Pat Cunningham We welcome you who have gathered in the house of the Lord today. We come to praise God, to rejoice in Christ our Redeemer and to hear the Word of the Lord as it is impressed upon our hearts by the Holy Spirit. Jesus promised, “For where two or three come together in My Name, there am I with them.” And so as our King is in attendance, let us worship Him with joy and reverence, in spirit and in truth. We want especially to welcome any visitors who are with us today. We are glad you have come. Visitors and the congregation are invited to use the cards in the pew rack as a convenient means of communication with the Pastor or church leadership. Completed cards may be placed in the offering plate when it is passed. We are happy to have Dylan Nickolson with us this morning from Riverside Baptist Church. Dylan will be reporting on his missions trip to the Philippines this past summer. Dylan is also preparing to go on a Teen Mission trip to Nepal this summer where he will be involved in children's ministry and construction at Mendies Haven Children’s Home in Kathmandu.

Message.. Meeting the Lamb Hymn of Response #3 “Crown Him with Many Crowns” (1 & 3) Benediction 12:45 pm 5:00 pm Karen Worship Service South Slavic Evening Service Something to think about…. “… we need… a radical encounter with God’s kingdom breaking into our lives. We need to experience relationships being rearranged, brokenness being healed, and evil structures being brought down in and around us. We need to see that Jesus conquers the addictions of sin (be them chemical or relational) and that God is at work in the darkest places because God has already been to those places (on the cross).” - David E. Fitch, Geoff Holsclaw, Prodigal Christianity This Week at Grace . . . Ministry Opportunity – As a new outreach, Ambassador Baptist Church has just begun providing a community meal for the neighbourhood on Wednesday nights. The food is prepared and provided, but 6-8 servers are needed each week, arriving at 4:45 pm, done by 7:00 pm to take care of table and beverage set-up, serving food and clean-up as well as greeting at the tables. We have said a team from Grace could help with this once every 8 weeks. If this sounds like a way you could serve the Lord, please sign the sheet in the foyer. We will contact you when our turn comes up. The first time it is our turn is Wednesday, February 11, 2015. New Sex Education Curriculum – The Ontario Government is resurrecting the controversial Sex Ed curriculum that was ‘shelved’ in 2010 over parental concerns that it was ageinappropriate, overly explicit, and undermined the religious beliefs of many families. Learm more at CampaignLife Coalition.com. Then contact your school trustee and MPP with concerns. Also, please see letter to Minister of Education, Hon. Liz Sandals from Bruce Clemenger, President of the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada included in today’s bulletin. Nursery: A supervised nursery is available for children up to age 3.
