Growing Life Together with God

St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church
StAC LinX Newsletter for June 8, 2022
Sunday, June 12 - THE SACRED - Sacred Death

Sunday, June 12 - THE SACRED - Sacred Death

Rev. Geoffrey Simmins

Death: the single-syllable word that puts an end to life as we know it. How can death be considered as sacred? In this Sunday’s service, we will look at ways that preparing for death with a peaceful and accepting spirit can help us see death as sacred, where God walks with us even during the hardest days. As the United Church’s New Creed puts it, “In life, in death, in life beyond death, God is with us. We are not alone. Thanks be to God.”

For action taken last week following the Open Space Worship and Workshop

Woven into our neighbourhood, growing disciples who love like Jesus.

Rev. Fiona says:
"I have discovered that I am impatient, obsessive, and can get a bit fixated on something that I like to do or I think should happen, which is good and bad.  It gets things done, but maybe doesn’t give others time to catch up!  So thank you to all who supported this endeavour with 3 days notice! The 'Just Do It' Crew had a very successful morning and got all the court areas cleaned up. 
THERE ARE STILL THINGS WE ALL CAN DO TO HELP."
