had never experienced before, and they are truly precious.”

Some participants experienced transformation and growth after receiving services. Some became braver and more confident; others found they no longer got angry easily. Some became more positive and proactive, learning to speak words that build others up. Some became healthy and mature group leaders and listeners at HFRC, beginning to accompany community friends who are struggling emotionally.

Furthermore, members of the “Family Rebuilding Mission Group” are willing to open their hearts, encourage and build each other up, experiencing life reconstruction and elevation in the Word of the Lord, equipping themselves to be a blessing to others. The number of “Family Rebuilding Allies” continues to grow, with daily devotionals and learning of God’s Word.

In 2024, HFRC strengthened its connections with other groups sharing the same vision, including:

  1. Helping men better understand their roles and responsibilities, find, and fulfill their mission in God’s kingdom—their life’s purpose!
  2. Developing clear, practical, effective and systematic training materials and training instructors with vitality and eloquence.
  3. Through the “Family Rebuilding Mission Group,” training and equipping the community’s servants.

Thank the Lord! Through various activities, many non-believers have heard the Gospel, and some have even become seekers or Christians. “Family Rebuilding” will continue its efforts to “Protect the Family and Rebuild Life!”
