I have a family member (Joanne) who has struggled the last several years with Parkinson's disease along with Alzheimer's disease. She believes in the power of prayer and together with her husband (Dave) has a sense that God will completely heal her. Please pray for perseverance and comfort for them along with the wisdom, discernment and grace to accept whatever it is God has planned for them. Thank you in advance for your prayers for them.

Lent Devotional

In the church calendar, Lent marks the season leading up to Easter. A common practice during Lent is to “give something up” – to fast from something like Jesus fasted in the desert.

That’s why people often ask: What are you giving up for Lent?

But Lent isn’t just about giving something up. It’s about giving something up to become more like Jesus. About giving something up to gain something else. About giving up anything and everything that keeps us from following Jesus’ way of love.

So, this Lent, we’re asking the question: What would we give up for love?

Tactile Prayer | Autumn Leaves

Autumn is absolutely incredible in all of its colourful splendor. But of course, those colours are actually a signal that we are headed for the dead cold of winter. As the season changes, this is the time of year, as someone has said, when the trees are showing us just how beautiful it can be to let dead things go.
