Going Through the Motions

November 4, 2021

Hello Church Family—Before I give you a sneak peak into what we will be diving into this weekend at the services, I wanted to give you a quick update on the Clothing Exchanges that took place at both Sherwood Park Alliance and Millbourne over the past two weekends. 

Between these two events over 300 people came through the doors and around 100 volunteers helped out. It was great to be able to run this event again, since the last time we were able to was in the fall of 2019.

Thank you to everyone who participated!

I’m looking forward to being together this weekend as we continue in our Malachi Series! In our time together we are going to look at God’s challenge to his people regarding worship. For some people worship is an incredible experience and deeply meaningful. For others, worship is confusing, intimidating and, honestly, a little weird. We’re going to take a look at what is at the heart of Christian Worship. Can’t wait to see you!

Senior Associate Pastor

Beginning on Sunday, November 28th, we will move back to having two services on a Sunday morning one at 9:00 am and the other at 11:00 am. Saturday will stay the same with one service at 7:00 pm.

Board Changes

When Kent Maddigan accepted the role of Kids Pastor, here at Sherwood Park Alliance, he stepped off the Elder Board leaving a vacancy. Kyla Loewan has now been appointed to fulfill the rest of Kent's term, please pray for Kyla as she steps into this role.

In addition, Kent also held the office of Vice Chair, this position has filled by Al Schuld for the remainder of this year. If you wish to communicate with the Board for any reason, you may reach them at [email protected].

When we re-orient our lives around living and loving like Jesus, we are made new. Baptism is a celebration of this commitment and a time to share how God is transforming us. Baptism is this picture of how the gospel changes lives. It’s a reminder of that moment or season where you said ‘yes’ to God – His love, His forgiveness, His purpose for your life.

Baptism Prep Classes will be held in person in the Fireside Room after each service on November 6/7. Registration not required.

It's that time of year again! Time to pick up your Operation Christmas Child boxes. Boxes will be available in the Atrium after each service this weekend.

Collection weekend will be November 13/14 only.
