Donate to Christmas Food Hampers at Mamawi Atosketan Native School
Usually, at this time of the year, we are looking for donations from our conference churches for our Christmas Mall. Due to extended concerns about Covid-19 and our current pandemic situation, we have decided to eliminate the mall and send each family a Christmas Food Hamper. If you would like to help with this endeavor please contact our school at (403)783-4362 or office@mansalberta.ca.
AAN December Issue is Ready! Special Message from The President
This is a time to reflect on the importance of our Creator coming to Earth to mingle among us and set us free from bondage. Let's celebrate, giving generously, and giving a helping hand to those in need.
Living in a time of post-pandemic, and while the walls that support us feel increasingly insufficient and even flawed, we, like Peter and David, may know and trust the call of our God to carry forward in His path, and yet waver. By Nanette Quines, Associate Editor

For many families in Kenya, the fight against hunger has become a fight for life. Children and the elderly are dying of hunger caused by five years of drought, lost livelihoods, and other factors. Acting now will save lives. Please give so that others may live. It’s time to dethrone hunger and set a place for Justice at the Table.
The prophet Daniel has inspired millions of Christians through the Biblical account of his life through his bravery in the lions' den, his courage to speak before kings, and his conviction to share the prophetic insights given him.
