On Sunday Karlene and I ministered in and with Wesley Chapel FM in the morning, and then with our Japanese FM in the afternoon. These churches are pastored by Pastors Sabrina and Misa respectively. You might think that this would be an opportunity for me to remind us all about our (FMCIC) Biblical understanding of […]
This past weekend the National Ministerial of Education, Guidance and Placement Committee (MEGaP) met at Mount Carmel. These pastors and lay persons from across Canada invested a weekend to pray, discuss, and develop policy about LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT in the FMCIC. MEGaP does not take its job lightly – this was clear as we moved through […]
On Sunday Karlene and I worshiped at Rice Road FM in Welland. We were warmly greeted and it seemed to us that they were doing the same to each other. Hospitality is both a gift that God gives certain people (those gifted with hospitality are the people whose houses you enter and immediately feel like […]
Last week I was in meetings at Mount Carmel with Network Mentors, Network Leaders, NLT and the newly hired Regional and Church Planting Coaches.

Second Sunday of Advent – can you believe that there are only 13 sleeps until Christmas?! Today I prayed for each pastor as they (you) tell the Christmas story in this season. I pray God’s rich anointing on you, and for Holy Spirit to open ears and hearts of those who are present to hear […]
On the first Sunday of Advent, Karlene and I worshiped with the Barrie FM Church [for the first time since we left 7.5 years ago]. We both were excited to be back and we left with our hearts full of joy having experienced dynamic worship and loving church family. We came to learn that a […]
