It is one thing to talk about the spiritual disciplines. It is a different matter entirely to practice them. So with a mixed bag of expectations, from dread to delight, the Prayer Warriors spent a day in silence at St. Benedict’s Retreat and Conference Centre north of Winnipeg as part of the spiritual formation program.

I’m probably taking great liberties in my rendition of the outcome, but to paraphrase, “Tracy, you will have to ride the bus before we can commission you”. And so [...]

They were a hit as they marched for miles and played their hearts out. Here are some of the pictures from the [...]

It isn’t all work at CFOT. Sometimes cadets take the opportunity to kick back and from time to time even hang out with some interesting characters. It’s all part of Community at CFOT, and while he’s a little camera shy, Cadet Andre’ Pardy took the pics. Everyone had a great time watching our hometeam, the [...]

We’re delighted to continue our coverage on Canadian officers serving in overseas appointments. Meet Majors Brian and Rosalie Peddle, DCs for the Northern Division in New Zealand, Fiji, and Tonga Territory. In the following excerpt, Brian and Rosalie invite us to share with them a little of what their life is like in this most beautiful part of the world.
Praying Scripture – Micah 6:8-10
He has shown you,
O mortal, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Living Scripture - Psalm 25:3
No one who hopes in you
will ever be put to shame.
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).
