Minister’s Corner

Shalom aleikhem! שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם Peace be upon you!

Good morning and thank you for joining our worship gathering. This is the time we’ve set apart, not to run away from our problems or the world, but to make a conscious effort to bring our problems before God and leave them at His feet. This is the time when we learn to trust in His goodness and in His mercy. This is also a time when we are vulnerable and learn to trust in our brothers and sisters in faith. We’ve gathered to sing and pray. Some exquisite, some ordinary or bland. Sometimes we sound divine, other times like a broken fiddle, but God is only after our hearts. So, my prayer is that today you worship Him with your heart before your mind and with your mind before your lips. Leave everything that burdens you before Him and experience His grace, mercy and freedom for that is His promise to you!

This Wednesday – 22^nd January – Fellowship Dinner & Bible Class – 6:00PM

Please make plans to join us for our BYOD (Bring Your Own Dinner) mid-week Fellowship at 6PM on Wednesday. This is a great time to connect, strengthen relationships and catch up with one another.

From 7PM we will have a Bible Study on the topic of suffering.

Birthdays this week: Caleb Simmons (21^st); Jan Heafner (23^rd)

Please plan to join our Bible Reading group. This session they will be reading through the New Testament. You can use the same Zoom link as you use to join the services on Sunday morning.
