We are blessed to have three full time summer missionaries to serve with us this summer!

Kinsey Galyon is a Senior at Reinhardt University in Georgia and a member of the Women’s Basketball Team.  She is a member of Sevier Heights Baptist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.   This is Kinsey’s third year in Calgary with Southwinds Church.  Kinsey is majoring in Sports Medicine.

Adam Velez is a Senior at Gardner-Webb University in Boiling Springs where he is Men’s Discipleship Coordinator.  He is also a member of Mountain View Baptist Church of Hickory, NC.   This is Adam’s third year serving alongside Southwinds Church.  Adam is a gifted musician and soccer player.

Denise Shirley is a Freshman at North Greenville University in South Carolina where she is a member of the Ladies Golf Team.  She is a member of Mountain Creek Baptist Church of Greenville, SC.   Denise has been a part of the summer team for four years, and this is her first full summer with us.

Please pray for these young adults who are giving up their entire summer to serve Christ.  Pray for each of these as they are seeking God’s will for their futures and how they will continue to answer God’s call on their lives.

Away in a Manger – Presented by Southwinds Church Kids

Southwinds Church children presents “Away In a Manger” on Sunday, December 13, 2009.  Over 30 children participated in the program this year.  Despite the brutally cold temperatures and snow, these children were able to share the true meaning of Christmas, the joy of the birth of Jesus Christ.

This Sunday, Southwinds Church broke their highest attendance record with 118 attendees. 

“Go!  Tell It on the Mountain” was the opening song, a favourite of the Southwinds Church children.
