COME SHARE THE LOVE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
You Are Invited
I am Bishop Todd Bell and along with the community of Saint Matthias, I wish to welcome you and share the love of our Lord Jesus Christ with all we come in contact with. Spreading the Good News of salvation and anxiously awaiting His coming in glory!
The Community of Saint Matthias is committed to an inclusive approach, void of barriers between God and His people. Christ ministered to those in need, rather than those who were in “good standing” under the “law”. Christ more often than not was found in the company of the “untouchables”, healing the sick, giving sight to the blind and ministering to forbidden people such as the Samaritan woman.
The Church must minister to people through love and kindness; not fear and heavy handedness. We seek to do this through equality, justice and truth. This is done through strengthening with an understanding of God’s Holy Scriptures, renewal within the Holy Eucharist and an openness to the Holy Spirit as He speaks to and through His people.

"The New Creation"![]()
![]()
Sometimes we become consumed in what we see and not what we have. In Christ we have become a new creation, and yet very often we look in the mirror and see something that looks a lot like our old selves. Today's Psalm speaks about the Lord rebuilding Zion and it appearing in all of His glory. We too have been rebuilt (spiritually) and are called to display the glory of the Lord. Look not at what the mirror says, but glory in your new life in Him. Proclaim His goodness to all that you meet and live as His new creation.![]()

"God's Ways Are True"![]()
![]()
Truth seems to be the somewhat elusive element of life. We are always seeking the truth. I once heard it said that there are only a select number of truths, and what is truth has always been and will always be the truth. God has given us His truths through the statutes that He has given to His people from the beginning. Adam and Eve were shown the truth, Abraham was shown the truth, Moses and Elijah were shown the truth....through the statutes of the Lord. In today's Psalm, we hear, "Lord, teach me your statutes". The time is now for us to accept, acknowledge, and follow the truth that God has given us in His statutes.![]()

"Food For Our Bellies and Food For Our Souls"![]()
![]()
Jesus proclaimed, "I am the bread of life". He was not referencing food for our bodies, and yet the people could not understand food for their souls. The Lord will supply all our needs according to His riches and glory, and this specifically refers to our day-to-day needs. The real food offered by the Lord will carry us to eternal life. May we come to seek food for our souls as much as we have need for the food in our bellies.![]()
