Growing in the Faith is back in 2024!
All UCG young adults are invited to join us at the 2024 Growing in the Faith from January 19th – 22th.
We will have plenty of time for fellowship, sledding, games, and dancing. This will be a great chance to spend quality time with fellow brothers and sisters in the faith in a positive, uplifting atmosphere.
There will also be time spent considering the great questions of life, including the existence of God, who humans are and their purpose, the Word of God, free will, and more. For someone who has grown up in the Church, these questions may sound very basic. Yet they are also very deep and profound, and should be the foundation of everything we are and everything we do. As we consider these questions together, we will also discuss how the answers affect our daily lives.
Register by December 15th for special pricing. Don’t miss out on this chance to spend valuable time with other young adults who are committed to living God’s way of life.
Sheldon is the oldest son of Don and Betty Sitter, a couple who raised their family of six children on a farm in Northern Saskatchewan. Sheldon’s parents were baptized in 1969. Sheldon graduated from the Pasadena campus of Ambassador College in 1990 after taking an extra year to teach English in Thailand. After AC he went on to earn a degree in engineering, and then worked in various countries around the world. Sheldon now lives back on the family farm in Saskatchewan and pastors congregations in western Canada. He is the proud dad of one adult son, and whenever they get together they like to spend their spare time fishing and farming.
