Message from Bill P., Fort Macleod AB

I believe that the Anglicans must socialize with the other Christians of the town. Avoid being exclusive like a private club.

In Fort Macleod there are six Christian congregations:

  • Alliance and Missionary
  • Anglican
  • Netherland Reform
  • Roman Catholic
  • United Church
  • Victory/Pentecostal

Three of the five have seasonal, fund raising meals.

Only a handful of Anglicans are ambitious enough to attend and support the “socials” hosted by the Roman Catholics and the United Church!

The Anglicans cannot expect the Catholics and United to attend Anglican teas and suppers if they do not reciprocate!

The Lutheran Church is in Granum, 22km north.
