St.Andrew's Presbyterian Church Fenelon Falls

Dear Friends,

This Sunday is Father’s Day. Let us wish a “Happy Father’s Day” to all the dads and granddads. The first of God’s Ten Commandments with our fellow beings is “Honor your father and your mother so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.” (Exodus 20:12). This is God’s direction with His promise upon us. We will celebrate this day by remembering the lives of our fathers and appreciating their love and work for us. We will focus our hearts on “the Mighty God and Everlasting Father” (Isaiah 9:6) while worshipping Him with all our hearts. Through children’s time, we will learn our Heavenly Father’s power and protection and its song “My God is so big…”. We will also explore our Father’s Love Letter at the video corner. We will also have the third part of the “Seven Churches in Revelation” sermon series, titled “Pergamum – The Compromising Church.”

With this introduction, I invite you to assemble for the June 19th hybrid service. As usual, the worship will be held at 10:00 a.m. this Sunday at St. Andrew’s Church, Fenelon Falls. This sacred gathering will also be broadcasted via Zoom, and the Zoom link 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.

Upcoming Services/Meetings:
June 5 – July 17: Seven Churches of Revelation Series
July 3: Communion
July 3: Decoration Service at Knox Cemetery
July 4-8: Vacation Bible School (now called BLAST) at Trentside Baptist Church Fenelon Falls run by the Association of Churches
July 6 – August 8: Wednesday Morning Prayer Meetings (More detailed info about this venue will be shared later.)

“Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth” (Revelation 2:16).

Blessings,

Caleb

Dear Friends,

As reformed Christians, we believe that the Lord our God has three distinct divine characters: “God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.” Since the time of Creation, the Triune Lord has been working together to show us good examples of Godly Team Ministry. When the Creator God made humans, He said, “Let us (the Father, the Son, and the Spirit) make mankind in our image, in our likeness…” (Genesis 1:26). Did you notice that God did not use a singular form of pronouns but a plural structure? Before Jesus Christ was ascended into heaven, He gave the disciples the Great Commission by saying: “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…” (Matt. 28:19). This sacred fact has been described as a Holy Communion of “Three Persons in the One Triune God.” The Lord has mysteriously helped our community, our church, our loved ones and us in the past, is with all of the godly participants at present, and will continuously send the Supernatural Power to each of us. This Sunday, we will celebrate “The Holy Trinity” in our worship service. We will learn the sacred meanings of the Trinity while listening to the children’s story and viewing the video entitled “God.” We will also have the second part of the “Seven Churches in Revelation” sermon series, titled “Smyrna – The Victor’s Crown.”

With this introduction, I invite you to assemble for the June 12th Hybrid Service this Sunday. As usual, the worship will be held at 10:00 a.m. at St. Andrew’s Church, Fenelon Falls. This gathering will also be broadcasted via Zoom, and the Zoom link below will open at 9:45 a.m. The announcement slides will be presented prior to the service both at the sanctuary and on Zoom. A copy of the service info, including the message, is attached.

Dear Friends,

Firstly, I want to thank the following guest speakers, Dan Schley, Mark Mitchell, Rev. Barney Grace, Ray Coker, and Rev. Henry Huberts, for the Word of God they have shared with His people during my vacation. My wife, Soon, and I also want to show our appreciation for all the prayers you have requested for our trip to Korea and our stay there. I have to confess that those divine petitions have helped us experience God’s special provision and guidance more than we could ever imagine!

Secondly, I am so thrilled to begin with this year’s third sermon series called the “Seven Churches of Revelation,” followed by “Fruit of the Spirit” and “God’s Dream for Your Life.” In this new topic, we will explore Jesus’ evaluations of each church from Revelation chapters 2 and 3. Our bodies are also known as “the temple of the Holy Spirit” in the Bible (1 Corinthians 6:19). In a spiritual sense, we, as not only a church but also individual Christians, can be the religious gatherings of Christ. Through this episode, I want us to pay attention to Jesus’ visitation to our church and our heart and learn Christ’s direction in our spiritually adventurous race.

Thirdly, I want to write brief words about the Kid’s Corner in our services. A couple of Sundays ago, Rev. Grace called it the following phrase, “Message for the Young or Young at heart.” I like this description. Regardless of age, we are all children of God when we trust the Lord. In the coming hybrid services, we will continuously have children’s time differently. Children are welcome to join us in the sanctuary and via Zoom!

Fourthly, if you and/or anyone you know need our prayers, please let an elder and/or me know. We, as a church, want to present your requests to our Almighty God on your behalf. During our devotion to the Lord, we can make petitions for those who have been in challenging situations.

With these notes, I want to invite you to assemble for the June 5th Hybrid Service this Sunday. As usual, the worship service will be held at 10:00 a.m. at St. Andrew’s Church, Fenelon Falls. This sacred assembly will also be broadcasted via Zoom, and the Zoom link below will open at 9:45 a.m. The announcement slides will be presented prior to the service both at the sanctuary and on Zoom. A copy of the service info, including the message, is attached.
