I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace given me through the working of his power.

Alberta Camp Meeting Camp Meeting Alberta 15- 23, 2016 July Ephesians 3:7 (NIV) Message from the President Welcome to Alberta Camp Meeting 2016!

When Paul wrote to the Ephesians, he commented, “I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace…” (Ephesians 3:7), hence the theme, “Servant of Grace.”

Healthy leadership is a core value our Conference embraces and Scripture is full of examples. Noah demonstrates leaders persist in doing right even if they have to stand alone, Joseph proved good leaders endure in spite of diffi culties, Moses validates that leaders accept counsel, Deborah displayed a willingness to come along side of her peo- ple when diffi cult tasks are to be accomplished, David exhibited incredible courage and Jesus reveals that a true leader is focused on serving rather than being served.

Perhaps the greatest threat to healthy leadership is egotism. Lucifer, a talented leader in God’s universe succumbed to pride. It leads to self-exaltation, a desire to control and ma- Ken Wiebe President nipulation. Even Jesus’ disciples openly sought to be the greatest and Jesus reminded Alberta Conference them, “But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant” (Matthew 23:11).

Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges in their book, Lead Like Jesus make this noteworthy statement, “Most of the leadership that shapes our lives does not come from leaders with titles or an organization chart; it comes from leaders in our daily life role relation- ships” (page 10). In other words, a leader is anyone who is aff ecting or infl uencing another, whether it is a parent, spouse, family member or friend. We are all leaders.

Our leadership style should be positive, uplifting and encouraging; full of grace. As we meet together this year, listen to inspiring messages and participate in the seminars, look for the ways the presenters help us understand what a Servant of Grace really looks like.

May God bless you during this Camp Meeting!

In 1910 the 30 members of the Harmattan Foothills Camp Heritage Church Seventh-day Adventist congregation built this church which was dedicated in the fall of 1911. Due to members moving out of the area, it was sold in 1938 to the Church of the Nazarene group. Years later it had fallen into disuse, so in 2001 it was purchased back by the Alberta Conference and moved 30 kms to where it sits today at Foothills Camp. It stands as a reminder of the pioneer heritage and provides a worshipful atmosphere for small groups and special events.
