Pastoral Epistle – October 20, 2021

Posted on: October 20th, 2021 by St. Bede Anglican Church

Beloved congregation,

Greetings in Jesus!
“Be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded”! ‭‭II Chronicles‬ ‭15: 7

Here is our Lord encouraging His people to be strong. We are also called to refuse to allow our hands to be weak.  The Lord has His rewards for His people who are determined to be strong in the face of adversity.  So let us be strong in our Lord.

Appreciate all our parishioners who joined our Bishop’s Company Cabaret on Friday, October 15th. Please feel free to support the ministry of our Bishops as the Lord leads you. You can contact me if you have any questions. 

I encourage everyone who has been worshiping from home for a long time.  Please pre register and join in person worship service.  Worshiping virtually is only a set up for convenience.  We must do all we can to physically attend service and partake at the Lord’s table in Holy Communion. Pre-registration link  to attend in person service. Please Pre Register here for this Sunday’s  Worship Service:

This Sunday onwards we will have in person Sunday School as well.  Please try to bring your children to church for Sunday school.

A note to our Young Adults and Youth.  I encourage you to participate in Praise and Worship every Fourth Sunday.  You can contact your coordinator.  They will guide you.  Bring your talents and use them for the kingdom of God. The Lord will richly reward you.
For October 31st fifth Sunday, as I announced,  I invite you to participate with songs and testimonies.  Please give your name to me at the earliest. 

Please remember our Harvest Festival on Saturday, November 6th beginning at 6.00 pm.  Please contact any of our wardens for details of how you can be a part of this celebration.
