November Prayers

 






What we are praying for this month:

Let us remember to
pray for our service men and women who are protecting our country, those fighting or working to maintain peace throughout the world 
and the families of our fallen soldiers.
Let us remember to pray for our vets that they get the respect and help they need.



Let us remember to pray
for those in the LGBTQI Community who are still fighting for our rights, our protection and our benefits as equal human beings here in Canada and all over the world. 
Let us remember to pray for our service men and women who are gay that  they are treated fairly and respectfully as all service members should be.

The theme this month is to remember:

Let's remember to honour and pray for those who have fought for our freedom and those still fighting to maintain that and all those in authority positions in government, military and all levels of society.

Remember, God is real and there for everyone. We should love everyone, but that is only possible with God's help. With God's help we can be all that we are intended to be and do the things we are called to do.


 Scriptures and meditations:

Romans 13: 1, 7, 1 Peter 2: 17.  Respect and honour those in government and all whom it is due.

John 15: 13, Psalm 116: 15. There is a great calling on those who choose to lay down their lives for the freedom of others and that calling affects greatly their families too. Remember that police, doctors, nurses, religious leaders, social justice and humanitarian aid workers, many in our society are included in these prayers.

Thank you all for joining with us in this month's prayers!

Thanksgiving in downtown Toronto!

 
Thanksgiving at Allen Gardens. The flock is shining nicely in the sun while peaking at the CN Tower.                                                   















Colour starting to show in the trees downtown.













Flowers reflecting the sun as they smile at passers by!










Rich Autumn colours all around in the green houses!









                                                                                                                                                                                                  Sunshine glowing through the cooling glass in  the late afternoon.
