U Matters

My favourite Christmas present was a piece of paper with two words: Internal Peace. This special person listened to my Christmas Eve sermon where I asked if people would like to receive the gift of peace - eternal, internal, and external.

This gift of internal peace is helpful as I reflect on 2016 and look forward to 2017. Thank you for your faithfulness to Christ and his church that gathers at 22A Kennedy Road. May you experience the peace of God in all its dimensions as you follow his Son in the power of his Spirit.
