Reaching Out - Again...

Hello, friends!

We're beginning - again - the process of looking for a crisis pregnancy center with which we can partner.  Our aim is to offer Bethany House as an outpost for such a ministry in Mount Sterling - free of charge and with no strings attached.

We've attempted this offer before, but found reservations - whether against partnering with us because of the Catholic nature of Anglicanism we're not sure.  So please join us in praying that we find fellow Christians who will see the wide-open opportunity we're offering and who will see us as co-laborers in the vineyard of the Lord.

Thank you!
Father Todd

From the vicar...

Dear Friends,

As Christians in the Anglican way, we aim to live the Gospel of Life.  We believe that a Christian cannot support things like abortion or euthanasia.  But we also believe that Christians (together and individually) must do everything we can to support and care for those who are questioning God's gift of life.

I think you will find this article from BreakPoint a helpful read.  Christian Supporters of Abortion?

Each of us needs a theology of life - a way of applying and living what the Bible teaches us about God's gift of life.  May you find a place where God is calling you to minister his love and mercy to those questioning his gift of life!

God bless you!

Father Todd

A Fond and Fervent Prayer...

Amen and amen!!

Lord, give us a fidgety, squirmy, can't-sit-still crowd of young families each Sunday (and Thursday, too)!

The Sunday Sermon...

Hello, friends!

We’d like to share the sermon from Sunday, April 23, AD 2017 – The Second Sunday of Easter, according to the Church’s calendar (see the video below).

This was a very special Lord’s Day – not only was it the Second Sunday of Easter (on the Church’s calendar, Easter is not just a day, it’s a season beginning on Resurrection Sunday and ending on Pentecost Sunday!), it was also Divine Mercy Sunday.

The Image of our Lord Jesus above is called the Divine Mercy.  Why?  Because it shows the blood and water which flowed from his heart (when his side was pierced as he hung upon the cross).  The blood and water represent the mercy that is shed upon sinners.

The Second Sunday of Easter is always Divine Mercy Sunday because the Gospel reading on that Sunday is always John 20:19-31.  In it, the risen Jesus enters the upper room on the evening of Resurrection Day, shows himself to the disciples, breathes on them, and says, “Receive the Holy Spirit.  If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”

The mercy made real on the cross is now given to us in the forgiveness of sins!  Father Todd’s sermon from this Sunday focuses in on that glorious truth.

If you can, join us for worship on Sunday!  We dress casually and gather at 10:30am at Bethany House (408 Levee Road in Mt. Sterling - across from the MCHS football stadium).

There’s lots of parking behind Bethany House.  If you need a ride, call us at 859-404-8374.

God bless you!
