News for Sunday, July 20, 2025

This Sunday, we will continue our journey through the Book of Revelation. Get ready for a fascinating exploration as we receive our first glimpse into the throne room of God in Chapters four and five.

Our preaching series on Revelation will then pause for one week, resuming in two weeks' time. Next Sunday, I will be preaching at Trinity Presbyterian Church in Victoria. This marks my final Sunday as their interim moderator, as I will be taking on the interim moderator position at St. Andrew's Victoria at the beginning of August.

We look forward to welcoming the Reverend Mitch Coggan as our guest preacher here at Saanich Peninsula Presbyterian Church next Sunday. Many of you will remember Mitch, who retired in February from his interim minister role at St. Andrew's. He is, of course, well known to us, having led the visitation committee to Saanich Peninsula Presbyterian Church last year. Although retired, Mitch will be taking over as interim moderator for Trinity.

You might notice a lot of "interims" within our Presbytery these days! This is an important part of our church's ministry. When a congregation finds itself without a minister for any reason, it remains under the care of the Presbytery. For this reason, the court assigns one of our ministers to provide care for that congregation during its time of vacancy. It is a hallmark of our denomination that we care for and take responsibility for one another.
