Bulletin – July 18th
Lois and I are away with the Hobbema Camp Meetings and family today. We know you will be blessed by Pastor Phil’s message this morning as well as the outdoor concert at Borealis Park tonight.
We invite you to mark your calendar in red for next Sunday night when we shall give thanks and appreciation for Pastor Darren & Andrea. This will be Darren’s final week as Youth/YA Pastor at MGA. You will want to be here to express your love and appreciation for this great couple who have served our community for these past four years! Darren will preach his final message here on Sunday, August 1 (they just might let out the news of their next step!)
During these great summer days remember to “just walk across the street, campground, or room” and make the day special for a new friend!
