From Father Iain, All Saints Chiang Mai
Dear Friends,
Jesus sent his disciples out to proclaim “The kingdom of God has come near to you.” But was Jesus a bit premature? What did this mean? Has God’s kingdom come even now, or are we still waiting? We will look at these questions this week at All Saints!
Our scripture readings for this Sunday will be Isaiah 66:10-14, Galatians 6:1-10, and Luke 10:1-11, and we will be singing the hymns A Mighty Fortress, Called as Partners in Christ’s Service, Give Thanks with a Grateful Heart, and God is Love! The readings can be found via this link and past services and sermons can be viewed via the All Saints audio-visual page!
Church Renovations
Five years ago – William, Mary, and a very small Jantra!
We haven’t redecorated since July 2014 but on Sunday you will notice that repair work has begun on our building. The landlord is repairing and replacing some of the rotten wood work, and the wall outside the entrance. He will also be repairing the few places where the roof leaks!
When this is done we will be getting the church repainted! We painted the fence and gate when we moved in but nothing has been done since, and the inside and outside of our building could now do with a fresh coat of paint!
Potluck – Advanced Notice
We will have a potluck on Sunday 21st July to say goodbye to the Chase family and also bon voyage to Jantra who is off to boarding school in India!
Most people get to hear about us via the internet or by word of mouth, so please feel free to pass on this email to others. All are welcome to join us as we share the presence of the risen Jesus in our lives! We hope to see you soon and that you will enjoy worshipping with us,
God bless,
Iain
