Michelle Elsasser

Thank you for visiting our family biography. We are Kevin, Michelle, Janna and Caleb. We come from Calgary, Alberta where we all lived for most of our lives. Kevin graduated from Rocky Mountain College with a Bachelors of Religious Education. Kevin moved into Social Work, working with individuals caught up in the legal system. He enjoys riveting games of ‘Axis and Allies’ and watching the History Channel, with special affection for WWII. Michelle came from a teaching background working with high needs students as well as Home-schooling families. She enjoys reading, scrapbooking and watching her favorite show ‘Heartland’.

I have been a Christian as long as I can remember, but my faith started to grow roots when I attended a club at the University. It was at this point that I really started to read scripture and apply it to my life.

Ten years later, God planted seed, a call to Officership, in my heart, and like all seeds this one started out small. God continued to water it through circumstances and scripture and my desires slowly became aligned with His.  His call was becoming realized in my life, and since accepting His call last summer, God has been faithful in affirming this decision. I am excited to see what God has in store for me and my family as we train for the journey ahead of us.

Janna is a spirited, creative girl who will be entering grade three in the fall. She loves Hannah Montana, slushies and riding her bike. Caleb is a fun loving six year old who loves video games, computers and a good wrestling match.

We have enjoyed CFOT where we have all been stretched and grown. We are looking forward to the first appointment of our Officership, wherever that might be!

    Dear Friends, Welcome to Peace River. It is a friendly community located in a beautiful valley.We will try to leave everything behind in a good shape. Tell Janna I like to watch Hannah Montana on the TV. This to the great disgust of my wife, Ruth, and my daughter Carmen (who is 22 years). I will give your info to the congregation so they can start praying for you.

    Scriptures for Praying & Living

    February 6, 2012

    Praying Scripture – Leviticus 20:8

    Keep my decrees and follow them.
    I am the LORD, who makes you holy.

    Living Scripture -  Psalm 24:3

    Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD?
    Who may stand in his holy place?
    The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,
    who does not trust in an idol
    or swear by a false god.

  • In Sunday January 22 2012

    CFOT was pleased to welcome special guests Colonels Floyd and Tracey Tidd to our In Sunday on January 22, 2012.
    The focus of their message was “Hope” and cadets and officers shared stories of life situations that may have seemed hopeless but which eventually brought them to know hope.

    This In Sunday was also blessed by the attendance of our Field Based Training cadets – Peck-Ee Wong and Leonard Heng, and  Kim and Darryl Burry (and their family).
