“One
does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of
God.” Jesus faced the
same temptations that any of us face. No
one is tempted by the “bad” but only by what appears to be “good.” True, we are not in the wilderness, but a time
in the wilderness might not be a bad thing. Without distractions, temptations are more
terrifying, but are unmasked.
We are without a musician today. Please note the special
changes in the Order of Worship (the Psalm as opening, the Offertory prayer,
the Post-Communion) and the a capella
singing of the Hymn of the Day. The
usual part of the service will be spoken.
Welcome!
Everyone is
invited to stay for fellowship after the service.
We pray today for all
the sick and shut-ins in our congregation, especially Colin & Elfriede
Hayes, Diane Corns, Katie Ungar, Else Kalmbach and her son, Nancy Mayberry, Hilda Moritz, George &
Astrid Simonis and John Weninger. May
God grant all of them His healing grace in Jesus Christ. Amen.
Offering
Envelopes - Everyone has unnumbered envelopes, so please remember to put your name, date
and donation amount on the front of each envelope so you get credit for your donations. If you need more envelopes, there are some in
the Fellowship Hall.
PAR
– Pre-Authorized Remittance – Your
church needs you! Signing up for PAR
allows you to make donations on a monthly basis even if you’re not in
church. Application forms are available
on the table in the Fellowship Hall. All
you have to do is complete the form, attach a VOID cheque and put it in the
offering plate or in the church office.
Communion
Cards are required to be completed once per year per person. If you
have not completed one yet this year, please ask the usher for one.
The
Corner Cupboard is always in need. Please help by bringing in non-perishable
goods and placing them in the box outside the Sacristy. Monetary donations are also accepted.
