Easter Sunday

     We had wonderful services at St. Peter's and St. Luke's on Easter Sunday morning. 
      It was an extra special Easter morning service at St. Peter's Alberton with the adult baptism of Terry.  Below are some photos from the service.

     Following the service we had lunch in the Hall complete with a cake to congratulate Terry.

Baptism at St. Peter's

    A baptism is always a time to celebrate and praise God for all his blessings.  On Sunday past we had a baptism at St. Peter's in Alberton - that of Layney Wanda Blair Smith, daughter of Lisa Marie and Kevin Benjamin Smith and sister to Landen Terrance Lee Smith.

  

 In His Constant Care

By artist Simon Dewey

      Biography of Artist: Simon Dewey was born in London, England. His father was an amateur artist who instilled in Simon a love for art. Simon studied for a while at a London art college, but later decided to work by himself to develop his talents. He soon had established a reputation as an excellent illustrator in London publishing circles.
     Simon came to find that his true love was in the painting of images of events found in the scriptures. These images received significant approval, and this encouraged Simon to enter the world of fine art. As Simon's talents have grown over the years, he has developed a truly special ability to portray the Savior Jesus Christ. His works bring us close to the Savior as they radiate love and compassion to all who view them.
     Simon currently lives in Cardston, Alberta with his wife and five children.

Combined Service & Baptisms at Holy Trinity Alma

     A combined parish service was held at Holy Trinity Alma Church on Sunday, August 12th with a good attendance and to witness a family baptism.

     Rev. Andrew officiated; Lay Reader Jan was server; scripture readings were by Bonnie; the organ was played by Davey; and the bulletins prepared by Janet.  Many thanks to all!!

 

    Those baptized were the two Peterson sisters and their young daughters.  This was the first baptism at Holy Trinity Alma since the spring of 1984 when Jennifer Jeffery was baptized here.

Following the service a potluck lunch was served in the church.

Christmas Eve

Our Parish holds two services on Christmas Eve and each year alternate between early and late service between St. Luke's O'Leary (below) and St. Peter's Alberton. This year the early service was at St. Luke's at 7pm.

The second Christmas Eve service was at St. Peter's at 9pm and was an extra special this year as we had a baptism.
