The COVID-19 pandemic has hurled most into a new reality sacrificing travel, civil liberties and compelling self-isolation and social distancing. The medical community and all essential workers have given unselfishly combating the virus. Recently the cyclone helicopter accident off Greece and the RCMP confronting the massacre of innocent victims at Portapique and surrounding communities remind us of the dedication, sacrifice and service of our military and RCMP men and women. They are all heroes and we are eternally grateful. We are not alone. Jesus sacrificed his life that we may live. Accept him into your heart. Jesus, the way to the father, the truth and the life, to the glory of God.

Amen.
