Good afternoon everyone. What a beautiful day! You can really feel spring in the air. Hope you are doing well and resting in the sufficiency of God. A great verse to remember in these days is "God's 911", Psalm 91:1-Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
Here's what I'd like to share with you today:

Sunday's Livestream
I hope you'll join us for our livestream on Sunday. I'll be continuing my series on the Hope of Easter and will be looking at the topic of forgiveness. Please pray for my preparations as I intend to share the gospel message of the hope that comes from forgiveness through Jesus. Hope to 'see' you at 11!
Closing Thoughts:
I've been thinking about this whole situation a lot lately (hardly surprising!). None of us have been trained to do this. We’ve never gone through an epidemic like the COVID-19 before. Fear is everywhere. I’m sure many of you are wrestling with this new reality. Over the course of my regular updates I'd like to share some truths with you that I hope will be an encouragement and help to to trust in God and not fall to our enemy's lies. Here's the first one:
Not everything you hear is true.
Not everyone with an opinion on the Internet, television, and social media knows what they’re talking about. You need to be selective with who you listen to during this time. Many people in the coming days will have their own agendas—financial, political, etc.—for this crisis. The Bible says in Proverbs 13:16, “The prudent man always acts out of knowledge.” In other words, act out of knowledge and not fear. Make it a priority to get your facts from people who are trustworthy. That's why we have a link to the Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health Unit website on our home page. We want you to have a source of proper information.
May God flow in you and flow through you!
In His grip,
Pastor Chris
