Our little church remains active. On Sunday we celebrated the baptism of five people. Two in a hot tub; three in the lake!
Yesterday we did the wake and today we continue with the service, bringing closure for some of our 1st Nations friends who are saying farewell to a loved relative. Both are opportunities to share the good news of the Gospel, of the joy of having a personal relationship with Jesus. The baptism, a celebration that gives testimony of dying to self and rising to a new life in Christ; the funeral, a celebration that gives testimony of dying and rising to a new life with Christ.
My prayer for you this week:
“I pray that you are like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; trusting in God’s unfailing love for ever and ever; praising Him forever for what He has done; hoping in His name, for His name is good; and praising Him in the presence of His saints. Amen.” Psalm 52:8-9
Have a great week.

The Anonymous’ message belongs to me, as I had written it in Google Chrome.
I and my family are an Olive tree in the Garden of Heaven. God our Father, had blessed us with His choicest blessings and we are flourishing. In this season, with a grateful heart we praise Him and thank Him for all the wonderful days He had granted us and made us enjoy our life, throughout this year.
May His name be glorified. He loves us with an everlasting Love.
Thanks for the devotional. We wish you a blessed New Year.
