St. George's News Pentecost 8 Holy Communion was celebrated at 11:15 by the Rev. Cliff Evans out of the Book of Common Prayer. The Rev. Evans' sermon was on the parable of the Weeds of the Field. We often ask why God allows so much evil in the world. Evil wears a human face and when God stops the evil it will be the end of the world. At that time, God will send his angels to collect out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all evil doers and will throw them into the furnace of fire.The righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of the Father. Next week July 25 will be morning Prayer at 11:15 a.m. Gord Leek, Parish Lay Reader, will be the guest speaker. Our sincere' thanks to Rev. Evans for the sèrvices of Holy Communion while Padre Saunders is away. Have a safe and happy summer: summer: See yoti in church.
