Hey Church Family!Looking forward to being together this weekend! We will be continuing in our new series, Repairing Broken Relationships. We just started last week and don't worry, I’ll fill you in if you missed the first message.Here are three things that you will find out in the message this weekend.The next step to repairing Broken RelationshipsThe verse that I have prayed for more people than any other in the last 6 monthsWhat show I have been streaming obsessively the last 10 daysNumber 3 isn’t important but I need more people to talk about it with.We will sing together, enjoy spending time reconnecting with one another around all three services and of course, our kids will have a blast with their friends and teachers in Kid’s Ministry as well!Looking forward to gathering, see you soon!Jeremy Children DedicationThere is no manual for raising kids, but God has given us something far better - the Holy Spirit and community. Child Dedication is a way to acknowledge our dependence on the leadership and guidance of the Hold Spirit as we do our best to be an example and lead our children into a relationship with Jesus.Register at spac.ca/childdedication before May 8th to have your child dedicated during one of our May 27 or 28th services.GriefShareOften times, grief is so overwhelming we wonder if we'll ever find a way out. Know you don't need to grieve your loss alone. Find support, comfort, and community with others who have experienced a deep loss and discover how God can give you peace and hope through your grieving.GriefShare is a 13-week program, that began on April 28th, designed to help you face death of a loved one and move toward rebuilding your life. Each session is “self-contained,” so you do not have to attend in sequence and you can join anytime. You will find encouragement and help whenever you begin.Please register hereCost for the workbook is $20.00.Join us for a prayer time focused on the millions of people in the world who have been fasting this past month. Our Muslim brothers and sisters have often never meaningfully encountered the truth of who Jesus is. Come gather with us in person Friday, April 29th, starting at 7PM and let's intercede for God to be at work, drawing followers of Islam onto His pathway. Register here.Clothing ExchangeWe are excited to hold our Clothing Exchange event at the end of this month! This is a free event that we hold twice a year for our church and community. As you come across items you've outgrown or don't use anymore, put them aside to bring in. Drop off will start tonight, April 29 at 4 pm to April 30 at 11 am. The Clothing Exchange event is tomorrow, April 30th, opening at 10:30 am.Burundi ProjectIn 2008, Sherwood Park Alliance Church, along with Food for the Hungry (FH), partnered with the community of Kayanza Burundi as they began their 10 year journey out of poverty and into sustainability. In 2018, we rejoiced with the community as they accomplished their goals and began to thrive!To look back on our journey with the community of Kayanz and FH, please see this video. To learn more about FH Canada, please visit www.fhcanada.org Many of our Sherwood Park Alliance Church families were connected to this project either through child sponsorship, donations, prayer and opportunities to visit Burundi.Online Ministry EnhancementThe public weekend gathering is no longer the front door - the digital presence and online experience of church is overwhelmingly our first point of connection with the spiritually curious, and an essential method for initiating and fostering discipling relationships within our congregation. Streaming online is more than a broadcast - it's a platform with which to nurture meaningful connections with online viewers.The hybrid church is the new normal.To help support this new normal, we are launching an Online Ministry Enhancement campaign.
