Welcome to St. Andrew's! We would love to have you join us this Sunday. In addition to attending in person, you can stream the service live HERE on Facebook or HERE on our website.
Welcome to today's worship leaders, Linda, Curtis, and Anika. Our elder is Kathy, and our reader is Lea.
A special welcome to our guest preacher, Christine Lee. Christine grew up a pastor’s kid in a new Korean church plant in Windsor, Ontario. The love of history led her to Middle Eastern studies at UBC. While in Vancouver, she explored theology at Regent College, but was persuaded to follow immigrant dreams and studied law at Queen’s University instead. Life’s path led her to an administrative role at TRU, and to Kamloops, where she joyfully lives with her Québécois spouse, Mathieu, teen Theo, mom Jane and cat Sammy Davis Jr Jr.
Order of Service
Welcome
Call to Worship (Psalm 27 & 33, Isaiah 40)
Even when God seems hidden from us, we gather in faith,
trusting that the Lord remains steadfast and faithful.
Our souls wait for the Lord; he is our help and our shield.
Though the way before us may be uncertain,
we remember God's faithfulness in every generation and trust in the hope of his promises.
We believe that we shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
When our strength is spent, and the journey is difficult,
we remember the promise that those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.
They shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage.
In every season, God is with us and worthy of our trust.
We place our hope in the Lord, whose steadfast love endures forever.
Let us worship God together.
