Men

Welcome to “The Men’s Room” —  A gathering where men can come together and meet their brothers. A place where we can get to know one another, form some deeper relationships, and walk along side one another in our Christian journey.

Monday nights at 7:00pm in room 120 at the church, come in the front doors. Come have a coffee, maybe a snack, some fellowship.

Questions? Email Jeff Oliver

Studies for men of all ages and stages. Studies are ongoing—you are welcome to join at any time.

Tuesdays at 6:30 am | Room 124

Women

We all want a faith that won’t let us down in times of trouble or loss, uncertainty or fear. A faith that can pull us through the worst–and best–times in our lives. This is the kind of faith that James writes about. It is a faith that we must practice day by day. These nine-session LifeGuide® Bible Study by Andrew and Phyllis Le Peau on the teaching of James will help us grow a steadfast faith that can carry us through all the ups and downs of life.

This Small Group Women’s Bible Study will be co-facilitated by Bonnie Bateman & Chris Hogg.

It will meet at the church once a week for 10 weeks at 7:00 pm on Wednesday evenings from the beginning of October to the beginning of December

Marriage

Congratulations on your engagement! We’re honoured that you are considering having the Evangelical Free Church of Lethbridge (EFCL) be part of your wedding, whether that’s hosting your wedding ceremony at our church or having one of our pastor’s officiate your wedding!

Our desire for pre-marital is to equip and prepare couples for marriage. It is important for you to know that our emphasis at EFCL is not weddings but marriage. We desire to see your marriage be a lasting and fulfilling relationship. Pre-marital and early marriage support can make a significant difference in the long-term health and viability of your marriage. This is why we have a pre-martial process which involves counselling, mentoring, and our pre-marital conference.

To request a pastor to officiate your wedding click here.

For any other pre-marital questions and info email Luke.

 

At the Evangelical Free Church of Lethbridge, we desire to see marriages thrive. Whatever your situation, whether you go to church, or whether your relationship is in good shape or struggling we want to walk along side you.

Stay tuned for future events and ways we plan to support and equip you for a healthy marriage.

The Marriage Mentoring initiative pairs younger couples with older couples who want to listen and invest in your lives. Over the course of 1 year, couples will commit to meeting with each other once a month. This isn’t crisis counselling, it’s an opportunity to share your story and learn from the life experience of another couple.

Mentoring might sound intimidating but it’s not. You and your spouse have more to offer than you realize. Your story, with all its ups and downs, can give help and hope to a younger couple.

Problems arise in every marriage. From infidelity to a lack of communication, poor emotional and physical intimacy, fighting and conflict, breaking of trust, disagreements about how best to live life, and so much else, marriages face constant challenges. When a marriage hits a point of crisis, there can be a sense of shame about where things are at, and how things do not fit with the ideal you had in mind when you said: “I do”. There comes a time when people can no longer shade their eyes from the messiness of a marriage. While our first inclination may be toward keeping our struggles concealed and going it alone, finding a place to be safe, honest, and supported can help you and your spouse.

When Your Marriage is in Crisis:

  1. Ensure you are safe. Ask for help.
  2. Face things with honesty. It is hard to admit where things are at, but it is important.
  3. Seek support. Support can be found in resources, counselling, and community like friends and family.
