MANITOUWADGE, ON – Saturday, June 4th, Bethany Pentecostal Assembly invited residents to join them at the community ball field, behind the Recreation Centre, where a large tent had been erected earlier in the week for worship, prayer and fellowship. The local Christian assembly had been promoting appearances by evangelist Chuck Price for many weeks and Pastor Gary Burt was pleased with the community’s response.
Many gathered for daily evening meetings at 7pm, continuing through Tuesday, as well as a Sunday morning meeting. Price, on a tour of Northwestern Ontario, will end this first visit after his June 7th appearance scheduled to return again June 16th – 19th. The second visit will include a Youth Night, Friday June 17th with a free barbecue starting at 5:30pm followed. The second visit will feature a new band, as Kevin Rogers and his band take the stage. Once again the Sunday morning meeting will be held at 10:30am while the evening meetings will begin at 7pm each night.
Pastor Gary, as he is more commonly referred to by his congregation, emphasized that these events are open to the public “Everyone is welcome, we are not looking to fill our church per say, we just want to help people in their lives, speak into their lives and do anything we can for them” said Burt explaining that the events, including the youth night and free barbecue were gifts from the Bethany Pentecostal Assembly to the community and they hoped everyone would come out to enjoy them.
