CHURCH PLANT
Spruce Grove Church Plant
The Spruce Grove Church Plant is an initiative of the St. Albert Canadian Reformed Church with the goal of establishing a confessionally Reformed Church in the Spruce Grove area.
First Day of Worship in Spruce Grove
Here are the plans for the first day of worship in Spruce Grove:
- Date: Sunday, April 27, 2025
- Location: St. Matthew's Lutheran Church, 101 McLeod Ave., Spruce Grove, AB
- Service Times: 12:00pm and 3:00pm
- Bibles & Books of Praise: Please bring your own Bibles and Books of Praise for worship, as the songs will not be projected. If you are a guest, please ask the Ushers for a Bible and Book of Praise.
- Babysitting: No babysitting is currently being provided. There is a small nursery and a foyer just outside the auditorium and a basement where parents may bring their children if required.
- Coffee Social: A coffee social is being planned for after the 12:00pm service on April 27.
Take note that 12:00pm and 3:00pm are the regular scheduled worship times. However, on Sunday, May 4, worship times are scheduled for 1:00pm and 3:00pm, due to a congregational meeting that St. Matthew's is holding on the morning of May 4.
Supervision of the Church Plant
The St. Albert Council/Consistory will oversee the work of the Church Plant. All participants in the Church Plant will remain members of the St. Albert Canadian Reformed Church and will be under the pastoral care of the elders and deacons of St. Albert.
Catechism instruction will also remain at St. Albert for the time being.
Preaching in Spruce Grove will be provided by Rev. Wieske, guest ministers and elder readings until the calling of a minister for Spruce Grove becomes possible.
Support the Church Plant
Consider supporting the Church Plant in the following ways:
- Pray: We ask that you may pray that the Lord will bless this work of establishing Reformed preaching and sacraments in the Spruce Grove area and that the Lord may eventually enable the institution of a Reformed Church in Spruce Grove.
- Visit: Visit the Church Plant to participate in and support the worship of our Lord and Saviour.
- Join: Members of sister churches that would like to join the Spruce Grove Church Plant should follow the normal process of changing church membership by requesting an attestation to the St. Albert Canadian Reformed Church.
