Our Story
Our Church's History
In the early 1980s, Rev. E. S. McKeen and his family moved from eastern Canada to Calgary to plant this church, what was then called
Bethel United Pentecostal Church.
The church first met in downtown Calgary in the YWCA, and then they moved to the DQ on 36st. As the Lord blessed the church, moved to Airways Industrial Park northeast of the city.
Rev. McKeen became overseer of the work again in 2007 and passed on to be with the Lord in May 2019.
