Court proceedings for GraceLife Church have been put over until the new year.
The decision was made Wednesday morning in a courtroom in Stony Plain, Alta.
The church is charged with violating the Public Health Act by holding over-capacity services against COVID-19 rules in February 2021.
Pastor James Coates also faces a personal charge for his role in hosting crowded services in December 2020.
Last summer, a judge dismissed an application by Coates to have enforcement actions by RCMP and public health inspectors deemed unconstitutional.
Coates is still expected to challenge the constitutionality of COVID-19 health restrictions in general.
