Pastoral Epistle – September, 6, 2023

Beloved Congregation,Greetings in Jesus!

“It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.”   Isaiah‬ ‭65‬:‭24
We are immensely blessed to be true followers of our Lord.  He hears us whenever we pray and also answers our prayers.  We may not see things happening instantly; but God certainly answers prayers.  
We’ll continue praying for our children:  it will be a new environment for many of our children in school or university.  I request that we continue to uphold our children in prayer.  Also remember our Sunday School.  We want our children to grow in the knowledge and love of God.  We are thankful for our Sunday School superintendent and others who are supporting the children’s ministry in our church.  
Anglican Baseball Tournament:   We are invited to participate in the Anglican Baseball tournament this Saturday, September 9th beginning at 8.00 AM at the Audley Recreation Centre, Ajax. For further details kindly contact Jacinth and Calvin. 
Fasting and Prayer: please come to church on Friday, September 22nd  at 8.00 pm for Intercessory Prayer.  If possible try to fast your dinner. We can break our fast together with some snacks after the prayer.  We desperately need to wait before God for His guidance and blessings.
