Several activities are available for young people at Christ Church. A children's message is offered during Sunday service and before young people head off to Sunday School. We have an active Youth Group (Grade 7 to Post High). Summer camp programs and weekend retreats are held at Camp Van Es, near Edmonton.
Sunday Worship Services are held at 10:30 am with coffee and fellowship following the service. An adult Bible Study group meets most Saturdays at 9:00 am via Zoom. Book and Bible Study groups are formed during Advent and Lent as well as other times. Contact the church office if you would like to join Bible Study Groups.
The Moravian Church has a strong history of mission and is recognized as the first Protestant church to send out missionaries. At Christ Church, we believe that God calls us to live out our faith through service to those in need. As such, we support a wide variety of local and international mission initiatives. International work is done in conjunction with the Moravian Board of World Missions.
Christian fellowship is an important aspect of life at Christ Church. Along with coffee time after each service, we offer several social events throughout the year including Karaoke nights and a special Stampede service. We also have an active +55 Group with monthly activities including canasta twice a month on alternate Thursdays.
Everyone is welcome!
Women’s Fellowship meets monthly, usually on the first Wednesday of the month. These meetings involve a devotional time and a special activity along with business items. Members of this group provide mutual support and encouragement during difficult and special times. Women’s Fellowship also raises funds to support the church through bake sales, candle making, and catering of funerals and special events. Some members of Women’s Fellowship knit items that are donated to those in need. New participants are always welcome.
If you are interested in meeting with a group of like-minded men, then come along to Men’s Breakfast, generally the first Saturday of the month at 8:30 am. Discussion topics are many and varied and you may participate or just listen. Our breakfasts are bountiful and your small breakfast donation goes to a charity of our selection. We presently have both members and nonmembers of the church and would be glad to have you join us. We would enjoy getting to know you.
The CMC Garage Sale is being reimagined as a Spring Fun Fair and Flea Market. Watch for more details soon.
The Acadia Food Pantry (AFP) is a community-driven program organized and staffed by community members, service agencies and three local churches, including Christ Moravian. Set up to serve those living in Acadia and surrounding areas, the AFP provides food to anyone experiencing food insecurity.
The Pantry is housed at McDougall United (8516 Athabasca St. SE) and food is distributed on the third Tuesday of each month from 12 noon to 12:45 pm. Accommodations may be made for those living in the surrounding community who cannot attend at this time. During the last quarter or 2023 , the Acadia Food Pantry averaged 72 families per month consisting of 230 people. These numbers have continued to rise in 2024.
The AFP depends entirely on donations. Non-perishable food items can be dropped off at CMC. Cash donations are gratefully accepted as they allow the Pantry to purchase the most needed fresh and non-perishable items. Please visit the DONATE page on this website for ways to donate. 100% of donations will be used for the purchase of food and donations are eligible for a charitable tax receipt. Please be sure to mark your donation as “Acadia Food Pantry.”
Volunteers are vital to making this program work. View the PDF document below for more information on the AFP and its volunteer needs, or email acadiapantry@gmail.com.
