摘要

自1890年，瑞典聖潔會響應戴德生(Hudson Taylor)的呼召，差派宣教士到中國來，至今已有119年，在台灣的宣教事工也近56年（1953年至今）。綜觀今日中華聖潔會的規模和許多大教派相比，人數上或堂數上都顯得弱小。然而，當初瑞典差會（Holiness Union）來華宣教的原則與策略是：「到沒有人去的鄉下傳福音、開拓教會。」所以無論是在大陸山西的山區，抑或是台灣的客家庄，所面臨的挑戰都是極大的！五十多年來，在許多宣教士前仆後繼地耕耘下，在北臺灣已建立了十八間教會，使得中華聖潔會成為目前客庄的主要教派之一。
本文以中華聖潔會為論述重點，由中華聖潔會來華（包括大陸、台灣）傳教的過程著手。章節的安排包含了導言及結語，共分九個章節。第二章透過對中華聖潔會的沿革的介紹，瞭解此教派的特色及來華、來台設教的原因。第三章由傳教的區域著手，敘述1953年中華聖潔會來台之前，在大陸宣教發展的狀況，以了解中華聖潔會設教的時空背景。第四章再敘述中華聖潔會在台灣宣教的歷程。第五、六章談到傳教區域的分佈，以及各地會堂的現況。第七章透過敘述傳教人員及信徒之行誼，瞭解其傳承，以及對教會的影響。第八章則探討中華聖潔會宣教之理念與策略，對傳教的影響及獲致的成果，並針對此策略作一評析與檢討。最後在結語中回顧中華聖潔會在大陸及台灣的傳教歷程，指出現今所面臨的轉變及對未來的展望。

It has been 119 years Since Sweden Holiness Church responded to Hudson Taylor’s faith mission by sending missionaries to China in 1890. Missionaries have also spread God’s words in Taiwan for nearly 56 years (since 1953). Compared to other religious organizations, the number of members and locations of China Holiness Church is less significant. However, the principle and spiritual approach of the Sweden Holiness Union is “to spread God’s words and build churches at places where no one wants to go.” For this reason, the missionaries often face great challenges during their faith mission at various remote areas from China’s western part of Shanxi mountain regions to Taiwan’s Hakka village. For more than fifty years, many missionaries have kept the tradition and continued to spread God’s teachings. There are 18 churches that have been established in the northern Taiwan region, which made China Holiness Church one of the main religions in Hakka village.
In the study, we focus on the spiritual teachings and missionary process of China Holiness Church (including the regions of Mainland China and Taiwan). The research will have a total of nine chapters including introduction and conclusion. The second chapter will introduce China Holiness Church’s history, religion characteristic, and motivational reason for building churches in China and Taiwan. The third chapter will study the missionary timetable and participation regions. The chapter will also cover China’s missionaries work before China Holiness Church came to Taiwan in 1953. The fourth chapter will describe China Holiness Church’s historical missionary activities in Taiwan. The fifth and sixth chapters will discuss about the missionary regions, distribution areas, and current progress of member churches. The seventh chapter will describe about the relationship, friendship, and influence among the church personnel and the followers of the church. The eighth chapter will discuss about China Holiness Church’s principles, beliefs, and strategies. Also, the chapter will further evaluate the results and effectiveness of the church’s strategic approach and missionary influence. Finally, the research study will review China Holiness Church’s historical missionary activities and experience in China and Taiwan. Moreover, the final part will discuss about the current changes and future expectations of China Holiness Church.
