ACC @CBC November 8, 2015

CASA-DE-LUZThis is going to be an awesome Sunday at ACC….you don’t want to miss it.

We are so excited to have the TWU (Trinity Western University) worship team back with us again at Alderbrook Church. If you remember, the team from Trinity U came back in September and the place rocked!
This is a group of young students that are pretty passionate about music and leading people into the presence of God.
Come anticipating great things this Sunday as we come together and spend time together.

This Sunday is also our Mexico Missions Team luncheon (its a fundraiser for our outreach in Casa De Luz). This February we will be sending 25 people from Alderbrook down to Mexico to share and spread the love of Jesus in many tangible and practical ways. You will get to meet the team, pray for the team and hear all about what God has been doing through the ACC teams that have been going to Casa De Luz over the past three years. We have a number of teenagers and young people travelling on this trip…isn’t that exciting?!!

It is also a real privilege to introduce our guest speaker this Sunday…whose not really a guest…so we will call him our ‘special speaker’. Chris Ryan will be sharing this Sunday in church and I know that you will not want to miss this Sunday, even if its only to hear the message. For those of you that don’t know, Chris lost his beloved wife Heather this past fall after her long and difficult struggle with cancer. There was (and continues)  to be incredible support for Chris (and his two step-daughters) from the church, and so Chris wants to share his story and his journey with ACC. As I watched Chris and the girls walk through this painful experience as his pastor and friend, I can honestly say that I was humbled by the way that Chris leaned on God and also his church here at Alderbrook. Make sure that you come out this Sunday…and why not bring a family member or friend to church to hear Chris’ story.

See you on Sunday,

Pastor Glenn and Cheryl

Ps There will also be a Silent Auction after church, with some really neat stuff…all proceeds go to our Mexico Missions trips (lets support this great outreach!!)

 

*New Sermon Series: FIGHT…Winning the Battles that Matter the Most

Are you willing to go down without a fight? Because it can happen so easily…your marriage, your family, your finances, your faith…all of these are in the battle zone.
This series is all about equipping us to fight the battles that matter the most, the ones that will eventually determine the state of our heart. In every single one of our lives, there are certain battles that you must fight and you must win.

This week in Kidzone the older elementary kids are ending their series called “TruthLab Investigations.” Fun lesson about discoveries Dr. Luke—our Head Researcher—made into Jesus’ life. Through these stories, kids will discover what God says about each of us as His children.

 This Sunday they will be looking at one of Jesus’ personal encounters to discover that God says He will finish the work He started in me. I can grow as God’s child. “I am sure that the One who began a good work in you will carry it on until it is completed.” Philippians 1:6

Ask your child who Jesus’ met on his journey this Sunday!
