“Walk It Out" Email Update from Laurentian Wesleyan Church
Inspiration and Information to Help You "Walk Out" Your Faith Everyday.
Thursday, June 10, 2021
Hey Everybody
I pray you are filled with the grace and peace of Jesus today.
Last Sunday, June 6th - Get Back to Your First Love
What a Sunday! Three services, each with their own flavour, and I enjoyed every taste (ok, I’ll stop…ha). Thanks for trying this little experiment together. I thought it went great.
We began our new sermon series, “Portraits of the Church”, and looked at the letter to the church in Ephesus. Don’t forsake your first love!

Just a little note on change.
Today during our Pastor’s Prayer Zoom call, Pastor Brent from Greenwood Baptist shared how none of us are experts on prayer, so we keep praying (my paraphrase). Isn’t that true! As followers of Jesus, we are always growing in our understanding and practice of prayer. Growing means we change. If I could fast forward 5 years, I would hope I’m not the same man I am today. I hope I would have grown, and be a little bit more like Christ. Not all change is good, but change itself is non-negotiable. If we’re breathing, we’re changing. Are we changing to be more like Christ…that’s the question. "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” (Isaiah 43:19)
Speaking of change…
As your pastor, it’s fun keeping track of the provincial guidelines for churches concerning Covid and how they keep changing (sarcasm intended…it’s not really that fun🥴). The province has made an unexpected, but welcome change which will enable us to meet more freely in the coming weeks. However, for this Sunday, June 6th, I’ve decided we’re going to keep our 3 Sunday services as already announced. So…
This Sunday, June 13th, join us online, or, for one of our 3 in-person services.
•8am - In the Sanctuary (North Side)
•10am - In the Sanctuary (South Side) and Online
•11:15am - In the Basement (this is the cool service! 🧊😊)
Register at www.laurentianchurch.com or give me a call at 705-494-9710.
Online service continues every Sunday, at a NEW TIME…10:00am. Find the links at www.laurentianchurch.com
We’ll have more to share this Sunday about future services, so watch for that.

Prayer Update
•Pray for London, Ontario as they grieve the senseless loss of this family in the hit and run this week. All people, no matter if they share our faith or not, should be treated with dignity, respect and love. We are all made in God’s image.
•It’s Armed Forces Day. Pray for those who stand ready to serve. We are grateful for you and your contribution to our community!
•Pray for for those dealing with addictions, that they can find hope and healing in Jesus, and help and harmony in the church.
If you have a prayer request you’d like to share, please let me know.

Do you have a heart for missions?🌍🌎🌏
Do you want to see our church’s heart for missions grow?🌱
We’re looking for someone to take up the mantle of missions in our church. This would mean being an advocate for what God is doing around the world, including the missionaries and the ministries our Change for Change offering touches. If you think this might be you, let’s talk.
