Welcome to St. John's Anglican Church Tillsonburg!
Hello and welcome!
We invite you to join us in person in worship, fellowship, and service. In our expression of Christianity, all are welcome. As believers, we make faith matter in our lives. Prayerfully, our parish family is walking together to see where God is leading us and inviting us to journey with Him. We look forward to meeting you.
Risen, ascended Lord, as we rejoice at your triumph, fill your Church on earth with power and compassion, that all who are estranged by sin may find forgiveness and know your peace, to the glory of God the Father. Amen.
The Seventh Sunday of Easter (The Sunday after Ascension Day)
As we gather to mark Victoria Day, we pause to offer our gratitude for the many blessings of peace, freedom, and community that we enjoy in this nation of Canada.
We thank You for the change of seasons, for the new life of this spring, and for the opportunity to rest and enjoy the beauty of our land, from coast to coast to coast. We remember the history that has shaped us, and we ask for wisdom to honor what is good while seeking justice and reconciliation in our communities.
Creator, we pray for unity across our diverse nation. Strengthen the bonds between provinces, communities, neighbours, families, and friends. May this holiday remind us of the strength we find in supporting one another.
We pray for our leaders, that they may act with compassion and integrity, guiding us toward a future of prosperity, inclusivity, and equality.
Protect those who serve to keep us safe, and extend Your comfort to those who are lonely, weary, or in need of rest.
May this Victoria Day be a time of joyful renewal, safety, unity, and gratitude.
In the precious name of Jesus the Christ, Your son, we pray. Amen.
