The Parkland Pastors:

District Diaries February 2024 Edition
​by Marvin Penner

     As many of you know the Evangelical Free Church of Canada has a partnership with Prairie College in Three Hills Alberta to provide assistance to students from EFCC churches who enroll in the pastoral and missions' programs. In January Trevor Braudy, the Prairie District Superintendent, and I spent some time at the college to meet with and encourage the students who are participants in this program. We team taught a class of pastoral students and treated the students in the EFCC sponsorship program to a home cooked meal.  These students are training to become leaders in the future. Pray for these students. Pray that God will guide them and prepare them for a life of ministry.
     The prophet Jeremiah was lamenting the lack of good shepherds in his time when God promised that a time would come when, "I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will lead you with knowledge and understanding." (Jeremiah 3:15) I wonder if you have been praying that God would show you which young people in your church God has gifted to become good shepherds? I wonder if you have come alongside those young people and encouraged them to pursue the call of God on their future?
