This Month's Theme:

April brings us the beginning of newness of life. The air is refreshed, new plants are being birthed and Easter brings us the promise of life eternal. 
The Daisy is April's flower. It stands for innocence, purity, new beginnings and true love. 
From flowermeaning.com;
"The daisy’s message is, ultimately, one of hope and renewal. In sending daisies, the sender hopes the viewer will see the world as they once did as a child"
Let's allow this time of year to refresh our minds and strengthen our spirits. Let's not loose our childlike wonder at the stars. Let's continue to imagine, dream, hope, play and create.

 What we are praying for:

Pray that your neighbours experience refreshing this spring! Pray that they never forget the amazement at creation and the excitement of discovery they had in their youth and that every day brings them new joys. Pray that they experience new birth in every area of their lives.

God, we pray for the safety of all who participate in fundraisers throughout the GTA this month.

We pray that all groups reach their goals!

We pray in particular for the 2017 Walk for Muscular Dystrophy.

                                     

                                      

 

Scriptures:

Matthew 18: 2-6. 

Be willing as a child to learn and have simple faith.

1 Peter 2: 2-3.

Desire the simple truth and feed on it so you will grow as a child and become mature.

Romans 8: 11.

If the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead live in you, you shall be raised to life in the same way! 

Quotes:

"The real voyage of discovery consists of not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."
Marcel Proust

"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."
Anais Nin

"If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite."  
William Blake

 

 Don't lose your childlike wonder while looking at the stars!

Don't lose  your ability to dream and imagine great things!!

Happy Easter!

All the best always!

Thanks for praying with us.

 
 

New hope! New life!

Rise up! Spring's refreshing brings new strength!
