義光教會緣起
本堂址原為前省議員林義雄律師住宅。主後1980年2月28日中午,林母游太夫人阿妹女士及林律師之雙生女亮均、亭均離奇慘死於此,長女奐均雖受重傷蒙主憐憫得以死裡逃生。于此時,苦主林夫人方素敏女士蒙聖神引導求道,並願以本住宅為見證上帝公義,及耶穌基督赦免與拯救福音之地。
本教會地基是耶穌基督
本堂為普世信徒同心合力所建,其基金係由台灣教會會友、社會人士及加拿大、英國、德國、日本、及美國等各國教會同道所奉獻。
主後1982年4月11日復活節獻堂
Here
is the site of the residence
of Lawyer Lyim, Gi-Hyiong
(Y.H.LIN), and former
member of Provincial
Assembly. Mr. Lyim’s
mother and twin daughters
were murdered mysteriously
and cruelly at this
place at noon, February
28, 1980. The oldest
daughter survived by
the mercy of God after
six stabs.
After
the murders Mrs. Lyim,
Png So-Bin began to
seek the gospel by the
guidance of the Holy
Spirit. She hoped this
house would become a
church to witness to
the righteousness of
God and the gospel of
forgiveness and salvation.
Thus this church is
called Gikong Church-the
church of the light
of the righteousness
of God.
THE
FOUNDATION OF THIS CHURCH
IS JESUS CHRIST
Christians
and good willed friends
in Taiwan, as well as
Christians in Canada,
England, Germany, Japan,
and the United States,
etc. gave funds for
this building.
This
Church is established
by ecumenical cooperation
And
Dedicated
on Easter Sunday, April
11, 1982
