“Walk It Out" Email Update from Laurentian Wesleyan Church
Inspiration and Information to Help You "Walk Out" Your Faith Everyday.
Friday, July 02, 2021
Hey Everybody
I pray you are filled with the grace and peace of Jesus today.
Chrissy and I had a great time earlier this week visiting with my family in Roblin. Thank you for your prayers for my Dad. The spot on his head was cancer, but they are confident they got it all. PTL! His health problems couldn’t stop him from putting on a full TURKEY DINNER for the family on Sunday night. Yum. A great time was had by all. Thanks for your prayers.

Happy Belated Canada Day!
There has been much discussion about Canada Day this year. As I’ve been reflecting, I would add this thought.
I think sometimes we’re looking for a perfect nation. Such a thing does not exist. The only one who was perfect is Jesus Christ.
(1 Peter 1:18-19 - https://www.bible.com/111/1pe.1.18-19.niv)
So I pray for our imperfect nation of Canada.
Grateful for many things.
Reflecting on many things.
Praying for many things.
God keep our land.
As we all continue to learn and grow regarding Canada’s relationship with her Indigenous peoples, I’ll continue to share some links and resources along the way. This is a 30 minute video that gives some meaningful insight from a Christian perspective, and how we as Christians can and should respond. Let’s keep praying and talking. https://youtu.be/uRJToqK7NzQ

A Report You Don’t Want to Miss
I guarantee this is the most memorable report you’ll ever hear. Tony Verlinden (your delegate) and I heard it at the District Conference for the Central Canada District of the Wesleyan Church last Saturday.
You'll hear the challenge...that every church on our district connect with Global Partners and World Hope...and we've already done that! Way to go Laurentian! Let's keep our eyes, hearts, prayers and resources looking not only to our church, but beyond.
Click the link to watch the video...you'll be glad you did 😃🎶
Thanks Dan James Wallis (pastor at Cornerstone in North Gower, ON, and our district missions committee for putting it together!
