Compassion Partners

Our Compassion Partners

We partner with many local organizations in various ways, from prayer to participation to financial support. Our goal is always to engage in respectful and compassionate collaboration to address and meet the needs of those in our communities. 

The Compassion Fund exists to serve those both inside and outside our church community who are in financial need. There is a process to applying for this funding and parameters exist on the types of needs this fund can cover. 
Leadership of this fund includes ensuring the care and control of the funds used across the various initiatives. A large portion of this fund is used on a weekly basis with walk-in individuals and families seeking help with bill payments and gift cards for meals. However, many of the Outreach initiatives are also funded from the Compassion Fund which accounts for a large portion of the Outreach ministry at SPAC.

Our involvement with the Strathcona County Ministerial has led to new connections with Family and Community Services here in Sherwood Park. It has been a great way to have their staff become aware of the assistance we can provide both financially and relationally through various programs at Sherwood Park Alliance. These partnerships allow us to direct a significant portion of funds from the Compassion Fund towards a ministry which meets people in seasons of transition before they turn into seasons of long-term crisis due to lack of safe and affordable housing.
