Hi everyone,
Let’s never forget!! Whenever we hear that phrase we often think about Remembrance Day which we will be acknowledging this weekend at Alderbrook Church.
However, here in Abbotsford we have witnessed the tragic (and senseless) event that took place on Monday in the loss of one of Abbotsford’s finest, police officer John Davidson, killed in the line of duty. Officer John Davidson worked in the departments’ Youth Squad and Traffic Sections; he also was a highschool liason, a part of the Cops for Cancer Ride and a part of ‘Alexa’s Team’, a program to reduce the number of drivers on the road affected by alcohol or drugs.
Let’s never forget!!
This Saturday we also remember the number of men and women who gave their lives in past wars that allow each of us to live in a free and secure country. May we remember the high cost of freedom in Canada because of their sacrifice as we remember those killed in the line of active duty. Let’s never forget!!
The Bible says that in Matthew 27:50 that when Jesus had cried out in a loud voice (“It is Finished”!) he gave up his spirit.
Let’s never forget!!
Take some time this weekend to “remember”….let’s never forget.
We look forward to seeing you at Alderbrook Church this Sunday!
Pastor Glenn
