Kamloops Alliance Church exists to know Jesus and make Him known.
Christ Centred
Our foundation is the person and work of Jesus Christ; He is the nucleus of the “KAC atom” around which every other strategic directive centres. To that end, every initiative, goal and dream at KAC is designed to be carried out with Jesus, for Jesus and because of Jesus.

COMMUNITY
As a response to Christ’s call to intimate community with him and others, we desire to be a self-sacrificing and embracing community to all people.
OUR DREAM
• is to promote hospitality as a core practice – both corporately and individually
• is that KAC would be known for creating community, and not just consuming it, where our times together are marked by mutual encouragement, confession, and accountability
• is that families would be supported and encouraged to play a central role in the vitality and health of our community
Lifegroups are powerful because they allow you to experience Jesus in a way you usually can’t in your day-to-day life. Being able to come together with other believers and dig into the Scriptures, pray for each other…laugh, and eat together- it’s truly beautiful. An incredible picture of what God longs for fellowship to be.
