Welcome to FAC (First Alliance Church)! To translate the website into your preferred language, look for the drop-down option in the main menu. Here are this week’s announcements:
NEW Teaching Series Begins! We all have stories about making U-turns in life. Sometimes, we just need to pivot! Our spiritual journey is no different. This Fall, let’s explore the different ways Jesus invites us to join Him in new directions. This Weekend: When was the last time you truly felt satisfied? We scroll, chase trends, and look for the next thing, but somehow, we still want more. Maybe we need to switch things up to find out what – or who – can satisfy our need for purpose and identity once and for all. Welcome to First Alliance Church!

Alpha
Alpha is a great place to start if you or someone you know has questions about life, faith, and God. Every Thursday night you'll enjoy a free dinner, watch a video exploring the basics of the Christian faith, then get a chance to share your thoughts and listen to others as you chat around your table.
Alpha is the first step in our Discipleship Pathway here at FAC, and it begins October 1 with our Deerfoot, Southwest, Online and Portuguese Campuses! Learn more and register here.

Is Jesus Enough?
"I think in our world today, there is so much to worry about. Politics, separation, inflation, and what we are going to do; we're worried about many things that seem uncertain. And when they become the thing that occupies all our spare thinking time, I don't know how close I am really getting to Jesus in that ... I need to bring that to Jesus and not just try and fix it all myself," reflects Pastor James Paton.
The prophet Malachi spoke to people who still believed in God but had slowly stopped giving Him their best. In a bonus podcast to wrap up our The Twelve B-Sides series, Pastor James and Pastor Rosalind explored the book of Malachi and the challenge of examining our hearts and learning to fully treasure Jesus for who He is. Check out the full podcast transcript on the blog:
