Church Profile:
HISTORY: In 1964, Rev. A. H. Orthner, district superintendent of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, as well as Pastor Walter Boldt of Saskatoon visited Prince Albert in hopes of beginning an Alliance Church in the city. By 1965, the early Alliance Church had begun.
After many rental properties, two new builds, and the addition of the gym and staff offices, Prince Albert Alliance Church has called the corner of 28th Street West and 6th Ave West home since June 23, 1974.
As a congregation that started with 18 faithful attenders, PAAC has grown to welcome an average attendance of 280 congregants each Sunday morning.
Prince Albert Alliance Church is a member of The Alliance Canada, belonging to a group of approximately 420 local Canadian churches. As a denomination, we aim to be Christ-centred, Spirit empowered, and Mission-focused in everything that we do.
OUR VISION: We believe that God is calling the Prince Albert Alliance Church to be a church family where our desire is, “To see lives transformed through Jesus Christ in our church and community”.
PRESENT DAY: Prince Albert Alliance Church, is a welcoming community for the whole family. The staff are dedicated to get to know the congregation and do their best to make sure no one slips through the cracks.
There are countless opportunities at PAAC for young and old to get involved and find a place to belong, including kids and youth programs, adult ministries, community groups, Sunday school classes, and many more.
With over 200 volunteers that give up their time during the week, in 30+ ministry programs, we realize that they are an integral to the PAAC team. We couldn’t minister effectively without them.
