Our vision: To be a vessel and a blessing of God’s love to the local body of Christ where ever we go helping spark revival in families, businesses, homes, Church congregations leading others to worship the precious Lamb of God from a pure heart ❤️! To truly help others see Jesus and who He really is may it begin with us allowing Christ to fill us completely with no mixture!
It has been quite a journey these past couple of months. We said good bye to our precious friends in Hamilton from Eagleworldwide ministries Pastor Patty and Alex Wallace, Ruthe- who we were renting from and Transformation centre our Church during the past 5 months October 2022- March 5, 2022. We are really appreciative of the love and covering of Dr Russ and Mave Moyer. They are truly special and blessed. We also said goodbye to the amazing Mom’s group in Niagara Falls which brought such life and encouragement to me. My heart was breaking saying goodbye. I knew it wasn’t really good bye but just, “See you in the plan of God!”
The vision I saw when I was helping with worship was a wave of God’s glory pushing out the darkness from Hamilton, Ontario through out Canada and USA. I felt I heard the Lord saying you can be apart of this outpouring if you just position yourself on His surf board – which is Jesus. Stay low and stay humble on Jesus just like a surfer would do as they are getting ready to catch that wave. The wave is His glory, faith working by love. The surfboard is Jesus.
Pastors Patty and Alex prayed for us and blessed as we stepped out on our journey with the end goal heading toward our mission to our first Nations brother’s and sister’s in BC surrounding areas particularly Tsaykehdene, looking for where to make our base in Canada. We even attended a ReSend conference specifically for equipping the body to reach out to the lost. I felt it was prophetic and preparatory to be prayed for – resent back out on the missionfield of Canada/ USA.
We felt to fly out beginning of March to see family, friends and ministry contacts that we had not seen in over 2 1/2 years. God was saying it’s time to connect. We started out with being apart of a conference with our Church family from Langley, BC The River Fellowship with Pastors Paul & Heidi Hughes, that we have been so blessed by connecting with them regularly. The theme of the conference was “Wonderfully Good.”
When I was a missionary in England 20 years ago I remember going to Shefield to hear Isabel and her former husband Ivan speak. They both prophesied over me and one of the words had come to full circle as fast forward 20 years today my husband and I booked the ticket for our flight to BC by faith. The word was, “Many times you will face the red sea and all the doors will seem shut, but go with the gift of faith inside of you and watch God do the impossible.”
I felt like the Israelites as we stepped out with our 3 babies to fly to BC. All the provision came in for our accommodation during the conference and divine appointments as we were blessed to see our friends Keith and Margaret who have been so instrumental in our lives as we have trusted the Lord on this Faith journey as well as Pastors Paul and Heidi. It was so good to be with our River family. We connected with our good friends Brayden, Manuel and Jenna. We were able to visit Anthony’s previous Church Transform in Abbotsford where a move of repentance crying out for revival was the theme. It was amazing to share just a little about the vision we saw of the wave pushing out the darkness. They had also seen something similar too which was encouraging.
As we moved forward by faith, Christian friends of ours Allister and his wife Judy were able to pick us up in Langley. They live at a Christian camp ground in Keefers complete with a worship hall and places for campers to pull up. It was in the mountains with a beautiful view. The kids loved playing outside in the outdoors with the great grandkids of our friends. They had a big trampoline and little playground all set up for them.
It was instrumental to be there in speaking life into what God was doing there. I ministered a little in music and prophesied life over everyone. Anthony shared words of encouragement and visions. A precious older Christian man named Mr. Tom who is a sign and wonder drove us to Williams Lake to see Anthony’s brother Kevin and then onto Prince George where we stayed with Pastors Henry and Jeanie Dunbar.
Mr Tom should have died more then once but had a supernatural encounter with Jesus who said, “It is I.” As he cried out to the Lord to deliver him from a burning fever. Jesus showed up, put his hand on his shoulder and he was instantly healed!
Pastors Henry and Jean Dunbar have been a spiritual Father and Mother to us in many ways. They have believed, loved, fed and prayed for us. This time they graciously opened their home to us for 2 weeks! Pastor Jean being a nurse helped us recover from a cold by feeding us good vitamins C, D and zinc. That cold was gone in a couple of days.
The vision I saw and desire of my heart as we headed to Prince George this past March was we would somehow be able to connect with some of the leaders from Tsaykehdene. Our dear friends Joanne and Albert Belcourt just so happened to be in town. That Saturday morning we saw Joanne and her sister Sherry at Pastors Jean and Henry’s house. This was amazing to connect with these ladies as we had not seen them since 2020. Joanne had a transformation that happened in January 2022 where she decided she was no longer going to serve sin but be 100% surrendered to God. He delivered her from addictions and gave her a desire to become a Pastor for the people at Tsaykehdene. On May 27th, 2023 she become ordained as a Pastor! This is so encouraging as I remember when she shared with me about this last year on messenger.
This exact time we were in Prince George a prophetic conference was organized with a precious minister Ron Lindsay. This was a special time of worship that I was blessed to join in with my violin with Joanne and her husband Albert was there too. I was so excited when they both got blessed with encouraging words of healing/deliverance for Tsaykehdene. My husband Anthony and I were really blessed and encouraged in that night too! God is so good.
We felt to stay longer in Prince George to connect with some more leaders in Prince George and attend Bill and Valerie Taylor’s house Church. Bill and Val have been so instrumental in our lives as well mentoring us with love, meals, babysitting and prayer. These guys are a true Mama and Papa in the Lord. We shared at home Church our journey of faith and what we felt the Lord was doing- it was so precious! Their daughter Megan hosts the church at their house. With the help of Megan’s daughter we were able to go on a date to the mayor’s prayer breakfast! Our good friends Wade and Adrianna blessed us with tickets to go we were so grateful for the love and fellowship!
We were also blessed by business leaders John and Shelly Majors who have sowed into the Chartrands for years. We were thankful to see them and reconnect. We met for a meal and then Shelly took the kids & me for a nature walk! There was still snow in April We had a fabulous time.
We transitioned from Prince George April 6 in our rental Chrysler Pacifica mini van after attending an Easter Celebration supper remembering what Christ did, at The Well Church. I joined in with my violin with the worship team there and was blessed to be a blessing!
We sensed to still head to Edmonton and connected with Randy and Jacquelyn Mass as well as Kim and Nate VanLochem. Kim and Nate had us all over to their lovely home for an Easter dinner. I felt I was suppose to bring my violin to play over Jacquelyn who was needing healing. The presence of God came so strong and Holy Spirit took over. Two hours later we were picking ourselves off the floor after much singing, holy laughter, prophesying, feet washing and repentance- Daddy God did a work in us! We were all changed, refreshed and encouraged! The next day we attended their Church with them and Alexander somehow made a surprise appearance with the kid’s Easter program which really blessed me.
We also got to see some family in Edmonton which was a blessing
We flew back to Niagara Falls April 15 packed up our basement suite and moved into our new to us 1997 Mallard trailer home to prepare to drive across the border through Niagara Falls, Rainbow bridge. We believed Daddy God for a truck and found a 2012 Chevy Truck.
It was exciting for the kids and they had alot of fun moving into their own bunk beds. They put up their toys claiming their spot. I am not sure how we managed to downsize and get our things into the 29ft trailer home but God! He helped us move out of our precious basement suite at Ruthe’s in Fonthill, Ontario. We have been on a faith journey and what I have learned from it I wouldn’t trade it for the world. We can trust the process that Father God has us in. We can step out in the freedom of His love, His care and protection knowing that good work that He began in us He will complete.
PHILIPPIANS 1:6 “He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ” (Phil. 1:6)
Romans 8:38-39 “And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
We crossed the border May 1st into Niagara Falls to the USA to attend Mom and Dad’s 50th Wedding Anniversary in Maryland! It was amazing to see our family and connect with my (Cathy) childhood friends. I am so appreciative of my Mom and Dad who have stood by my journey since birth and now married they have been such faithful steady and encouragers to stand by Anthony and I no matter what. This is the gift of family they love us no matter what we are going through and they believe. We have definitely been in a process for sure.
We felt while in the States to visit our family of God in the South. We had some divine setbacks in Milton, FL while visiting our good friends the Imperials who are such encouragers and lovers of God. Our truck ended up needing repairs which extended our time visiting the south. We had some special times of worship and fellowship together!
We visited our dear friends Dale and Gail in Pensacola, FL and were also blessed to stay at their Revival house with our trailer home. They hosted many guests during Brownsville revival days. Anthony was blessed with some work with Dale. I remember showing up with van loads of students to visit the revival and stay at the Revival house. We shared words of encouragement and got to join in with prayer at Brownsville Church. We got to see my dear friend Mercedes and her children all grown up.
Good memories flooded my heart as we visited the property of Brownsville. We also visited other friends in Pensacola from a precious Church I use to go to House of Prayer for All Nations. It had been over 6 years since the last time I saw them and they were in their new building!
We then headed to Robertsdale, AL and were blessed to visit Church of His Presence. It was a blessing to see everyone there. We also got to spend a week in Mississippi visiting good friends Pastors Hardy and Jill and Mama Hazel. It was a blessing to pray and worship with these guys. Southern Gate has always been an inspiration to us! We connected with our dear friends Mama Faye and Monica in Ft. Deposit, AL/ Montgomery, AL.
Sometimes it is good to go back to our roots to remember who we are in God and what we are called to do.
We have been getting tested in every area to stay in His love no matter what as our truck needed repairs again in Pelham, AL. Currently we are staying at an RV CAMP ground regrouping, working and seeking God. All glory to God. We definitely have not arrived but we have left the dock and are committed to the life of Christ flowing out of us. To know Him is the greatest prize of life. Thank you for all who have been in prayer for us and who have supported financially the work of God in us! We are committed to His high calling to be a mouth piece for His glory and a blessing.
