Written by Aleks Pinter, Senior Minister
Greetings and welcome to St Matthew's. Thank you for taking the time to read this brief introduction to our church.
St Matthew's is an evangelical Anglican church seeking to serve all ages in our parish of Windsor and beyond. Infact people from all over the Hawkesbury and even further afield call St Matthew's home.
We gather each Sunday to worship God together and we offer a variety of church services from the traditional to the contemporary to enable us to do that. You are warmly invited to attend a service, no matter where you are on your spiritual journey. At St Matthew's you will find people from all walks of life who simply want to know Jesus better.
At St Matthew's we believe the Bible reveals who Jesus is and so we provide Bible based teaching to help us understand what it means to be a Christian, to grow in faith and to inspire us to live better lives. We also offer fellowship and friendship and the opportunity to be part of a caring church, serving and supporting each other and the wider community.
You are always welcome to visit us at a service or give us a call. If you are looking for a new church, we hope you will find St Matthew's to be a place you can call home.
Yours in Christ's service
Aleks Pinter
Senior Minister
Boudhanath Stupa (Kathmandu, Nepal) is home to one of the largest Buddhist stupas in the world, built during the 5th century AD.
For centuries, Boudhanath has been an important place of pilgrimage and meditation for Tibetan Buddhists & local Nepalis. It is located on what was a major trade route between Nepal & Tibet. Many traveling merchants used it as a resting place. It is also a popular tourist site. In 1979, Boudha became a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Along the trail up the mountain at the Fushimi Inari Shrine were some smaller shrines. Here two people are offering prayers. I haven't been able to find out if these are Shinto priests or not, but their dress suggests a special role.
Inari is the Japanese kami of foxes, of fertility, rice, tea and Sake, of agriculture and industry, of general prosperity and worldly success, and one of the principal kami of Shinto.

Thousands of Mexicans make the pilgrimage to the Basilica of Guadalupe each year on or before December 12th. Some pilgrims crawl on their knees for miles as they approach the Basilica before praying to the Virgin of Guadalupe. In the North of Mexico City.

When through the old oak forest I am gone,
Let me not wander in a barren dream,
But when I am consumed in the fire,
Give me new Phoenix wings to fly at my desire.

Ishmaelites Prayers - Tribute by Daniel Arrhakis (2023)
At least two people have died after a man wielding a knife attacked attendees at an Islamic religious centre in Lisbon. A third victim, reportedly an employee of the Ismaeli Centre, required treatment in hospital after being stabbed in the neck.
My deepest feelings and prayers for the victims of this barbaric attack to the Ishmaelite Centre in Lisbon, Portugal.
More than ever, the World needs Peace, Tolerance and Sharing in a new dawn that brings Light back to the darkness that has settled in our times...

Meus mais profundos sentimentos e orações pelas vítimas deste bárbaro ataque ao Centro Ismaeli em Lisboa, Portugal.
Mais do que nunca, o Mundo precisa de Paz, Tolerância e Partilha num novo amanhecer que traga Luz de volta à escuridão que se instalou nos nossos tempos...

Prayers For Myanmar 2023 Tribute by Daniel Arrhakis (2023)
မြန်မာနိုင်ငံအတွက် ဆုတောင်းများ
My prayers and tribute to all the victims and their families of the Military Coup in Myanmar that continues to claim innocent victims through barbaric attacks on a defenseless population!
A military junta's attack on the Pa Zi Gyi in northern Myanmar killed 186 villagers, of which 40 were under 18, according to the National Unity Government of Myanmar (NUG). CNN's Anna Coren spoke to surviving villagers recounting the horror they experienced.

It is time for the international community to unite to denounce the barbarism that the people of Myanmar have suffered since the coup d'état in Myanmar that began on the morning of 1 February 2021, when democratically elected members of the country's ruling party, the National League for Democracy (NLD), were deposed by the Tatmadaw—Myanmar's military—which then vested power in a military junta and power had been transferred to Commander-in-Chief of Defense Services Min Aung Hlaing.
The President of Myanmar Win Myint and State Counsellor of Myanmar San Suu Kyi were deposed and detained since then.

Hard to believe we were just there 5 weeks ago and they are facing one of the worst hurricanes ever. Some locals on St Maarten were talking about hurricane season. My thoughts and prayers are with all those in her path.

I shot it at the festival of CHHATH.
Chhath Puja is a very joyous and colorful festival. Chhath Puja is the holiest Hindu festival of people in northern India. Mostly the Chhath Puja is being observed in Bihar and Jharkhand(INDIA) and the festival comprises rituals for four days. The Chhath Puja begins a week after Diwali. The word Chat denotes the number six in Hindi. The Chhath Puja begins on the sixth day of the Kartik, a holy month as per Hindu calendar. Some people spell Chath Puja as Chat Puja, Chatt Puja, Chhath festival, etc
Chhath Puja is dedicated to worship the Sun God. The Chhath Puja is known as ‘SuryaShashti’. People observe Chhath Puja to thank the Sun for bestowing the bounties of life on earth, as also for fulfilling particular wishes. People believe that by observing the Chhath Puja they can fulfill their desires. The Chhath Puja has been observed since long time in India. On Chhath Puja day, all the people dress up in their best and new clothes are a must. Folk songs are sung both at home and on the riverbank. Millions of people take dip in the holy water of river Ganges, and other rivers.

Tso Moriri’s smaller version, Tso Kyogar, is a couple of hours before the actual Tso Moriri lake begins. After crossing Tso Kyogar, a steep incline leads to a huge plateau. This becomes your new reference plane.
For most part of the drive to Tso Moriri you are negotiating ups and downs through the mountains. Suddenly you hit this vast flatland. It’s hard to imagine you are at a height of 4500m.
As the car approaches this plateau, we saw this long line of flags bouncing in the air. Its strung at two hilltops traversing the whole width of the plateau.
How did the flags get there? Your guess would be as good as ours!

The Western Wall, also known as the Wailing Wall, is a 187-foot-high section of the ancient wall of Herod’s Temple, the second temple built on that spot. The Wailing Wall is on the western side of the Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem. Herod the Great constructed the oldest layers of the wall between 20 B.C and 19 B.C. as the second Jewish temple was being built. The wall extends for 1600 feet, but houses built against it obscure most of its length. Today the exposed portion of the Wailing Wall faces a large plaza in the Jewish Quarter, which has been a venue for pilgrimage and prayer for Jews since the 16th century.
At least 17 layers of the wall are below the street level, but the massive lower stones, called ashlars, of the visible portion date to the time of Herod. These colossal limestone stones, each weighing between one to eight tons, were crafted with masterly precision so that they fit perfectly against each other without mortar. Some of the joints, however, have eroded, and orthodox Jews fill many of the chinks in the lower blocks with written prayers. The wall takes it name from the fact that, on a daily basis, many Jews gather at the wall to pray, chanting and swaying before the wall. They conduct daily and Sabbath prayers and celebrate Bar and Bat Mitzvah.
**So many prayers where the mortar once was. Such an impressive sight.**
I couldn't decide which version I liked best so I have posted both. Black and white version here: Urban Prayer.
