AOC Sunday Report


Happy First Sunday after Christmas, which is also the remembrance of the Holy Innocents this year, a not so happy day.  Read the report RIGHT HERE and learn  why.

Sorry for the late report.  I made the prayer list twice, like yesterday, one good, one not.

There are great sermons from Bishop Roy and Rev Bryan and one from me.

Like always, there are a number of people on the prayer list. Please take the time to pray for at least a few of them.  There is a great week and year ahead, you won't find it without the Holy Ghost. You might take time to think about that while you're at it.  Like always, there are a number of people on the prayer list. Please take the time to pray for at least a few of them.

A Tale of the Magi, 18 December 2019 Anno Domini

N OW  when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men [1]   (Greek  μάγοι , mágoi)  from the east to Jerusalem,  2   Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.  3   When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.  4   And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.  5   And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,  6   And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.  7   Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time...

  A ND  when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.  24  And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.  25  And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.  26  And he saith unto them , Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith ? Then he arose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.  27  But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!  (M atthew 8:23-27 )   Please view this presentation of the below hymn by Gracias Choir:    https://youtu.be/WlVqAPT9YR4?si=ZDZ5bRJOXApwSVs5               This powerful and moving hymn is the composition of Mary E.

The Costly Robe – 30 March 2023, Anno Domini

  U NTO  Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them .   (Genesis 3:21)               In his introduction to my devotion yesterday, Rev Hap Arnold alluded in reference to the skins covering Adam and Eve after their Fall in Eden, as to the import thereof. He did so to evoke a deeper thought in the meaning it clearly represents symbolically. In the above text, God has just provided a first glimpse of his plan of salvation to Eve:   And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel .  (Genesis 3:15)  The Seed to which God makes reference is His only Begotten Son thousands of years hence. So the covering of the nakedness of Adam and Eve was supplied by the first death on earth – that of an innocent animal (whom God loved) such as a lamb.       ...
