First Anniversary since WHO declared Coronavirus Pandemic

From Archdeacon Glen Miller’s Desk

The event is designed to acknowledge the anniversary of the declaration that the Covid-19 outbreak had become a pandemic and restrictions on our behaviour were begun.  The Anglican Bishops of the Province of Ontario have published a letter suggesting that on the anniversary (March 11) people from our congregations spend a few minutes in prayer about the pandemic.  I have attached a copy of that letter to this email in case you can’t find it.  The wonderful connection we have with God through prayer is both a lifeline to us and a source of encouragement and strength to the entire Body of Christ.

As we take advantage of this event may God’s Holy Spirit fill our hearts and our lips with praise, thanksgiving, intercessions, and supplications that are appropriate to our personal circumstances.

A prayer For the Mission of the Church

Draw your Church together, O Lord, into one great company of disciples, together following our Lord Jesus Christ into every walk of life, together serving him in his mission to the world, and together witnessing to his love on every continent and island. We ask this in his name and for his sake. Amen. (BAS p. 676)
