Greetings friends,

A number of the staff of Fort City Church (our sister church in Fort McMurray) have established a temporary office at Beulah Alliance Church. After prayerful consideration, Fort City Church and Beulah are partnering to host a Sunday afternoon church service for the people of Fort City Church and the wider Fort Mac community.

This is a service "by Ft. McMurray, for Ft. McMurray". The church service will be at 3 p.m. In the Beulah auditorium. Through the use of social media, our networks and the media - they hope to invite every person from Fort McMurray who is currently staying in Edmonton or surrounding areas. They will have worship, and prayer and a message by Fort City Pastor Doug Doyle, and then host a connecting time following the service (around 4 p.m.) in Beulah's Higher Ground coffee shop for Fort McMurray folks to gather for encouragement, story-telling and ministry.

We have heard from many that they are looking for ways to serve. If you are interested in serving the people of Ft. Mac on Sunday afternoon here is how you can do that:

ROLES NEEDED:

1. Ushers, greeters and hosts. They need to direct folks to the auditorium, welcome them and ensure they are welcomed well. (Quick training will be provided).
2. Musicians. Fort City Church will have a "core" of musicians but could use some further assistance - vocalists and potential other band members. They are hoping to have a service schedule done soon, and will be rehearsing before the service Sunday afternoon.
3. Trauma specialists: Are you a trained trauma specialist? Would you be willing to be available to listen, support and serve the people of Ft. Mac who will be connecting at Beulah's Higher Ground coffee area?

If you are interested in serving in any of these ways, or can think of another way that you could serve that we haven't mentioned - please contact Stacy Alexander at Beulah: [email protected]

Sincerely,
