Welcome to the Lutheran Church of the Master
"Christ is Risen!"
Easter is upon us. We celebrate the season for 50 days.
The empty tomb invites us to reconsider our assumptions. Is there more to this world than we thought?
Possibility abounds as we marvel at the mystery of new life, renewed lives and eternal life beyond the grave.
The resurrection account comes to us through the stories of those early followers who witnessed the Risen Christ. The changes in their lives and mission are the evidence that something really happened. That Jesus really rose from the dead.
Decades after that first Easter, St. Paul encouraged the churches with the conviction that this power at work in Jesus is the same power at work in you! (Ephesians 1:19-20)
Join us, jaws dropped, in singing "Alleluia" in praise and awe of what this might mean.
Pastor Tim Wray

Could you Host a Ukranian Family?
Hosts for Ukrainian evacuees are desperately needed! If you can open your home, there are evacuees coming in June that will need temporary accommodation. A host can offer a room or rooms in their home for a family to stay until they are ready to move into their own accommodation. SWARM (South West Area Refugee Ministry) can help put you in contact with a family, through St Vladimir’s Ukrainian Orthodox Church – Ukrainian Humanitarian Aid - and SWARM will help support you and the newcomers through the process.
You can go straight to https://stvlads.com/housingforrefugees
Or you can call a SWARM member or email for information at calgaryswarm@gmail.com
