Dear Church Family,
Good news out of New Brunswick. Effective immediately, outdoor spaces, such
as parks, beaches and golf courses are reopening. And people
can choose one other household to partner with to form a "two-family
bubble." A plan to reopen Ontario
will be released next week. I think our political
leaders might be familiar with Proverbs 13:12:
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick,” because those items are instilling in us a glimmer of
hope.
Hope is such a precious thing, and no one knows that better
than us Christians. Those who hope in
the Lord will renew their strength (Isaiah 40:31); we can put our hope in God’s
unfailing love (Psalm 147:11). And my
favourite verse: “and hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out
his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us” (Romans
5:5).
We don’t know what the plan for Ontario looks like, and we
don’t know the time frame. But we can be
hopeful that God will see us through this.
Pastor Rita
