Speaking Up with Boldness Danielle was unusually quiet this particular Tuesday morning at the Conflict Group. The rest of the girls were engaging quite well with our topic of Bullying. Most of them had participated in the role plays or shared an experience they had, but we had hardly heard a peep from Danielle. As we were wrapping up the group for the week and the girls were getting ready to head back to class, Danielle asks, “Can I say something”?... click here to read more... |

Planted Seeds… Melinda
and her family lived with me for a while. Melinda, 13, was terrified
her mom would be killed when she was drinking on Main St. She wanted
to go look for her if she hadn’t come home by nightfall. The first
time, I suggested we pray for her mom’s safety instead. I could
tell Melinda didn’t know what to do with that. I suspect she’s
never been inside a church before or prayed. But as she realized I wasn’t
going to let her go down Main St, she agreed.... |

A House of Prayer for All Nations There
is a large yellow sign that spans the side of our church with this scripture.
Our vision is to be a beacon of hope through prayer and good deeds among
Aboriginal people. ALL NATIONS live in the inner city and attend B.A.F.
The community experiences the church like a lighthouse in the storms
of their life. We have also been known as an “oasis”, a place of refuge,
safety, and refreshment... |

Enlarge, Stretch, Lengthen, & Strengthen As
we look ahead to the next year we’ll need your prayers and support more
than ever. Two and a half years ago CBM shifted their outreach policy.
As a result we were directed to separate ties and they offered us a
three year financial transition package. As of Dec 31, 2009 we will
be financially on our own. Once CBM phased us out we experienced a series
of our churches removing us from their outreach budgets. God has kept
us going and is faithful.... |

I Like the North End So I’m standing there, looking around, and a man on a bike stops in front of me and asks for prayer. I knew the guy since he occasionally came on Sunday and lives in the general area. But more specifically, I knew him for what happened to him a few months before, for you see, his teenage child was tragically murdered and left for dead outside the city. This event was front page news in Winnipeg, and brought to light (again) the stronghold of crime in this town. Numerous headlines hit close to Bethlehem, many times too close for comfort. I hope I never get used to it though…click here to read more... |
