急难故事 · 文/慧欣

​“世上只有妈妈好，有妈的孩子像个宝” 
张妈自从丈夫去世后，一个人含辛茹苦地把小张抚养长大。 
但，张妈没有等到她苦尽甘来的好日子。一场意外，让小张从此瘫痪在床。六旬老妇肩上背负母子两人的生活开销。年复年地，她在附近的工厂做操作员养家，放工就赶回家当儿子的护工。 
 
儿子小张虽然身体瘫痪，但意识是清醒的。他心底清楚妈妈的付出，只是，传统华裔家庭，双方不常把爱说出口。母子俩以为，这样平静的日子会持续下去，直到那张迁厂通知的出现。 
 
早在之前，工友们之间就有耳闻工厂即将搬迁到另一个城市。直到一个月前，厂方正式通知，消息属实，工厂即将搬迁。这下，张妈乱了阵脚，她即将失业，试问她这活了一甲子的老妇尚有什么技能可以求得其他一阶半职。母子俩陷入前所未有的低迷。 
 
邻居大嫂看出了端倪，得知情况后，她向张妈提议去找新山真理长老教会7979全人关怀站帮忙。邻居大嫂自荐“我帮你告诉教会，我里面有认识人。”就这样新山真理长老教会介入了张妈母子的需要。 
 
教会委派小婷执事去跟进，她的真诚很快就获得张妈和小张的信任。教会不但替张妈申请了急难救助金，还各方各面地支援他们，有医师为小张调理身体，有赞助尿片，也有人一直为张妈物色适合的空缺。 
 
最明显是小张情绪的改变，他变得开朗，爱笑，珍惜妈妈的付出和不放弃。小张虽然遭遇意外，但他收获了妈妈、教会弟兄姐妹和天父的爱。如今，张妈已经找到新工作，小张则已经接受主耶稣为生命的救主，盼他的身心灵靠主恩日日更健壮。

STORY FROM FAMILY CRISIS INTERVENTION PROGRAMME · WRITTEN BY tang

“Mothers are the best. They are the best gift that every child can have.”
Mrs Teo raised her son, Teo, alone. It was a difficult process, which became even harder ever since her husband passed away.
​
Her problems weren't over yet. Teo met with an accident which paralyzed him and left him bed-ridden. Mrs Teo, who was already in her sixties, was responsible for all their bills. Year after year, she worked as an operator in a nearby factory and rushed back to take care of her son everyday after work.

Although he was paralyzed, yet Teo was aware of his surroundings. He knew what his mother did for him, but they never expressed their love for each other, as a custom in their traditional Chinese family. They thought this routine would continue forever, until one day, Mrs Teo got word that their factory would be relocated.

Rumours of the big move had long spread across the factory. One month ago, the management officially broke the news to the workers. Mrs Teo started panicking, she was going to lose her job! Where would she work now? Their future was instantly plunged into darkness.

Incidentally, one of her neighbours noticed that something wasn't right, and asked her about what happen. She pointed Mrs Teo towards Chen-Li Presbyterian Church JB 7979 Holistic Care Station for help. She even volunteered to let someone from the church know about her situation. From then onwards, the church started attending to their needs.

The church then assigned Elder Xiao Ting. She started following up with Mrs Teo and Teo, and her sincerity made them trust her. The church not only helped Mrs Teo apply for the Emergency Fund, but also got a doctor to treat Teo, sponsored diapers for them, and even helped Mrs Teo get a new job.
 
Teo also changed a lot emotionally. He gradually became cheerful and was always smiling. He began appreciating his mother's perseverance. Even though he had an accident, he still received love and care from his mother, church members, and God.

Now, Mrs Teo has a new job. Teo also accepted Christ into his life as his Lord and Saviour. We hope that he will become stronger day by day by the grace of God.
