In your Prayers

Please remember those in mourning, those being treated for cancer, those recovering from surgery, those who have tested positive with COVID-19, our elderly and shut-in friends, all those under doctor’s care, and all those separated from family due to the COVID-19 restrictions. For those suffering with anxiety, depression, and those who are unemployed or underemployed. Those coping with the chances and changes of life.  Restore Canada and the world in health and livelihood, and preserve us from pestilence and fear.

Addendum from Pastor Zakel: 
Dearly beloved brothers and sisters of our Lord,
Please don’t hesitate to contact me (by phone, email, or through the elders), don’t feel like you’re bothering me – especially if you are entering the hospital for any reason – I want to hear from you, I want to bring you God’s word and pray with you. I would love to see you at church; but please know that I will gladly come and see you when and where I can.
Christ’s peace be with you always,
In Him!
Pastor Zakel
