Pastoral Epistle – February 25, ’21

Beloved congregation,

Greetings in Jesus.

“We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”  Ephesians 2:10

It is marvelous to understand that we are created in Christ for good works.  That is why good works is an integral part of our lifestyle, even more during the lent season. 

This Sunday is crucial for our church as we choose and elect new officers for this fiscal year. Our Annual Vestry Meeting will commence soon after service.  You are invited to participate in our vestry meeting.  Please pray for God’s guidance for our church.

Here is the link for a vestry motion for social justice and advocacy this year.  Please go through and we can decide on Vestry day. 

Social Justice Vestry Motion – The Diocese of Toronto (anglican.ca)

We are continuing our journey through this pandemic.  We are thankful for the progress we’ve made, but we still have a long way to go.  Let us press forward. 

I am thankful for all our volunteers who have served faithfully throughout this year in various ways.  May our Lord richly reward your good works.  May our Lord enable us to continue in good works. 

Please join our Lent Service every Wednesday at 7.30 pm.  We are meditating on the Messianic names of Jesus. 

This Wednesday we meditated on His name as “Wonderful”

First we saw how Jesus is Divine as well as Human 

Second we saw that he is a Father and a Mother to us, who fights our battles and comforts us like a mother.

 I’m attaching the lent service sermon slides if you want to go through and meditate.

Our regular Sunday service is at 10.30 am.
