Reflections & Prayers

As you prepare for this morning’s service to begin, you are invited to
reflect on the following…

“Relying on God has to begin all over again every day
as if nothing had yet been done.”
~ C.S. Lewis

“When God gives you a new beginning
it starts with an ending.”
~ Unknown

Can you name some specific times you have felt alone?
How do you handle those moments?


Things to pray for this week…

We pray that young people preparing to go to camps and vacation
bible schools will learn about God’s love in a safe and fun
environment.

We pray that God protects families forced to flee from conflict and
persecution, seeking refuge across borders. We give thanks for those
who welcome the stranger through refugee sponsorship.

As Haiti continues to face political and social unrest, we pray for the
safety of our partners and the communities they serve.

We pray for Knox College and its new students who will be
invited to register for program studies in early July. We pray
for continued discernment of God’s call to equip and
prepare them for service.


Mission Moment

As the cost of living continues to rise across Saskatchewan, many individuals and families are finding it increasingly difficult to make ends meet. Saskatoon Native Circle Ministry (SNCM) recognizes that, in these challenging times, people need both physical and spiritual care. In addition to offering counseling and spiritual guidance, SNCM provides a safe space for those seeking comfort and direction. Through its drop-in centre, SNCM serves warm meals and offers a range of programs, including a mid-week worship service, an arts program, and both crisis and spiritual counseling. Rooted in First Nations traditions and gospel teachings, the ministry offers prayer, friendship, and hospitality to those in need. Over time, SNCM has flourished, not only in the number of people it serves but also in the depth of spiritual connections and the strength of the community bonds it fosters. SNCM receives support from Presbyterians Sharing.
