The Joint Advisory Council urges church leaders, as well as members of the McDougall, Ogden and Red Deer Lake communities of faith, to attend one or more of these sessions that will take place over the next 6 months. Your input is foundational to the success of this visioning project!
The focus for each session will be one of the 5 key areas of our church life: Fellowship, Worship, Christian Education, Pastoral Care and Social Justice and Outreach .
The November 1 shared Conversation will focus on Fellowship.
To learn more about the Joint Advisory Council work that has led to these ‘Shared Conversations” as well as details related to this project, you can learn more by reading this document: Questions about the Congregational Year of Discernment project and/or by watching the video linked below.

Open Table: Hallow-Mas Event
'Twas the night before Hallow-mas, when all through the hall,
Not a creature was stirring, from short to the tall.

While carols of ghosts and old goblins were sung.
The families gathered from miles around,
To build the most haunted ghost-houses in town!
With gingerbread walls and with frosting of fright,
We celebrate two festive worlds in one night.
Come dressed as a witch, or an elf, or a deer,
To toast to the best of the holiday year!

With magic and monsters and holiday brew.

Prepared to Drown is a monthly recorded podcast & live event with a variety of exciting themes exploring the intersection of faith & the world we live in today.
Podcast Episode: “Man Enough”
Men are facing real loneliness, declining mental health and a persistent suicide crisis while inherited definitions of masculinity are losing their authority. Into that uncertainty step influencers, political movements and churches offering discipline, belonging and purpose, often by restoring hierarchy and converting pain into grievance. This episode asks what men genuinely need, why male suffering is so easily weaponized, and whether Christianity can form men whose strength creates freedom, safety and life for others rather than control.
Podcast features: Rev. Bill Weaver, Ricardo De Menezes, Rev. Joanne Anquist
Space is limited, please let us know that you are coming. We do have a waitlist for if this event fills up. If we have a cancellation, you will be contacted.

Prepared to Drown is a monthly recorded podcast & live event with a variety of exciting themes exploring the intersection of faith & the world we live in today.
Podcast Episode: “No Room at the Inn”
Churches sing about a holy family searching for shelter while unhoused people in our own cities are moved along, designed out of public spaces, and blamed for surviving where everyone can see them. The biblical story is more complicated than the innkeeper and stable of our Christmas pageants, yet it still unfolds amid overcrowding, political power, vulnerable birth, and forced displacement. How did Christians learn to cherish homelessness as sacred imagery while resisting unhoused people in real life—and what are we prepared to make room for when welcome costs us something?
