Welcome

by Kat Goheen, Shannon McAdam and Gwyn Beer
Mission Centre Co-Presidents

The world may be changing quickly, but our Canada West Mission Centre continues Growing Together. We are overjoyed for the chance to gather again as a mission centre in a new way through three main sites and many online connections. Together we will look at our budget, decide if we will change who can vote at conference, and sustain our officers. We will also celebrate and worship together.
 
Our focus scripture comes from Colossians, and talks about “bearing fruit in every good work and as you grow in the knowledge of God.” This is what we are called to do together – not alone. We look forward to connecting with you.
