The 21st of June 2020 marked the first Lord's Day that we had been able to meet together as a church since March. In the will of the Lord the Isle of Man was affected by the Coronavirus pandemic and it seemed providential for us to refrain from meeting. In preparation for the return CC Clean had been in and left the premises sparkling. Friends young and old met up once more. We sang some great hymns and the word was preached. Glory be to God Almighty!

We are thankful unto God that our brother Cecil Andrews from Take Heed Ministries was with us during our pastor's annual summer holiday.
We have enjoyed many visits from our brother over the past few years. This visit he covered some very important subjects. Firstly from Mark chapter one we were refreshed with two messages on the person and ministry of Christ. On Lord's Day evenings, under the title "Habbakkuk For Today," our brother took us through Habakkuk. On the Wednesday evenings he spoke on the Reformation. Luther took his stand 500 years ago and there is a continuing need for the great truths of justification by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone as revealed in Scripture alone. We were taken from the castle door in 1517 to Peel Cathedral in 2017.
In view of the request of the Chief Minister to avoid all public gatherings, we will not be holding any church meetings or groups for the time being. As we wait to see what the effects of Coronavirus (Covid-19) will be in the Isle of Man, we know that God is sovereign. Our lives are by his grace. As Christians, we are in Christ, living stones built up as a spiritual house, an holy priesthood. Our regular meetings together are important, let us pray that public worship may resume soon. Let us daily remember that we are witnesses to those around us of Christ, and intercessors for all men to God. As our trust is in Christ Jesus, we shall not be confounded. By his grace may we be enabled to show forth his praise at this time.
We hope it will not be long before normal meetings can resume.

We are thankful unto God that our brother Cecil Andrews from Take Heed Ministries is with us during our pastor's annual summer holiday.
It is planned that Cecil will speak at our meetings whilst Glenn is away. We have enjoyed many visits from our brother over the past few years. This year on the Wednesday evenings he hopes to speak on the Reformation. This October marks the 500th anniversary of Luther's 95 theses.
