Canadian Women's Gathering: Saturday, March 19
Where:Edmonton, Alberta
Speaker: Ruth Vallevik
Chairs were hastily stacked, and tables appeared, while fingers deftly smoothed blue fabric over the flat surfaces, and platters with attractively arranged food were whisked into the room by efficient Edmonton and Beaumont women. Burnewood Hall was transformed from the meeting place of the CLBC Convention (Church of the Lutheran Brethren Canada) to a lovely noon luncheon room for the women of the region!
The churches of Alberta and Saskatchewan are many hours apart. But this gathering with Ruth Vallevik, Director of Women’s Ministries for the CLB was enjoyed by women representing both provinces, and over half of the Canadian churches. They enjoyed food, conversation, camaraderie, a chance to share about their local church ministries, and a message of encouragement from the Scriptures by Ruth.
