Special News from Warren & Jackie McCaig! We have just confirmed our travel to Canada this summer! This is great news but has us planning our home assignment on a lot shorter notice than usual. We will arrive in Canada next week (June 17) and will be completing the mandatory two-week quarantine. After it is finished, we have two months available to connect with you (as safety and regulations allow). We are so excited to be able to express our gratitude to all of you that support our work in Bolivia. It is also the first opportunity for Jackie and the kids to be in Canada in two years. We apologize for the last-minute nature of this message, but some international flights have just been reinstated again in Bolivia. It would be extremely helpful if anyone has a vehicle that we could rent or borrow, large enough for our family of five and some luggage to travel around western Canada from July 1 until Aug 30. We would also be happy to rent a small motor-home if someone has one parked as it would help us save on lodging and food costs while we travel around. We will be based out of central Alberta and due to the pandemic will be emphasizing small group connections. If you would like to host or be a part of a small gathering and hear an update on the work in Bolivia please let us know. With joy and gratitude (and face masks), Warren & Jackie Warren & Jackie’s latest update, fresh as of Tuesday this week! https://mcusercontent.com/df805dc969d4f738778a0a414/files/2a98e5b9-4b67-4b99-9521-514f7de0412e/Prayer_Letter_May_2020.pdf For more information on Warren and Jackie, see the Global Worker page on our Website: https://www.mountoliveefc.com/collections/global-outreach ALSO: As a church we support 5 couples that work in creative access countries in North Africa, Asia and the Middle East. While we can’t give you specifics so as to not compromise their safety, we want to pray for God’s care and protection over them and fruitfulness in their ministry. For more infomation visit:

COVID-19 UPDATE
Hey Church Family, As you likely know, the government has opened up to Phase 2 this week as we continue to “open up” as a province. This has not meant a loosening of some specific restrictions, which has made our opening up as a church and the plan we would put out a little more challenging to navigate. We are continuing to work on a re-opening plan, as staff and leadership, and later next week we will send out more communication as to what the specifics may look like. As with most things, church will look quite different then it did pre-COVID, at least for the first while here. We trust you will be understanding and patient with us as we work out this plan and walk into it together. I believe God has done much good through this time in expanding our reach and our impact and drawing hearts to Himself We praise the Lord for that and look forward to Pastor Alvin |
