🌧️ Rain or shine, the mission remains the same. Y 🌧️ Rain or shine, the mission remains the same. Yesterday, our team stepped into the streets of Calgary in the pouring rain with one purpose: to love people well and share the hope of Jesus. Serve day isn’t just when the weather is perfect. It’s every opportunity God places before us to be His hands and feet, meet people where they’re at, and remind them they are seen, known, and deeply loved. The Gospel isn’t confined to four walls it reaches the streets, the hurting, the forgotten, and every place God calls us to go. 🤍 A Simple Yes. 🌍 Gospel to All Nations. 📖 “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations...” — Matthew 28:19
🤍 The Gospel to All Nations. The mission isn’t con 🤍 The Gospel to All Nations. The mission isn’t confined to one city, one street, or one moment. It’s wherever God opens the door for His love to be shared. Last week, that meant serving in Saskatoon. Tomorrow, it could be somewhere new. As Acts 1:8 reminds us, we are called to be His witnesses from our own communities to the ends of the earth. For us last week, that looked like Calgary, Saskatoon, Regina, and wherever God sends us next. Thank You, Jesus, for every opportunity to love people well, serve with open hearts, and share the hope of the Gospel. 📖 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses...” Acts 1:8
🤍 A Look Behind the Mission Sometimes ministry is 🤍 A Look Behind the Mission Sometimes ministry isn’t planned. This Father’s Day, our team came together to prepare sandwiches before heading out for an impromptu time of outreach. Every sandwich made was an opportunity to care for someone. Every conversation was an opportunity to remind someone they are seen, valued, and deeply loved. We believe ministry isn’t confined to a schedule or a building. It’s found in ordinary moments, willing hearts, and people who choose to say “yes” when the opportunity to serve comes. Thank you to everyone who gave their time to love our community well. 🙌 Are you ready to say yes? Tap the Link Tree in our Bio to join us ♥️

🤍 A Look Behind the Mission Outreach starts long 🤍 A Look Behind the Mission Outreach starts long before we hit the streets. Every other week, our team spends time sorting clothing donations that will help serve members of our community in the weeks ahead. Every hanger, every folded shirt, every box sorted is an act of love and a reminder that ministry often happens behind the scenes. It’s easy to celebrate the moments we see, but so much of ministry is built in the preparation, the serving, and the simple yes of those willing to show up. Thank you to everyone who continues to serve with open hands and open hearts. 🙌
🤍 Our Week in Review This past week was filled wi 🤍 Our Week in Review This past week was filled with opportunities to serve, grow, and share the love of Jesus. From sorting clothing donations and preparing food, to gathering for Bible study and serving beyond Calgary, we’re reminded that ministry isn’t just an event it’s a way of living. Thank you to every volunteer, donor, prayer partner, and supporter who helps make this possible. As we head into a new week, our prayer remains the same: that people would encounter the hope, love, and grace of Jesus. 🙌 Where would you like to be involved?
🤍 Come back home. Every week, we meet people from 🤍 Come back home. Every week, we meet people from all walks of life, but the message remains the same: You are seen. You are loved. You are not forgotten. We serve a Shepherd who leaves the ninety nine to search for the one, and His heart is still pursuing people today. If you needed a reminder, this is it: He hasn’t stopped looking for you. 📖 Luke 15:4
Ministry often starts with a simple yes. A yes to Ministry often starts with a simple yes. A yes to showing up. A yes to serving. A yes to loving people where they’re at. A yes to being used by God in ways we may never fully see. We’re so grateful for every volunteer who continues to say yes week after week. Through every conversation, prayer, act of kindness, and moment of service, God is at work. It’s a privilege to serve our community together. 🙌 “Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬
🙏 Prayer is at the heart of our ministry. Every we 🙏 Prayer is at the heart of our ministry. Every week, we meet people from all walks of life, and one thing we hear again and again is that everyone is carrying something. A burden. A hope. A fear. A prayer. As a team, we’d be honoured to stand with you in prayer this week. Drop your prayer request below or send us a private message. No request is too big or too small. “For where two or three gather in My name, there am I with them.” — Matthew 18:20 How can we pray for you today? 🤍
Thank You, Jesus, for such a powerful night of fel Thank You, Jesus, for such a powerful night of fellowship and iron sharpening iron. I’m so blessed to be surrounded by amazing people who are passionate about their relationship with Christ. We all come in carrying different things , some broken, hurting, stressed, anxious, lonely, depressed, or sick, but we all come seeking the same Jesus. The Healer. The Redeemer. The One who moves mountains, breaks chains, restores hearts, and continually transforms lives. Thank You, Jesus, that You see each one of us right where we are, and that nothing is impossible for You. “For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” — Matthew 18:20 ESV

Wow… God is so good. What an incredible week. We Wow… God is so good. What an incredible week. We had the opportunity to go around and minister, pray over people, and watch people give their lives to Christ. It is always powerful when we get to pray with someone and invite God to take the steering wheel of their life and lead them in a new direction. But as amazing as that is, what truly inspires me is when we get to see the Lord’s hand at work right before our eyes — melting mountains like wax. “The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.” — Psalm 97:5 ESV We got to see this with Kyle. The Lord saw Kyle give his life to Him. We got to see Kyle get baptized by Cody and I as a public declaration of new life in Christ. Then today, we got to see him get into detox. That afternoon, Kyle committed to going into detox, but he had to wait a week. And throughout that week, the Lord kept moving. He got help. He got into a hotel. We were able to get him new clothing and help give him a fresh start. He even won clippers at one of the events we spoke at, so he could get a fresh haircut. Then we were able to speak with his family and friends and help them understand that Kyle needed support. He needed people to walk alongside him. He could not just be left alone for a week while he waited. And then Tanya, his cousin, stepped up to the plate. She let him sleep on her couch and walked beside him through it. At the same time, she also gave her life to Christ, and she has now been actively giving up alcohol for over a week. The Lord is truly moving. There is no greater feeling than being part of something like this and watching God move in people’s lives. I am so grateful for my brother Cody, who organized this trip and allowed me to experience this with him. “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion…” — Philippians 1:6 ESV Thank You, Jesus. All glory belongs to You.
