Pastoral Letters are weekly communications from our church pastor to the congregation. They are mostly original reflections on the Word of God in response to church events or current affairs, local or beyond, with the primary intent to exhort Christians to live rightly before God in the real world. Short bibliographies are sometimes featured towards the same end.
We pray that these writings will be a great blessing to you!

This gives the child the impression that the father is often busy working outside. For anything that the child needs, they would need...
Fathers play an important role in the family. We are reminded of the godly father who had wayward children. Examples are Eli and Aaron. Eli’s sons did terrible things which were wrong in God’s sight. Eli knew the evil that his sons did. He failed, however, to chastise or discipline...
