In
today’s Gospel reading, Jesus heals the servant of a Roman officer. The leaders of the local synagogue tell Jesus
that this foreigner is worthy of this favour since “he loves our people.” The
officer does not consider himself worthy of the healing or the presence of
Jesus in his house. He trusts that what
Jesus says, where ever he might be, will be enough. The faith of a Gentile, an officer of the
occupation of Israel amazes Jesus and surpasses all he has encountered.
Welcome!
Everyone is
invited to stay for fellowship after the service.
We pray today for all
the sick in our congregation, especially Else Kalmbach and her son, Bob McCrae and
John Weninger. May God grant all of them
His healing grace in Jesus Christ. Amen.
Offering
Envelopes – If you need more envelopes, there are some in the
Fellowship Hall. 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.
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

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.
Bible Study – Until June 15, St. John’s and Trinity Anglican will be hosting an
adult study of “Jesus’ Life and Times.”
This will be an over-view of the society Jesus lived in – Judea, Greece,
and Rome. Our aim is to help people
understand the groups mentioned in the Gospels as well as the societal,
cultural, and political forces surrounding Jesus’ life and message. As usual, the meetings begin at noon and you
should bring a lunch. The remainder of
the meetings will be held at Trinity Anglican Church.
