MINISTER’S NOTE                             2 AUGUST 2026

Please join me as we listen together to what Christ
says to the Church in His letter to the church in Laodicea.
He speaks in love to a congregation that
had become self-sufficient and had slowly lost sight
of the One they needed most. Christ does not
shame the church; He calls her back into relationship:
“Here I am! I stand at the door and
knock.” (Revelation 3: 20). This invitation is echoed
in John 15, where Jesus reminds His disciples, “Abide
in me… apart from me you can do nothing.” Life is
not sustained by our own strength, experience, or
achievements. It flourishes as we remain connected
to Christ, the true Vine.

As we gather for worship this Sunday, may we
come with open hearts, willing to hear Christ’s voice
and to welcome Him afresh into every part of our
lives. Let us lay aside the illusion of self-sufficiency
and rediscover the joy of depending on Him each
day. My prayer is that, together, we may grow into
a church that draws its life, strength, and witness
from Christ alone. As we abide in Him, may His life
be seen in us, bringing hope, grace, and love to
our community and to the world.

Blessings,
Vuyelwa.
