This Sunday we come together to celebrate 160 years of God's faithfulness to the Mount Eliza Community. I feel so privileged to be Vicar of a Church that is still growing vibrant and strong after all these years.
The Church has gone through ups and downs and many changes over the years. Parishioners have come and gone yet the one constant has been God's continued faithfulness. I'm reminded of Psalm 100:5; “For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.” And Psalms 145:13; “Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does.” How blessed are we to have a great God who preserves His Church and sustains His people for His ministry! This Sunday we will look back at God's faithfulness in the past, celebrate what He is doing in our midst today which includes seeing 3 people confirmed and 2 people received into the Anglican Communion, and we will look forward to the future with Hope and Trust in God's continued faithfulness to us. God does not change. We can trust Him for our future. Bishop Paul and some of our local MPs along with many who have had some association with our Church in the past will be attending so I hope you and all of our congregation will be sure to welcome them fully. We will continue to celebrate after the Church service with Music and Lunch in the Hall. Huge thanks to all our wonderful people volunteering their time to make this such a special and memorable occasion. Blessings on your week. Rev. Tanya
