Welcome to Saints Andrew & Matthias
We are located at 2415 McCann Road in the little village of Irving Michigan. In our historic (1878) brick building we use the historic King James Bible at all our services. We are traditional old fashioned Christians , using the old fashioned types of services from the 1928 Book of Common Prayer. We feel it is our duty as Christians in the Church to try, with the Holy Spirit's guidance, to bring others to Christ and thereby change the world, and not to instead let the world change the Church.
Please join us for worship this week to see if you think we are the church that you have been looking for.

This Week's Collect & Sermon Text
TRINITY IX
The Ninth Sunday after Trinity
​
The Collect
GRANT to us, Lord, we beseech thee, the spirit to think and do always such things as are right; that we, who cannot do any thing that is good without thee, may by thee be enabled to live according to thy will; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
The Text for This Week's Sermon
The Epistle. 1 Cor. x. 1
BRETHREN I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; and did all eat the same spiritual meat; and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is writ ten, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. Where fore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.



















































































The Sermon for This Week
Why do scuba divers fall backwards into the water?
Because if they fell forwards they’d still be in the boat.
We are warned today by Saint Paul in his Epistle about Christians falling.
I Cor. 10:12 “Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth, take heed lest he fall.”
He warns us that although we as Christians are called to a wonderful heritage it is possible for us still to be lost if we do not persevere in our faith.
Christians need to remember if we follow the world instead of God's will, we can fall.
His will for us is to follow His commandments. In those commandments we learn our duty to God and our duty to others.
Our duty to God is to believe in Him, to fear Him, and to love Him with all our heart, our mind, and our soul.
We are to worship Him and give Him thanks.
We are to trust in Him and to call upon Him.
We are to honor His Holy name and His Word.
We are to serve Him all the days of our life.
Our duty to others is to love them as we do ourselves.
We are to love, honor, and help our parents.
We are to submit ourselves to those in authority over us.
We are to not hurt others by word or deed.
Our dealings with others should be true and just.
We are not to steal from or lie to others.
We are to avoid evil speaking of and having a hatred of others.
We are to keep our bodies in temperance, soberness, and chastity.
We are not to covet the things of others, but instead labor to do our share of the needed work.
Temptations surround us to fall away from doing our duty as Christians.
The world is constantly telling Christians that it's not necessary to follow God's commandments.
That it's not really the “smart” thing to do.
It was that way when Saint Paul wrote his Epistle, and it is that way today as well.
If we are to be successful then in our faith, we must be constant in our attendance on God's Word.
Our Lord tells us that “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, and I give them eternal life”.
We hear His voice in the Scripture and are joined to Him in the Sacraments.
In prayer we can ask for His strong arm to uphold us and (frail creatures that we are), to keep us from falling.
​
So that we at the last, through Christ's sacrifice on the cross for us, will have the inheritance of heaven.

O LORD God of Hosts, stretch forth, we pray thee, thine almighty arm to strengthen and protect the Armed Forces of our country and those of our allies; Support them in the day of battle, and in the time of peace keep them safe from all evil; endue them with courage and loyalty; and grant that in all things they may serve without reproach; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
