主題：『歸耶和華為聖』

背誦經文：17 求我們主耶穌基督的　神，榮耀的父，將那賜人智慧和啟示的靈賞給你們，使你們真知道祂，18 並且照明你們心中的眼睛，使你們知道祂的恩召有何等指望，祂在聖徒中得的基業有何等豐盛的榮耀； 19 並知道祂向我們這信的人所顯的能力是何等浩大， （20 就是照祂在基督身上所運行的大能大力，使祂從死裏復活，叫祂在天上坐在自己的右邊， 21 遠超過一切執政的、掌權的、有能的、主治的，和一切有名的；不但是今世的，連來世的也都超過了。 22 又將萬有服在祂的腳下，使祂為教會作萬有之首。 23 教會是祂的身體，是那充滿萬有者所充滿的。)(弗1:17-23)

Annual Theme: “Holiness Unto the Lord”

Memory Verse: ¹⁷ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, ¹⁸ the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, ¹⁹ and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power ²⁰ which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, ²¹ far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

²² And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, ²³ which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. (Eph 1:17-23)
