"Love," says St Paul, "is our constant calling, in fact, our only calling."

A message from our Pastor,
Father Robert Mitchell:
There are lots of things that I like to do and there are some that I may actually be good at.
I seem to have a knack at knowing what's wrong in someone else's life while floundering in my own. I am very perceptive in judging someone's character while ignoring my own flaws.
"Love," says St Paul, "is our constant calling, in fact, our only calling."
Our Ministry is alive only because of love and compassion.
Others terms such as blame, responsibility or deserved are set aside although not ignored because "You did it to one of my least brothers and sisters, you did it to Me." (Mt 25:(31-40)

Prayer
Mother of God
Light In All Darkness,
Shelter Him
Our flame of hope
With your hands.
And in our times
Of dread and nightmares,
Let Him be our dream of comfort.
And in our times
Of physical pain
And suffering,
let Him be
our healer.
And in our times of separation
From God and one another,
Let Him be
Our communion.
Amen

 

Mission.
We, the worshipping community of Holy Redeemer, accept the challenge of the Gospel: to know, love and serve God and each other by upholding the traditions of our Faith and by building up the. Body of Christ Universal.

 

Thoughts.
Fear and denial are not he answer to preventing HIV infection, protecting yourself from HIV depends on learning the facts and taking steps to prevent infection.
