June 21/22, 2025: CommunionThe Book of Judges

Even “good” people can be seduced into choosing bad things. When we turn to the things of this world, we always end up empty, though. But good news: God works in and through broken people like Micah … and still does today. Don’t miss this weekend as we wrap up our series on the book of Judges and pause to take communion together.

Supporting Short-Term Missions

Joining Jesus on mission is something we can ALL be a part of. Even if you’re not going on a short-term mission trip this year, we can all support those who are by committing to pray and give!

  • It’s not too late to register for the Story & Dessert Night THIS Sunday, June 22 at 5:00 pm in the Harvest Rooms! Come and hear first-hand what the Ghana and Cambodia teams experienced, and learn how we can pray for and support the upcoming Colombia trip over dessert & coffee.
  • Clear out your closets and basements for a Garage Sale Fundraiser on Saturday, July 5 in support of short-term missions through FAC!  Be sure to check what we’re accepting/not accepting, drop off your donations July 2-4 at FAC Deerfoot, and then shop for a good cause on Saturday, July 5!

For more information, please contact Bev Dow, Missions Administrator.

FROM THE BLOG

The Story Behind Every Voice

“When the challenges of life threaten to silence one person’s voice, another voice rises up in faith  alongside them, and behind them, and in front of them – powerful reminders of God’s goodness from real people around them who are also facing their own challenges and struggles. The song of the redeemed. The anthem of the Church. The sound of every voice.

This is the heart behind the release of our very first FAC Music live worship album: Every Voice. We intentionally recorded this album at our very first Fill the Room night of worship, because I knew hearing our church singing together would inspire our church to sing together even more. This album is not just for your personal listening enjoyment (though I think you will REALLY enjoy it!). This is not just for your personal worship in between weekend gatherings (though I think it will inspire that).

This Every Voice album is really meant to be a catalyst for us in our journey of becoming that kind of ‘all-in’ worshipping community – a vibrant witness to each other and to the world that we are passionately in love with Jesus!”

Join us for the album launch party at 8:00 pm on Saturday, June 21 in the Harvest Rooms at FAC Deerfoot and  let’s celebrate what God is doing through the voice of FAC! Read the rest of Pastor Dave’s thoughts on the blog:

Financial Year-End: Let’s Finish Strong!

As we close out our budget year this month, we’re believing for $700,000 by June 30 to launch strong into another year of joining Jesus in the renewal of all things. Your generosity fuels life change, hope, healing, and the upkeep of the spaces where we gather!

Would you prayerfully consider how you can be part of this story?
