[奇招推廣] 教會 新移民安居樂業踏板

人在異鄉倍思親 做彌撒、聽講經和鄉親聚會交流……聖誕節初體驗好溫馨

【本報多倫多訊】昨天聖誕節,教堂的鐘聲在多倫多各處敲響。不少來自華人新移民昨天走進教堂,他們不僅到教堂做彌撒,而且也到教堂尋求關愛和幫助。教會,成為許多新移民在此安居樂業的第一塊踏板。

位於士嘉堡、北約克的多家華人基督教會在聖誕節期間都安排許多活動。內容包括牧師講經、唱讚美詩、文藝表演、聚餐等。數百位新移民參加了這些活動。他們中不少人是第一次在加拿大過聖誕節。  

年初從福建移民來的姜妍昨天說,在國內時就聽人說加拿大的教會樂意幫助人。來多倫多以後,她便留意華人教會的情況。  

前不久,碰到本地華人基督教教會的教友,一番交談後,雙方都有緣分的感覺,於是她成為此教會的一員。  

當聖誕節臨近,姜妍的心情即好奇也有一點恐懼。因為是第一次在加拿大過聖誕節,他很想知道北美人怎樣過這個一年中西方最大節日的;但由於自己在這裡無親無故,認識的人有限,在喜慶的節日裡也難免備加寂寞。  

幸好教會的朋友安排了豐富的活動。平安夜裡,教會有演出、聚餐,之後大家到教友家聚會、聊天;聖誕節,大家又到教會聽講經,然後聚會交流。姜妍與許多新來的移民都覺得這個聖誕過得充實又快樂。  

在教會做義工多年的趙力峰表示,新移民初來乍到,他們在多倫多的各方面都需要人幫助。加上絕大部分新移民在此都沒有親人,因此一旦碰到不順利的情況,很容易出現情緒波動。  

他說,教會的工作就是幫助這些新移民度過難關,從而適應加拿大的生活。另一位教會義工陸淑芬也認為,教會是一個大家庭,有助於新移民排遣寂寞。  

在士嘉堡華堅華人基督教教會有一個大陸組,成員有超過百人,大多為來加定居在三年之內的新移民。  

在聖誕節,此教會大陸組的成員也像往年一樣聚在一起,每家人帶來自己做的一、兩味家鄉風味菜點,大家圍坐在一起,邊吃邊談,氣氛熱鬧而又親近。  

組裡的成員年年有所不同,有的新移民工作生活穩定後,就不再來參加活動了(抽按:醒目! ;但總是又有新的移民加入進來。

唔啱!工作生活穩定後仍然參加教会活動嘅新移民更為醒目。
蓋天有不測風雲,人有旦夕禍福,居安思危 -- (居安思危,思則有備,有備無患 《左傳‧襄公十一年》)
今雖工作生活穩定,但難保日後不會lay off,如果工作生活穩定後,就不再來參加活動,則好易被教友睇穿您係利用教會的network揾著數,一旦要再揾第份工,便很可能得不到教友的熱心協助。所以,只係「有的」新移民工作生活穩定後,就不再來參加活動,而有的更醒目新移民工作生活穩定後,就仍会再來參加活動

傻啦,浪費咁多時間。

假如真的一旦被lay off,到時就扮哂內疚咁,話以前疏於返教會是罪,貪於逸樂,以後都勤力返教會,七情上面,牧師一定會心軟既(唔心軟都要扮心軟 )。

唔得嘅。佢係扮心軟,但又特登介紹唔到工俾您,一味叫您多啲祈禱,咪盞混吉。一於聽我勸,返教會霸住個位,以免無知小朋友坐咗,咁就助人助己,一舉兩得,何樂不為?

篇文無講話教會會介紹工作既喎,只係「有助於新移民排遣寂寞」咋。

同時,你坐左個位,你估就可以令無知小朋友無位坐咩?佢地一見有八、九成滿座,就立即再植堂啦。

its rumoured that : :::::
some church may provide some kinds of `````performance-fees"""" or similar incentive schemes ,
right ??
sorry i cant confirm whether true or false , any evidence or counter-evidence ????
sorry ,
at the time
when
i was in church ,
i was in a junior level ,
so ,
sorry ,
i couldnt have any access to the transparency of their labours-payment-structures

disclaiming note !!!!!!!!! : :::::
even some church may really provide the `````performance-fees"""" or similar incentive schemes ,
but ,
that phenomen may b just only the affair////business done by that particular church only ,
i.e.
not every church may engage in such business .........

In the rumour heard, is the "performance" counted by the number of people who newly join the chruches?
