Meals for MANS

“I have the audacity to believe that people everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education, and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits.” Martin Luther King, Jr.  ADRA could not agree more. By serving humanity so all may live as God intended, we seek to ensure the health, development, and dignity of people both overseas and here in Canada.

Best Practices for Online Children’s Ministries

The Children’s Ministries Department of the Alberta Conference is excited to partner with Prairie Adventist eSchool (PACeS) to offer two sessions to improve your virtual ministries for young children. As the COVID pandemic continues to challenge churches and especially children's ministries to engage their members, we’re blessed to have a team of national experts in online children’s instruction right here in the Alberta Conference. The PACeS staff are excited to pass on their experience and ideas for using Zoom to engage your young children in church programs and Sabbath Schools. So, if you work in your church's Children's Ministries or Children's Sabbath School departments, please consider joining us on Monday, October 19 and Monday, October 26 at 7 pm for two one-hour sessions.

Sessions will be taught by professional Adventist children’s educators with plenty of time for Q&A and practicing these concepts yourself. If you’re involved in ministering to younger children online, you won’t want to miss this event. Please register at www.albertaadventist.ca/ChM2020

Youth Empowerment Weekend, December 5, 2020


On December 5, 2020, we are blessed to have Pastor Ron Sydney. He grew up in St. Lucia. He was called to ministry at a young age. He answered the call and went to study Theology at Canadian University College. After graduating he was called to pastor the Ephesus and Richland Churches. It wasn’t too long after his successful ministry that Pastor Ron was called to pastor the 24/7 church in Seattle Washington. Currently, Pastor Ron is serving as the lead pastor for two churches in the Detroit area, Pontiac Southside and Detroit Center. Pastor Ron loves preaching and loves sharing inspiring messages to young people. His raw authentic and transparent style allows hearers to engage with him and connect with him on another level.
