Message from St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Golden, BC

Responses from Parishioners at St. Paul’s Anglican Church Golden, British Columbia!

My prayer for the Anglican Church of Canada in 2019 is

• That the church will either marry gay and lesbian couples or get out of the marriage business altogether and bless civil unions.
• One Church under God, with Our Lord Jesus Christ reigning on Earth in Jerusalem.
• Is still in existence
• That the church will shine as a place of love and inclusiveness and will preach and act for love, justice and peace.
• That it is vibrant, alive and influencial in the broader community. More people …. young and old, families also. Mostly, that the joy that is experienced with faith is obvious and abundant!
• That we have a beautiful full congregation full of enjoymnet for all who attend: young and old.
• Financially stable
• Following radical charge of the Sprit- guiding us in ways we could never imagine.
• Challenge!
• For continued love and help to all.
• That Christ will have come; that his thousand year reign will have begun.
• I pray that the Anglican Church preaches the Gospel in Canada and the world. In Christ Jesus name. Amen.
• A large enough congregation to be financially self-sustaining.
• That we will build a happier and healthier community within the church and build a closer family.
• I pray that we shall have accord among all parts of the Anglican Communion, allowing us to go ahead in our mission to serve Christ in this world.
• I pray that we will continue to serve our communities, our country and the world in the guiding and guarding light of Christ and continue to discern Jesus’ radical call with integrity, humility and gracious love.
