  • We have a dream. – Seeing the earth filled with His Glory (His family, sons and daughters of the King of Kings).

Our heart is to see Jesus, through His people (His Church), ever-present in the midst of the all peoples. This is the message of the incarnation. Practically we describe this as “a vibrant family of Jesus Christ” in close reach culturally and geographically of every person on the continent.

God blessed them: “Prosper! Reproduce! Fill Earth! Take charge! Gen 1:28 (THE MESSAGE)

Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth . Gen 9:1 (NIV)

But thanks be to God, who always leads us in His triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. 2 Cor 2:14 (NAS)

Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you. 2 Thess 3:1 (NIV)

  • We are a missionary band. Releasing Missionary bands – Extending His Family.

We function as those who would give their lives away for the sons and daughters God is giving us the privilege of walking with. As sons and daughters together before God, our heart is to live in God’s deeper delight.

We are joining Jesus in His mission to prepare a people, His family, to live in intimate relationship with the Father and with each other forever. (It is the desire of the Father’s heart to be in intimate relationship with His sons and daughters and to prepare them for life everlasting in His Presence.)

We feel led to join our hearts with those called to release the multitudes to live in the Presence of the Living King. The “birthing of Kingdom families” is an outflow of the natural life and joy we live out daily in the midst of the Father and His Family.
I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it. Matt 16:18 (NLT)

Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Matt 9:38 (NIV)

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Luke 4:18-19 (NIV)

After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. Luke 10:1 (NIV)

  • We are in a battle. – Learning to live in His Power and Authority.

There is one who seeks to keep us from accomplishing our mission. He has set himself against God and His anointed. But his battle is futile; The Life Giver has destroyed his strongholds and taken his kingdom captive. We now live to appropriate that victory. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10 (NIV)

They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings-and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers .” Rev 17:14 (NIV)

He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. Matthew 10:1 (NIV)

  • We have an initial assignment. – Canada. We are currently located in Alberta Canada.

We feel called to extend the family of God from coast to coast. We also are believing God for a partnership with our brothers and sisters across our nation and in other parts of North America and the world.

… For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea. Isa 11:9 (NIV)

For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD , as the waters cover the sea. Hab 2:14 (NIV)
