Conference is approaching quickly - will you join us?

In just a couple of months, we will gather in Calgary for our Biennial Conference. One of the important items on our agenda will be a proposed change to our Statement of Faith regarding the nature of God.

To help prepare our Fellowship for this conversation, you are invited to join a live, interactive webinar on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, at 11:00 AM (MT).

This session will be led by Nik Amodeo, along with members of the Faith, Life, and Theology Team. Together, we will walk through the proposed changes, offering clarity, context, and theological insight.

We hope to see you there!

This is a reminder that the deadline to book hotel rooms for the upcoming conference within our block is April 24! If you plan to stay at the Best Western or Sandman downtown and have not yet secured your room, we encourage you to do so quickly!

It might not feel like it, but spring is just around the corner! By this time of year, most of us are longing for sunshine and green grass and warmer temperatures. 

Something else that's just around the corner? Spring cleaning! It's time to shake off the dust of the winter months and put things to rights. This is important in the physical, but it's also important for our mental and emotional state. Chances are, we've all got something we need to bring to light and deal with, whether it be lethargy in our prayer time, a grudge we insist on holding, or even a simple unresolved argument with someone we care about.

Whatever it may be, we encourage you to let God come into the situation and bring it out of the dark. Holding onto these things never does anyone any good, and the relief when something finally gets dealt with is always worth it.

"Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." -Ephesians 4:31-32 ESV
