Pentecost is the festival of the Church. The Church
is meant to be the expression of the presence of God among people. It is not
meant to be a “museum for saints”, rather it is to be a “hospital for sinners.”
The life of the Spirit is found there for those who wish to find it. The fire
of the Spirit burns there; not in the building we conveniently call a church,
but in the hearts of the people who really are The Church.
Once again, we welcome Mrs. Gertie Croft as our minister of music
today.
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.
Our deepest
sympathies go out to Rick & Dita Cornelissen and family. Rick’s father passed away on May 9. Even in their sorrow, may they know the
comfort of the Lord's Resurrection and the church's prayers.
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
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.

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. Due to special things atTrinity, the next meetings (May 25) will be held at Trinity as well as the following final three.
