Update from Annie Alberi

Dear Parishioners,

Praise be to the Lord and Father of

our Lord Jesus Christ, who has

blessed us in the heavenly realms

with every spiritual blessing in

Christ. Eph. 1:2. I cannot say any

words to describe how blessed I am

to be in this body of believers except

through Paul. Thanks be to God. I

cannot write to everyone who visited

and sent cards and flowers and I

wanted you all to know how appre-

ciative that I am. I am doing very

well after my ordeal in February, a

miracle. It has been so obvious that

you have been praying for my recov-

ery and I have felt it. I pray for this

church and all in it. May the Lord

bless you all and visit me at Atlantic

Shores, Harborway, any time. I am

in room 131. Try to call first.

Hospice Ministry

Five years ago, Father Buchanan

and the Women of Galilee supported

the establishment of a Hospice Min-

istry at Galilee. Since that time, the

members of this group have cut and

sewn hospital gowns and bibs to be

distributed to patients by the Sentara

Hospice Volunteer Group.

Financial donations for this ministry

have been generously provided by

you, members of the Galilee family.

It has become increasingly difficult

to purchase materials appropriate for

this project. At this time, several

members of our group are not able to

participate because of personal and/

or family physical needs.

I have spoken with Father Buchanan

and the WOG Board members and

we have agreed to end this ministry

on April 13, 2015.

Thank you for your support of this

ministry. Many lives have been

touched by your generous support.

Sincerely,

Kay Scarborough

Slumdog Evangelist! Galilee Welcomes

the Rev. Kumar Swamy

Sunday, April 19th 6 pm

He was born an outcaste. Today

Kumar Swamy is a prominent nation-

al leader in India

and the general

secretary for over

3,500 churches.

Rev. Swamy will

share the amaz-

ing story of his

own rise out of

untouchability.

How in his youth

he was called by his peers a “dirty

Dalit dog” but today speaks before

crowds numbering as high as

100,000. He will share personal de-

tails about the persecuted church and

the phenomenal church-growth

movement among India’s nearly 300

million untouchables. He will tell

how he himself has been beaten for

the sake of the gospel and how today

the good news of Jesus is transform-

ing whole communities.

Rev. Swamy is an international

spokesman on the issues of freedom

of religion and human rights among

societies oppressed and marginalized.

Early in his ministry life he help pio-

neer the use of Dayspring Interna-

tional’s life-of-Christ movie Dayasa-

gar (meaning “Oceans of Mercy”).

Kumar has personally presented this

powerful evangelistic, church-

planting film to over 250,000 villag-

ers.

For over ten years Galilee Church

has partnered with Dayspring Inter-

national and Kumar Swamy in bring-

ing the gospel to millions who have

not heard it even once. Come hear his

inspiring message and vision for

training 1000 more “slumdog evan-

gelists” in 2015. Sunday night, April

19th, 6pm in St Andrew’s Chapel.

Generational Healing Service With Holy Eucharist Teaching led by Fr. Nigel Mumford

April 11, 2015

9:30am – 11:00am

Patterns of physical, emotional or spiritual sickness can

descend upon individuals and families from generation

to generation, i.e. diabetes, cancer.

The sins of the fathers travel down the generations to

affect the present time, but blessings also travel down

the family lines. Jesus’ healing power can touch our

families with blessing as well as free us from the effects

of sin.
