Church News and Service Information for July 12th, 2026

Dear Friends in Christ,

I want to begin by expressing our thanks to John Nicholson, and the Glenarm Cemetery Board members who prepared the decoration day service at the Glenarm Cemetery last Sunday. Also to those who have faithfully cared for the cemetery over the years. The service went beautifully, filled with sacred music and godly reflection. On behalf of the Cemetery Board, I want to express our deep appreciation to everyone who attended and helped out in various ways.

Alongside this note, I would like to share a few important updates and thoughts.

First, my wife and I want to sincerely thank you for all your prayers and kind thoughts while we were away. We truly enjoyed our time with our loved ones back in our homeland of Korea. I look forward to sharing some reflections on our time away with you during an upcoming Sunday service.

Second, we are incredibly grateful to our guest speakers–Margaret, Lizz, Dan, Rev. Ingram, Mark, Shane, and Dale–who shared the wonderful Word of God with you during my absence. We also want to extend a special thank you to the Rev. Ian Marnoch for providing emergency pastoral care while I was away.

Third, on behalf of St. Andrew’s, I would like to express our deepest and most heartfelt condolences to the families in our congregation who have recently lost their loved ones. We continue to keep you in our hearts and prayers, and we deeply appreciate all that your loved ones did for our church and our community over the years.

Fourth, we continue to lift up in prayer our friends who are recovering from surgeries, receiving ongoing medical treatments, or waiting for further examinations. Please know that you and your families are continually in our thoughts and prayers.

With these updates in mind, I want to warmly invite you  to join us for our hybrid worship service this Sunday, July 12, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, Fenelon Falls.

During the service, we will explore Part 2 of our Transformed Sermon Series: How to Get Closer to God (Spiritual Health).

We look forward to worshiping with you—whether in person or online!

Blessings,

Caleb
