Decommissioning service in Craig

CRAIG, Alta. – On June 23, 2024, King of Kings Lutheran Church held a special service of decommissioning at their former location in Craig (formerly Christ Lutheran Church).

The building has been vacant for six years as the result of the congregational decision to worship full time in Dickson, Alberta, following the amalgamation of the two former congregations.

Regional Pastor Robert Mohns brought greetings from Lutheran Church–Canada, and a brief history was shared by Deb Allen. At the conclusion of the service, furnishings were ceremoniously removed and transported to the Dickson church, where they will find new homes. About eighty people attended the service and most gathered at King of Kings in Dickson for a catered meal to conclude the afternoon.

The congregation gives all the glory to God, and thank Him for the countless good works that came out of that place over the many years of its service. They also thank Him for His outpouring of blessing on the new King of Kings congregation.

Les Heron, Council Chairman
