St. John's, Grand Bend

The church service was a true celebration today.

The sanctuary was beautifully decorated with the colours of fire inspired by the tongues of fire as which the Holy Spirit came to rest on the disciples at Pentecost.

Flames of fire were lit beneath a chime and balloons, creating motion in the air around them.

Even many of the congregants wore the colours of fire, including Reverend Jim who started out wearing his red barbecuing apron!

And then, following the service, the celebration continued with fire roasted burgers and sausages.

God is good.

Week by week in our worship, we are reminded of the Great Commandments to love the Lord our God with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind, and all our strength; and to love our neighbours as ourselves. As we come to this holy day we know as Ash Wednesday, we confess how far short we fall of such love and we pray that God will “create and make in us new and contrite hearts”.
