Living Grace Fellowship, Calgary, Alberta - a Real Church for Real People.

Our lives are all a complex history of joys and disasters, what matters most is how we deal with the present, not the past. We believe in a God who is relevant to our everyday circumstances and who cares about both our joys and our disasters.

Many at Living Grace Fellowship have walked down the path of religious legalism and exclusivism; we have seen, first-hand, the ugly nature of condemnation and "holier than thou" attitudes, and we have also seen the gentleness, forgiveness, and patience of God's Grace. That's why we can confidently invite you to worship with us, to learn & grow with us, because the journey is just as important as the destination.

If we can answer any questions, or assist you further in your walk towards Grace, please feel free to call in confidence, 403.443.5470, or email pastor Colin at: colin@livinggracefellowship.com.

MESSAGE FROM PASTOR COLIN

Thought for the month: "The true meaning of life is to plant trees under whose shade you do not expect to sit"
(Nelson Henderson - 1860)

I never wanted to be a pastor. I wanted to be a wildlife artist in Scotland or the Canadian Rockies. On many occassions it seemed that there was an easy exit from the demanding work of ministry, but I've never been one to settle for what was easiest. It is a great pleasure and privilege for me to have some measure of influence over people's spiritual journey, I can think of no higher responsiblity, and I find pastoring to be deeply satisfying.

Having served in ministry in Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Edmonton, Westlock and area, I am very pleased to have arrived at Canada's most cultured city (according to McLean's magazine), and I am very excited about the future for Living Grace Fellowship.

If you are new to LGF, please feel welcome to contact me if I can assist you in your spiritual walk, and I'm certain that you will be warmly greeted by our church family if you would like to join us for one of our worship services, small fellowship groups, summer camps, or outdoor hikes.
