This group of students from Strathcona Christian School braved a very wet Sunday night to distribute sandwiches, hot chocolate and hygiene packs to those living on the streets of Victoria.

Your value is not based on what you have done, but in the fact that God created you as a person of great worth! Don't settle for anything less. ❤️

In the last week, we have celebrated Canada Day & America's July 4th. But today we want to take this opportunity to celebrate one of our Western Canadian YWAM'ers, Lima Nanai. Some of us have heard Lima's testimony of seeing Buffalo herds being restored to First Nation communities in Saskatchewan. Recently, 100 Huntley Street ran a story on the Buffalo gift to the Cote First Nation: https://youtu.be/hlka817r_gE

We salute & honour you Lima & while we are watching this video, please pray for Lima & his team, & that God would be glorified through the multiplication of these herds.

History was made in Canada today!

Statistics Canada earlier predicted the country would hit the 40-million mark just before 3 p.m. on Friday, and it did so with just minutes to spare.

Please join us in praying for this wonderful man & his family!

Sending our love and prayers to Loren & Darlene❤️🙏

From Darlene Cunningham;

”Dear Friends...
Thank you so much for your prayers for Loren and his health. As you know, the doctors did a biopsy on some very slow-growing nodules in his lungs earlier this month, when they got large enough to biopsy. They turned out to be cancerous, which led us back to Honolulu for a full body scan on February 22nd. The results from that scan have just come in, revealing that there is extensive cancer in Loren’s lungs, bones and lymph system (stage 4 cancer).
One miracle is, the cancer cells have not spread to his brain. Another is that Loren is able to be quite active at this time!

We believe with all our hearts that these miracles are an answer to the prayers of the Saints. Everything about this case has been unusual. The oncologist said that usually, lesions in the lungs grow very quickly; Loren’s have grown very slowly. We don’t know whether that will be characteristic of the growth of the other lesions as well? But what we DO know is that he is in God’s hands.

Revelation has been flowing for Loren like never before – and that is saying something! The joy of God’s dream of getting the Bible orally into every mother tongue on earth is the passion that fuels him every day, all day!
A Brazilian YWAMer told Loren that when he went to pray for him, he felt God say “don’t pray for health – pray for what I’m going to do through him that’s even greater than the start of YWAM!”

We have already decided as a family to prioritize Loren’s QUALITY of life over trying to extend the length of time, through chemo or other treatments that could reduce his energy and productiveness.

He has Jesus, family, friends and vision. Who could ask for more? And all of them continue on the other side…

Thank you for your continuing love and prayers through the season ahead.
Love and blessings,
Darlene

P.S. Loren is unable to keep up with the overflow of love and prayers via texts and emails being sent to him in this season. Please send your comments and responses to our email address and I will make sure they get to him: [email protected]”

Had this team from Phil & Jennie Gaglardi Academy with us for 2 days this week. They are real troopers and hard workers. This photo was taken after we'd been giving out sandwiches and hot chocolate in the pouring rain!
