Your Mission & Service Dollars

When you designate an offering to the Mission and Service Fund of the United Church, it goes to support local, national and global ministries.

The M&S gifts from across the country are pooled together in a unified fund, then shared across ministries. This year the Alberta and Northwest Conference will distribute $280,000 of your unified M&S gifts in areas of congregational support, community outreach and campus ministry. Click here to see the specific ministries that will receive gifts.

     Raise your hands and feel the Spirit blow! 
        Lift your eyes and see the Spirit ablaze! 
            Pentecost is here!
This Sunday the church celebrates Pentecost Sunday. It is a living remembrance of the Holy Spirit's sweeping testimony in the lives of early Christians.  With mystery and wonder God's Good News was experienced by all who gathered that day. God spoke to them so each could understand, and then they spoke to one another testifying about God's love through Christ....
