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 SUNDAY
Trinity Sunday
The Collect
ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who hast given unto us thy servants grace, by the confession of a true faith, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of the Divine Majesty to worship the Unity; We beseech thee that thou wouldest keep us stedfast in this faith, and evermore defend us from all adversities, who livest and reignest, one God, world without end. Amen
The Text for This Week's Sermon
The Gospel. St. John iii. 1
THERE was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: the same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: that whoso ever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.






































































The Sermon for This Week
At one point during a football game, the coach called one of his 7-year-old players aside and asked, “Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is? The little boy nodded in the affirmative.
“Do you understand that what matters is not whether we win or lose, but how we play together as a team?” The little boy nodded yes.
“So,” the coach continued, “I’m sure you understand, that when a penalty is called, you shouldn’t argue, curse, attack the referee, or call him bad names?” Again the little boy nodded.
He continued, “And when I call you off the field so that another boy gets a chance to play, it’s not good sportsmanship to call your coach a bad name either, is it?” Again the little boy nodded.
“Good,” said the coach. “Now please go over there and explain all that to your mother.”
We all need things explained at times and as Christians on Trinity Sunday need to try to understand the importance of the doctrine of the Holy Trinity.
John 3: “If I have told you earthly things, and you believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?”
In today's Gospel lesson we have Jesus talking with a respected member of the Jewish council who has a hard time understanding what our Lord was telling him.
People often have a hard time understanding the “big picture” and we are often not able to understand “heavenly things”.
This doctrine of the Holy Trinity is not something recently invented by any church. It comes to us right from the Bible.
Our Lord told His disciples to “Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost”.
Notice He said name and not names.
In the Triune God we have three distinct persons in one divine being.
God the Father is the creator of all things and our preserver.
Our Heavenly Father cares for each of us. Through sin however, man separated himself from God and nothing man by himself could do could bring man to the level of righteousness which God demands for that separation to end.
God the Son Jesus Christ came in the flesh to be that perfect sacrifice that would reconcile man to God.
Through His death on the cross “the Lamb of God” took mankind's sin away. “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness even so must the Son of Man be lifted up ; that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.”
God the Holy Ghost is that comforter that Christ promised to his disciples.
The Holy Spirit's work is mysterious to us, but we know that the Third Person of the Holy Trinity richly blesses the Church and its members.
Beginning with our baptism, when we are “born again”, the Holy Ghost assists Christians in ways we may not be fully aware of now, but helps us to enter the Kingdom of Heaven where we then will.
We Christians then worship the Holy Trinity. God the Father the creator and preserver, God the Son our Savior, and God the Holy Ghost the life giving Spirit.
This doctrine is a glorious revelation of the true and living God. Our God who helps us in our life here on earth and assures us of the unending joys of heaven with Him.
The Lord be with you
Let us pray
O Lord God Almighty, Eternal, Immortal, Invisible,the mysteries of whose being are unsearchable: Accept, we beseech thee, our praises for the revelation which thou hast made of thyself, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, three Persons, and one God; and mercifully grant, that ever holding fast this faith, we may magnify thy glorious Name; who livest and reignest, one God, world without end. Amen
