St. Albert Alliance Church

As we approach the end of Lent, we step into the tension of Palm Sunday—a moment of celebration filled with deep misunderstanding. The crowds expected power and revolution, but Jesus came offering something far different: a lasting peace. This week, we invite you to slow down, reflect, and consider that the peace we’re longing for may look different from what we expect. Join us as we journey towar...

For the final week of our series, The Prayer that Shapes Us, we look at putting together being Christ-centered, Spirit-empowered and Mission-focused. Have you ever heard anyone ask the question, “What good is the church?” This week, we’ll find out whose church this is and what He has to say about it being good. As a bonus, you’ll get a chance to hear about my friend, Max, who I met on a trip to Th...

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church! Has anyone ever asked you about why you are handling life differently than most people while going through struggles? And you are not sure what to say? On Sunday we are talking about how to be ready to give an answer when someone asks.

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church!    This Sunday at StAAC, we move into being Mission-focused in our series on The Prayer That Shapes Us diving into talking about the Great Commandment from Luke 10:25-37! Looking at the story of the Good Samaritan, we seek to find an answer to who God is calling us to serve. We will find that being Mission-focused is not just about over there, it is also righ...

Spiritual gifts are not first about what we do, but about who lives in us. The Holy Spirit Himself is the true gift, and spiritual gifts are the visible expression of His presence as we surrender more fully to Him. While each of us may recognize certain gifts more clearly in our lives, the same Spirit lives in every believer, empowering ordinary people to participate in the work of Jesus beyond th...

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church!  This Sunday at StAAC, we continue being Spirit-Empowered in our series on The Prayer That Shapes Us.  Join us this Sunday as we explore Paul’s words to the Church in Galatia on the results of two ways of living, and explore how we are invited to step into life in the spirit, take off the burdens of the law, and reflect God’s character in the places where we...

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church!  This Sunday at StAAC, we continue being Spirit-Empowered in our series on The Prayer That Shapes Us.  What's love got to do with it? Join us Sunday to hear encouragement to the church from 1Corinthians 13 and 1John 4 about the God who loves us and has filled us with His love by His Holy Spirit to love those around us in the church and in the places where we...

We are looking at how God is here with us and empowering us to be an answer to the difficulties we are seeing in our world today. Read ahead in Ephesians 1:13-23; 2:6; 3:16-19 to get a glimpse at what it means to be Spirit-Empowered both for us and for the places where we live, learn, work, and play.  Join us in praying The Prayer That Shapes Us:  O God, with all our hearts, we long for you.  Come...

This Sunday, we’re looking at Jesus’ response to a powerful question: What matters most? Jesus points us to two inseparable commands — to love God with all that we are and to love our neighbour as ourselves. Together, we’ll explore what it means to declare Jesus as Lord, not just in belief but in everyday life. Come ready to reflect, respond, and take a next step of love.

This Sunday at StAAC: We are Christ-centred in our series on The Prayer That Shapes Us. Jesus' invitation from Luke 9:23-25 to "Take up your cross daily and follow Me" is no small request. It is radical, especially in our day today, to deny yourself and follow Jesus. Why would anyone do this? And what do we need to know about who Jesus is as we consider this invitation? In preparation for this wee...

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church! Jesus invites the weary and burdened to find rest in Him. This sets the tone for the whole series: being Jesus-centered begins not with striving, but with coming to Him personally — resting in His presence and learning His “easy yoke.”

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church!  And here it is—the moment when promise becomes presence. “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” The story that began in ancient prophecy and grew through wilderness voices and whispered “yeses” now bursts into the world. God’s light has come, and it still shines. The night is real, but it isn’t final. The Light has come, an...

Advent doesn’t end when the candles burn down; it begins to take shape in how we live. John says that to know God is to love others—that’s what it means to walk in the light. The darkness is passing, and the true light is already shining. Living in the light means choosing love over resentment, grace over cynicism, compassion over indifference. The light we celebrate is meant to be lived.

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church! This Sunday at StAAC: We are still Longing for the Light. Join us for the Third Sunday of Advent as we focus on Receiving the Light. When the angel comes to Mary, she doesn't have all the answers - just enough faith to say "yes". When the angel comes to Zechariah, he looks at all his grief - and pauses.  The miracle of Christmas begins with one person's willi...

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church! This Sunday at StAAC: We are still Longing for the Light. Join us for the Second Sunday of Advent as we focus on Preparing for the Light.   Before the light breaks through, someone stands in the wilderness shouting, "Prepare the Way!" John's message is clear and simple; it's time to come home-the Kingdom is at hand. Find out who this John is and why his messa...

 This weekend is a milestone moment in the life of our church family. We are thrilled to welcome Greg Clark, our new Lead Pastor, along with his wife Farrell and their kids, as Greg begins his ministry with us. This will be our first opportunity to greet the Clark’s as we step into this new season together with gratitude and anticipation.   It’s fitting that their arrival coincides with the first...

In James 4:13-5:6, we see a stark contrast between the world's values of control, self-interest, and recognition versus God's invitation to trust, generosity, and eternal significance. Join us as we explore these three life-changing exchanges that can transform how we live, serve, and find our worth. 

What does real faith look like in real life? The Book of James doesn’t pull any punches—it’s bold, practical, and unapologetically focused on how we live, not just what we believe. In a world full of noise, pressure, and conflicting voices, we’re invited to walk The Way of Wisdom—a path shaped by humility, integrity, and active faith.  This week we’re looking at James 4:1-12, where we learn how co...

Welcome to St. Albert Alliance Church!  In a world obsessed with proving ourselves and chasing success, James reminds us that not all wisdom leads to life. Worldly wisdom is fueled by envy and selfish ambition and ultimately breeds disorder, but wisdom from above is born out of God-centered humility and results in peace and righteousness. True wisdom isn’t found in striving or comparison, but in s...

Missed the service on the weekend? Listen to the sermon again or for the first time right here, right now. In our Who We Are series, we’ve been exploring what it means to be a church family shaped by Jesus. This week, we’re diving into the call to be servants—not because it’s a nice idea, but because Jesus Himself came not to be served, but to serve. Scripture shows us that every follower of Jesus...
