It is a challenge sometimes to be part of a small family, but if we are part of a Church family with many unique people. That is a bigger challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It takes commitment and that can be costly. We all make commitments, to our relationships, to our work, to our Children, but do we honour our commitment. Many say Yes but mean NO. Jesus teaches us to be honest and for our Yes to be Yes and our NO to be No Our Church rededication service 3 pm on Sunday 28th May. Do come and be part of this occasion. I understand some were part of our Church community in the past, now is a good time to come back if you are not currently engaging in a Church. Exploring together is best.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"327\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/canacom.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/meeting.jpg?resize=640%2C327&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-327\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/canacom.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/meeting.jpg?w=687&amp;ssl=1 687w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/canacom.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/meeting.jpg?resize=300%2C153&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/canacom.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/meeting.jpg?resize=600%2C307&amp;ssl=1 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thy Kingdom Come pray 10 days<\/strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>From 18<sup>th<\/sup> \u2013 28<sup>th<\/sup> May.
