Pastor Jeff Edwards spoke about how if you love someone, you want to believe them. But with so much information coming at us these days, can you believe all of it?

Shaan and Katie Kondra, from Camp Chestermere, were our guest speakers. God lavishes His transforming love on us, even though we don’t deserve it. He has called us His children. As children of God, our true nature isn't fully revealed yet. But we know that when Christ appears, we will be like Him and see Him as He truly is. This transforming love fuels our hope, inspiring us to purify ourselves, just as He is pure. They used 1 John 3:1-3 as their scripture.

Have you ever met an obedient, loving child, then met their parents later and went… “ah, of course”, because they were also good and kind people? John’s themes of love and light intersect to inspire us to grow in godly character. Jeff spoke from 1 John 3:1-10. We had Communion, too. Have your elements ready so you can participate, too.
