Growing Life Together with God

St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church
LinX Email for April 10, 2024
 Apr 14th  - “Our identity - gift or choice?  Yes.”

Apr 14th - “Our identity - gift or choice? Yes.”

Rev. Laurie McKay

Have you ever marveled at how children reflect their parents in either their physical characteristics or manners?  In the Scripture today, we are reminded that Jesus is still connected to humanity after the resurrection, and we embody Christ as children of God.  Do you have his mind, eyes, touch, or smile?

Have you been wondering about having your child baptized?  Or being baptized yourself?  Have you been feeling that you would like to become a member of this congregation?  Or even wondering what it MEANS to be a member of a congregation?
Rev. Laurie would be happy to facilitate a class on either ~ or both ~ of those topics. If you are interested, please call the church office at 403.255.0001.  We will take your contact information, and be in touch with you if there is interest.

Grrrrr!!!!    Here we go again…

Grrrrr!!!! Here we go again…

Some of you, like me, may get an email ‘from Laurie McKay’ - NOT! - asking you to get in touch with her.  Laurie, like Peter before her, does not need you to purchase gift cards for her.  Or to send her money.  Please DO NOT respond to emails that come with any such requests.  The only thing Laurie is going to ask of you is your participation in worship or the life of our congregation - NOT to buy things for her.  ~ Deb
