Pastoral Epistle – July 17, 2024
Beloved Congregation,
Greetings in Jesus!
“He said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.”
John 6:20
This is an unspeakable blessing! Jesus spoke to His disciples when they were terrified by the storm at midnight. Jesus told them not to be afraid because He was there for them.
Pastor back from Vacation: I am thankful for the refreshing vacation with my family. We had a lot of family time that we enjoyed.
Thank you to Rajini Lyman and Viji Angela: I am immensely thankful to Rajini Lyman for covering for me on July 7th and Viji Angela for leading the service on July 14th. May our Lord richly reward their ministry in the house of the Lord.
Family Retreat: I am looking forward to many of you to join our Family Retreat, Saturday, July 20th we will meet go to Toronto Island Kindly register at the earliest if you haven’t yet.
Here is a message from our wardens:
This Saturday to make sure we can all travel together, please meet at the ferry terminal by 9:30 AM. We’ll be taking the 9:45 AM ferry. Our retreat will be in the church, and we have a few benches outside for children. I don’t think we need chairs. However, it is an individual choice. We will also provide snacks before we start the meeting. If possible, please bring your own water as Varun is bringing only 40 water bottles.
