Speaker's Bio
Lynda MacGibbon
If Lynda had to pick only two passions, they would be writing and seeing people thrive. She loves working with God to weave all the aspects of a person’s life into an abundant and full life. One of her favourite quotes comes from an ancient Christian, St. Irenaeus: “The Glory of God is a person fully alive.” This weekend, through stories, Scripture, conversation, and reflection, she will help us consider what it means for each of us to thrive.
Lynda has been with InterVarsity for 18 years, presently as the Vice-President of People and Culture. Prior, Lynda worked as a newspaper editor and reporter. Her other passions are friends and family (including her nieces — she has nine — and two great-nephews), mornings in prayer and reflection as well as lively conversations with creative people. Lakes, kayaks, photographing nature and reading are all things that help her thrive.
Using her life experience, Lynda has written a book called, “My Vertical Neighbourhood”, based on her experiences connecting with neighbours in her condominium.
Worship Leader's Bio
Meet our Worship Leader: Monika with a “K”
Growing up with the dream of being a performer on stage, the dream didn’t become reality until late 1980, when Monika started singing in a little Irish Pub for open mike once a week. She sang with musician Billy Harper quite often and within the year, began doing gigs on her own. She has released 5 singles, including Until Tonight, Fantasy and I Forgot to Tell My Heart. Monika has been the recipient of several awards from the Country Music Association of Calgary, as well as being named for a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Alberta Men and Women of Country Music.
Monika has a heart for God and often leads worship at her church and has accepted invitations to lead at other churches. She has also performed at cowboy churches all over central Alberta. She has been teaching singing and guitar to young musicians in Alberta for 25 years and has a studio in Carstairs. She loves to share what she has learned over the years with up-and-coming artists.
