Prayer for our China Service Team

Our China Service Team has begun their service in an orphanage for the disabled for a few days.  It was encouraging to learn that the local staff of the orphanage recognised the team members who went there two years ago.  Would you pray with us for their service among the disabled orphans and local staff members?  They will be serving in the orphanage until July 27.

 

Please pray particular for Fay and John Gomes, two senior members from Montreal.  Fay fell on a pavement when they returned to the hotel from the orphanage.  She was taken to the hospital immediate, and the X-ray showed that her shoulder was dislocated and fractured.  She was advised that she should receive surgery as soon as possible.  Now, Fay and her husband John are on their way back to Montreal for the surgery and medical care.  Please pray for travel mercy as it will be a long hour flight.  Pray that God’s healing hands will be upon Fay.

2 baptised at Christ the Redeemer Toronto’s First Baptismal Service

Ordination in Calgary

Praise be to God for the growing presence of ANiC in Calgary.

On June 30, 2013, the Rev. Tom Chi-Tong Lo was ordained to the Diaconate (transitional).  Almost 150 people gathered to witness the ordination and to give their support to Tom and Irene.  It was a blessing to see the strong bonds of unity and fellowship among ANiC churches in Calgary as the people from Grace Anglican, Good Shepherd South Asian and Good Shepherd Cantonese celebrated this joyous occasion together.  Many ecumenical friends from Chinese churches and theological seminary in Calgary participated as well.  This was truly an encouragement to the growing ministry of the Good Shepherd Calgary church plant among the Chinese community.  May the Lord continue to bless the ministry of Rev. Tom Lo and the people in Calgary.
