Our Pastor
Michael McElroy
Michael
was born in Alameda, California and moved to Arlington Texas when he was
eleven.
While
earning a degree in music and studying classical guitar, Michael was also
being shaped as a minister. Involvement in campus ministries gave him the
opportunity to not only hew his musical skill, but develop a heart for the
hurting and the lost.
The
son of a minister of music, Michael became familiar with a variety of
musical styles at an early age. It was at a little Baptist church in Texas
that Michael first began to recognize the power of music to communicate.
The process of becoming a song writer happened naturally as this young
musician learned to play his guitar inspired by the Christian works of Love
Song, Phil keaggy, and the 2nd
Chapter of Acts.
It
was during these formative years that while touring with The
Spirit of Life, Michael sensed God’s leading to Canada. Following
his graduation from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary in 1985,
Michael and his wife Charlotte came to Winnipeg
were they served the inner city and First Nations people. Michael and
Charlotte worked in Winnipeg for over nine years and then moved to St.
Albert with their three children: Calvin, Tom, and Michal-Renee.
A
Message from the pastor . . .
Everybody
needs a place along his spiritual journey where he can sense the presence
of God and worship Him, where he can receive spiritual strength and
guidance for the week ahead, where he can belong to a caring group of
people who encourage him along the way.
As
a pastor, I have been touched by the love of God and have found in Jesus
Christ a joy and purpose in living.
Wherever
you are on your spiritual journey, it is our desire that you will
experience this love of God by participating in our weekly celebration of
life in Him.
There
is a place for you in this growing fellowship.
We look forward to the possibility of your becoming part of the
Church Family. We invite you
to come and grow strong with us!
