Welcome To The Atlin Family Church Website.

We’re so glad we connected. I believe God has a purpose for every connection, and I leave it in His hands as to what you receive today.

My name is Dale McDonald. I co‑pastor Atlin Family Church with my wife, Rena Mae. We’re located in Atlin, British Columbia, Canada.

We’re excited to share that we are now meeting locally, in addition to the Online Ministry. We began as an online ministry and are now taking the next step by starting a local church here in Atlin. You’re welcome to join us right in our cabin, which also serves as our recording studio and church office.

We meet on Sundays at 10:00 a.m. MST at 204 - 4TH Street, Atlin, BC.

You might be wondering what Atlin Family Church is really like. The answer is simple: we’re just normal people—like your neighbors or family members—who are searching for the truth about God. We want biblical truth without churchy language or unnecessary fluff. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ll fit right in.

On Sundays, we gather around the table, discuss God’s Word, enjoy coffee or tea, and often share a meal afterward. We simply do what works best for the group.

I believe God led you to connect with us for a reason, and I encourage you to pray about whether He is leading you to begin connecting with Atlin Family Church.

One of the most misunderstood things about God is what He thinks about us. God loves you. He’s not mad at you or disappointed in you. That truth was life‑changing for me. I had to forgive myself so I could begin growing in Him.

I need to know that God loves me, and I need to hear it often. Like everyone else, I’ve done things I regret. None of us are perfect—yet God loves us just as we are. His love can’t be earned; it’s a free gift.

Romans 3:23–24 tells us that everyone has sinned and fallen short of God’s standard, yet God freely makes us right through Jesus Christ. By removing sin, He restored the relationship so we can come to Him freely. That’s good news, and there’s no reason to run from God anymore.

Many people are waiting to get their lives in order before turning back to God or reconnecting with church. The truth is, you’ll never reach a perfect place on your own. Our nature doesn’t change unless we ask God to change it.

When we are born again, God begins transforming us into the image of Christ. Being a Christian means becoming Christ‑like. Our eternity and our nature are transformed when we accept His love.

Once we receive that love, we can begin developing the personal relationship God has wanted with us from the beginning. Atlin Family Church exists to help you take those steps, understand God’s Word, and walk out that journey together.

We would love to meet you and walk this supernatural journey with you. Thank you for taking the time to listen, and we hope to meet you soon.

Pastor Dale
