培正 匡社同學鄺國輝牧師在加拿大逝世

二零一九年七月二十三曰接匡社林國 威同學電郵吿知，香港培正中學匡社同學鄺國輝在七月十九日晚在多倫多因心臟病發不治逝世（見下面Bill Lam 電郵），當日林國威同學到加拿大多倫多探望同級好友鄺國輝牧師，因林國威是位虔誠的基督徒常和鄺牧師來往。中午時一同共進午餐交談甚歡，但卻在下午鄺牧師感覺不適，送醫急救不幸不治魂歸天國安息主懷。安息禮拜在七月二十六曰Chapel Ridge Funeral Home 舉行，安葬於Highland Hills Memorial Gardens in Gormley, Ontario。在匡社同學中有眾多的出名科學家、教授及工程師，同時亦感謝神在培正理工精英中香港培正匡社有三位獻身事奉基督的出名牧者: 美國羅省的張子華牧師，加拿大多倫多的鄺國輝牧師，及在香港的曾任華福總干事的陳喜謙牧師，現在張子華牧師及鄺國輝牧師巳先後辭世，聽聞陳喜謙牧師身體亦欠佳。我曾多次和鄺牧師交談傳福音的事，在加拿大多倫多和溫哥華，也曽在香港及大陸廣州及清遠匡社同學聚會及旅遊時，以及在美國賭城拉斯維加斯匡社慶賀離校四十五周年時，互相激勵傳主的福音。關於鄺牧師逝世的信息及追思禮拜進行情況，請看林國威傳給我的資料如下：

「Dear Nestor

I Have not written to you for a long time. I trust that God is with you and has blessed you and your family. Do you remember Johmann Kwong 鄺國輝 Last Friday, I went to Toronto to visit him. He invited me for a nice lunch. Unfortunately, he did not feel well in the afternoon and passed away in the evening of a heart attack! His son wrote me that "...he passed away peacefully... ". I recall Paul's comment that "For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain...I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far..." Phillipians 11:21-25. Do you know how to tell our classmates? 林國威 Bill Lam

最近重新翻閲我曽參與編寫的「匡社離校四十五周年特刋」中鄺國輝寄來的他的專頁，他以一個牧師懷著主耶穌要廣傳福音大使命的決心和誠意，創作寫下一首表達自己親身感受的散文詩歌「腳印」，在短短的詩歌中見証主對信徒的不離不棄同在同行，明顯看見在自己腳印旁有主的同行腳印，但在信徒遭遇困難重重壓力時卻只看見行進時的一雙腳印，當信徒以為主離棄他而失望時，才發現這雙更深的腳印是主背負著他沉重負擔包袱行走時留下的，從而增強信心和感恩。為 了使讀者對這首詩有其共鳴，現附特刋的鄺國輝專頁影印如下：
