Good afternoon!
God calls us to live each day with love, welcoming others just as He has welcomed us. Even in our everyday routines, we can be part of His work by showing kindness, forgiveness, and hope. As we walk in faith together, let’s remember that God is always making things new—both in our hearts and in the world around us.

AFTERNOON SERVICES: For those who are unable to attend morning services, there is an afternoon study and prayer at 1:30PM every Sunday at St. Giles led by Rev. Chandra.
May 18th, the Fifth Sunday of Easter: This Sunday, we are led in worship by Chandra our minister, by our St. Giles choir, and by Malcolm Edwards, our new music leader. This week’s Scripture readings—John 13:31-35, Revelation 21:1-7, and Acts 11:11-18—remind us that following Jesus means embodying His love, participating in God’s renewing work, and warmly welcoming others into His family. Love is more than a command; it is the powerful force through which God is changing the world.
SCRIPTURE PASSAGE FOR REFLECTION:
Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said,
‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit’.
Acts 11:16
