Social Concern Ministry (2025)
With FECA’s organization and ministry plans undergoing transformation, the Social Concerns Ministry has also been adapting to a new structure and approach. Recognizing that each member church is unique, the ministry has encouraged churches to take more initiative in developing their own focus and projects. Under this new model, every future project will be led by at least one member church, while remaining open to others joining. In other words, not every FECA church needs to participate in every project, but all are welcome.
One project that continues to unite all FECA churches is the World Vision Global 6K for Water. 2025 marked the sixth consecutive year of participation, drawing 357 walkers and raising $17,887. Year after year, interest and involvement in this event have remained strong. While individual churches can host their own walk, many choose to gather together at Monrovia Recreation Park with FEC Arcadia, creating a beautiful picture of unity and shared purpose. Looking ahead, FEC Diamond Bar is taking an even bolder step by signing up for the World Vision Half Marathon, with over 40 members already committed to training.
Beyond local initiatives, FEC Arcadia has faithfully partnered with HIS Foundation for years in medical missions and SuperAdobe housing projects at the refugee camps in Kurdistan. This year, the church is prayerfully exploring a new frontier: education. In September, Pastor Kevin Hu (GCDC Pastor) and David Lam from Upward Bound Study Center visited the site and met with the program director and teachers. The response was overwhelmingly positive, and doors are opening for a short-term mission team to begin in 2026.
随着「聯會」組織與事工計劃的轉型，社會關懷事工也在適應新的架構與事工方向。鑒於每一間成員教會都有其獨特性，社會關懷事工一直鼓勵各成員教會主動發展自身的重點與計畫。在新的模式下，每一個未來的項目都將由至少一間成員教會主導，同時間向其他教會開放参與。换句話説，並非每一個 「聯會」成員教會都必須参與每一個項目，但所有教會都被歡迎一同加入。
一個持續凝聚所有 「聯會」教會的項目是世界宣明會「環球六公里，為水齊邁步」 。2025 年已是連續第六年参與，共有 357 名健行者，籌得款項 17,887 美元。多年來，各教會對這一活動的熱情與投入始终不减。雖然每間教會都可以自行舉辦活動，但許多教會選擇與亞凯迪亞羅省基督教會一同在 Monrovia Recreation Park 集合健行，展現出合一與共同使命的美好見証。展望未來，鑽石崗羅省基督教會會友更邁出勇敢的一步，報名参加世界宣明會半馬拉松，目前已有四十多位會友投入訓練。
在本地項目之外，亞凯迪亞羅省基督教會多年來也忠心與 HIS Foundation 合作，在庫爾德難民营從事醫療宣教與超級土房 SuperAdobe 建造事工。今年，教會正禱告尋求新的服事方向——教育事工。九月間，恩上之家牧師胡牧師，與志上學習中心同工林弟兄前往當地探訪，與項目負責人及教師會面。對方反應熱烈，許多新的機會之門正在被開啟。
