Dear Friends,

Have we been inspired to pursue our God-empowered dream in the coming days? This Sunday, we will explore God’s new things for our loved ones, our church and each of us and look around with the eyes of faith what God is preparing during our spiritual adventure. In addition to the message “Open to a New Thing,” we will view two video presentations. The first one is designed for young people to learn some stories after the Cross – the death of Jesus and the Crown – the resurrection of Christ. The second one is prepared for those who want to know more about a spiritual being called “The New Humanity” that God has made through the ministry of Jesus Christ. During prayer time, we will have the opportunity of asking God to provide His healing and comfort for our loved ones and us. After the service, a Zoom fellowship will be held for those online participants who wish to join via Zoom.

As usual, in-person worship will be held at St. Andrew’s Fenelon Falls on Sunday, April 24, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. A virtual service will also be broadcast via Zoom at the same time. The Zoom link will open at 9:45 a.m., and the announcement slides will be presented before the service both at the sanctuary and on Zoom. A copy of the service info, including the sermon, is attached.

Please remember that everyone is encouraged to wear a mask for the sake of everyone while being inside of the church and during the service.

“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. The wild animals honor me, the Jackals and the owls, because I provide water in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland to give drink to my people, my chosen, the people I formed for myself that they may proclaim my praise” (Isaiah 43:19-21).

Blessings,

Dear Friends,

Happy Easter! This Sunday, we will conclude our sermon series “God’s Dream for Your Life” with the final stage of faith called “From Dead-End to Deliverance.” Has any of us and/or our loved one ever gone through a nowhere turn situation? I believe that many of us have encountered those stumbling obstacles in our faith journey. While worshipping God with all our hearts on Easter Sunday, we can express our sincere gratitude to the Lord who has saved our loved ones and us from difficulties. We can perceive what God is doing for our loved ones and us today. Furthermore, by faith and in prayer, we can expect something great from the Lord our Saviour and attempt something great to the Lord our Deliver in the coming days.

On top of the Easter sermon described above, we will have special music brought to us by Reid Torrey, Piper. We will also have two video presentations. The first one called “Ukraine Easter Eggs” was done by the late Anne Fernley. On Easter Sunday, either in 2009 or 2010, she shared a wonderful story on that topic. During this Easter celebration, our prayers and thoughts go to those affected by the terrible Russians’ invasions of Ukraine. May God’s Everlasting Eternal Word be upon the Ukraine people! Христос воскрес! – Christ has risen! The second one is about Luke’s account of the Resurrection of Jesus.

With this note, this Easter Sunday, I want to invite you to explore the vision of God who raised His Only Son, Jesus Christ, from the dead. As usual, the worship will begin at 10:00 a.m., on Sunday, April 17, 2022, via Zoom. The Zoom link will open at 9:45 a.m., and the announcement slides will be played before the service. A copy of the service info, including the sermon, is attached.

I am taking my holiday from April 27 to June 1, 2022. My wife and I plan to take my mom back to her home during that time. We would appreciate your prayers for our safe trip. During my absence, Rev. Bob Quick will be covering pastoral emergency care. You can get his contact info from your elders.

The words “it was credited to him” were written not for him alone, 24 but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness—for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification (Romans 4:23-25).

Blessings,

Caleb
