Last week, the ACOP 2026 Biennial Conference was hosted by the Calgary Full Gospel Church.  The theme of the conference was Stirred Up! Based on II Peter 1:13 “I think it right, as long as I am in the body, to stir you up by way of a reminder.”

A number of significant decisions were made by the delegates... 

At conference the delegates elected Rev. Chris Westby as the next President of ACOP. A transition process will begin in the fall from the current president,
Rev. Wes Mills.  Please pray for Chris and Sherri and their family as they transition to this new role.

A Celebration of Life will be held for Pastor Irvin Ellis on June 19th at 1:00 pm at Revive City Church, 7200 Cariboo Road, Burnaby, BC.

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.-2 Corinthians 4:17-18

As I reflect upon the conference last week, I am deeply grateful for the family that is the ACOP Fellowship. Time and time again, I would look around the church foyer and see people greeting one another, praying for each other, and even crying together. Each moment embodies what it truly means to be unified as the body of Christ. 

As we have now spread back out across Canada and beyond, let us not leave the spirit of unity for times when we are gathered, but let us seek out one another. Take time today to reach out to someone in the Fellowship and send them an encouraging note, or take time to earnestly ask them how they are doing and pray together. 

We are better together, we are stronger together, we are more effective together; so let us be intentional with one another, just as Christ is with us.

"And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. - Hebrews 10:24-25 ESV
