Alberta Conference Evangelism
Last month the Alberta Conference passed the 13,000-member mark! We praise God for the many people who have recently joined our Alberta Conference family through baptism. Since the start of this Quinquennium (May of 2023) we have welcomed 525 new members into church membership by baptism or profession of faith! As a result of the Calgary “Footprints of Hope” series with Pastor Glen Samuels, over 110 people have been baptized! Several other congregations have recently conducted evangelistic meetings, and many others have been baptized!
Our conference baptismal goal for the current quinquennium is 3,000 people. God has blessed us with a great start! As we look forward to Pentecost 2025, half of our churches have already registered to conduct evangelistic meetings next year. Pentecost 2025 is focused on four main objectives:
- Praying for the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit
- Serving our Towns and Cities
- Proclaiming the Good News (ie. Evangelistic Meetings)
- Discipling the New Believers and Integrating them into the Church
Churches that register for Pentecost 2025 are provided with $3,000 USD from the North American Division, and additional funding from the Alberta Conference. Online training is available at https://pentecost2025.com/. The deadline to register your church for Pentecost 2025 is December 31, 2024.
The Alberta Conference is laser-focused on mission! Many of our congregations are participating in Pentecost 2025. Our Hope Channel Canada speakers will be conducting simultaneous evangelistic meetings in many of our Edmonton Churches next fall. Four of our Rural Churches will benefit from having Bible Workers in 2025. We anticipate a surge of baptisms in 2025!
If you would like to support these evangelistic initiatives, please contribute online or through your local church to “Alberta Conference Evangelism.” https://www.albertaadventist.ca/giving.
