AY - April 9, 2011

We have our AY meeting every second Sabbath of the month.  Come join us for a fun time full of singing and learning.  It is a very relaxed atmosphere while still honoring our God.

 Some of the adults doing the actions to the song "Over the Sea"

 We have a multi-cultural congregation.  This member is from Granada.  He taught us a new song at AY.

 Kids always enjoy doing the actions to the song "I've Got Peace Like a River."

 Now the time for laughter begins...here we held a Bible text finding race.

Concentration can be a difficult task when you are racing against the clock and listening to the laughter coming from those watching!  It is easy for your brain to draw a blank.

Anyone is welcome to join us for our monthly AY meetings.  They are held at the church, the 2nd Sabbath of every month.  As you can see, it is a relaxed atmosphere and we dress casually.  If you would like more information, please call our church phone!  (780) 876-2006

(Also, check out the following post and see how our children did conducting most of our worship service last Sabbath!)

Children's Sabbath

For our church service on April 23, 2011, our children's division participated in the order of service.  This was in support of Christian Education.

New Look!

Spring is slowly but surely coming upon us, and nothing spruces things up like organization and a fresh look.  So, welcome to our newly organized website.  Besides the new spring look, there are new tabs at the top of this page to help you navigate this website more efficiently.  Feel free to have a look around and if you like what you see, you can leave a comment under each posting by clicking on "comments."

Potluck Schedule

The potluck schedule has been condensed and moved to the upper right hand side of the website.  If you look to the right of this post, you will see a link that says "Potluck Schedule."  This is where you will find the potluck schedule for each month from now on.  After viewing the potluck schedule, to return to the blog, simply click on "home," and you will be taken back to the main section of the blog.  Happy week, friends!

Our Church Family

 Children's Story is always an interactive and interesting time for our children.

We're missing about 12 members in this photo, but here we are!  Pastor Shawn is on the far righthand side.  We wanted to say "Hello!"  Looking forward to seeing you if you're thinking of coming by for a visit in the near future!

Remember the Happy Family Bible Seminar!

Sermons Are Back!

Fortunately, we were able to provide the sermon from April 2, 2011, AND the sermon from today, April 9, 2011.  They are both ready and available for download!  Enjoy, and God's Blessings!  Thank you for being patient!

Sermon for Downloading

If you are one who downloads our sermons every week, we wanted to explain the missing sermon from March 26, 2011.  Our trusty PA operator was out of town, and this did not get recorded as planned.   We are working on uploading the sermon from April 2, 2011, and hope to have it uploaded by the end of this week.  Our apologies to those who were looking forward to downloading those sermons.
