Dear Friends,
While studying “40 Days of Community” in a recent Bible study group, I was reminded of the importance of an exceptionally long time. Six to seven weeks would be a proper duration of concreting a new plan or project in our daily lives. For the next six Sundays, we will have a new sermon series based on the current Bible study’s subject, “Better Together,” and learn the divine value of doing God’s mission with one another. For us as a newly formed merged church, these next 40 days would be critical since we are moving forward into a new beginning and a new ministry as a Heavenly team. Please pray about this spiritual adventure and participate in this sacred journey. For us as individual Christ followers, this same period would also be crucial since some of us have planned some things for our loved ones and/or them since the beginning of the fall, some may be thinking of some projects at present, and some can do this type of schedule in the following days. Whatever we do, the Triune Lord wants us to do it for the glory of God, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and by the power of Christ Jesus. Please practice what God has put into our hearts while keeping this in mind. Remember – Nothing too small or big for our Lord Almighty God to fulfill for our loved ones and each of us!
With this note, I invite you to join us in a hybrid worship service at St. Andrew’s Fenelon Falls on Sunday, September 25, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. This Sunday, we will conclude by exploring the first part of the Book of Genesis regarding “Babel and the Day of Pentecost” (Genesis 11 & Acts 2). We will sing more hymns and watch two videos about the tower of Babel and the summary of Genesis chapters 1 to 11. A virtual fellowship through Zoom will take place for those interested after the service. This sacred assembly will also be broadcasted online. The Zoom link below will open at 9:45 a.m. Before the service, the announcement slides will be presented to the congregation at the sanctuary and on Zoom.

Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth” (Genesis 11:4).
Blessings,
