ABBOTSFORD will soon have a new 8,500 seat
Entertainment and Sports Centre, at 33800 King Road. The official opening
will take place during the first week in May.
The first public meeting at the new facility will bring
churches together, under the leadership of the Abbotsford Christian Leaders
Network (ACLN), for a city–wide church celebration – 7 pm, May
8. The following evening, the renowned Christian rock band Third Day will
play a concert at the facility.
The theme for the worship event will be
‘Together, Embracing One Hope.’ Worship leaders and musicians
from several local churches will be leading the celebration, with a choir
consisting of singers and leaders from many congregations. The church
community in Abbotsford is covering the costs – with most already
underwritten. An offering will be taken for current social projects.
The ACLN has several projects to help the homeless,
orphans, at-risk youth, prisoners – and those who are destitute in
spirit in the city.
