Brandon Correctional Center May 24 2014

On the 24th of May we went and ministered at the Brandon Correctional Center, It started out as a cloudy day with a little sprinkle of rain as the first group came out, but soon the sun came out and it got HOT.
In past years it has been rainy and cold when we visited BCC, so the sun was a welcome change and we had a great time, we had eleven Christian Light Riders there with eight bikes.

Bruce spoke from Genesis about how Joseph went from being a shepherd boy, to becoming a slave,then in prison to finally being the second most powerful man in Egypt and how through all of the trials and difficulties that he faced, God was always with him and showed him favor in whatever situation Joseph was in.

 120 people heard the message, 16 people were prayed for, 4 people recommitted their lives to Christ and we had 10 salvation's, Praise The Lord. God is Good. One funny thing that happened while we were there; usually the people come out in three separate groups and usually the ladies are in one of the groups but this time they didn't come out with any of the groups, which made us rather sad. Then as we were getting ready to leave the ladies came out for some fresh air, so we received the opportunity to share the gospel with them and one of the ladies gave her life to Christ. God is so good that we had the opportunity to share the word and pray over them. 

Thank You to Chaplin Bernie for organizing this event, and thank you to the corrections officers and to BCC for hosting us again this year, we always leave blessed and Thank You to all of the Christian Light Riders who came and to all those that were praying for us.

Seasons of Refreshing

On May 9-11, 2014 we attended our first big event of the year up in Portage La Prairie. 

Seasons of Refreshing is a way for chapters across Canada to come together and get their spiritual batteries charged up before the season truly begins. Each province hosts their own Seasons with our national evangelist Carlos Hajen and his family coming to show us the direction God has for CMA that year.

Our focus this year was building up your inner strength and putting on your inner Armour so that  when the real enemy (the devil) comes to attack, you are able to deal with him. We had an awesome time of worship and some amazing messages were given by our national evangelist Carlos Hajen.

All in all we had 66 members and guests join us this year, with 3 chapters being represented. This year we also had the honor of having Roger and Rayleen Wilson; Roger is the national evangelist for the North Central Region of the  United States and he shared with us some awesome messages, it was truly a blessing to have them at this years Seasons of Refreshing. 

We want to thank the two worship teams for leading us in great times of worship. A special thank you to Louis and Cindy Quasso for organizing seasons this year and thank you to everyone who helped make this years Seasons a great success and we cannot wait to see what the Lord has in store for us for the rest of the season.
