The third installment in our Jeremiah Series is available on iTunes for download. To hear more from Phil, check out his website.

God calls some people who would never imagine in their wildest thoughts that they would be Salvation Army officers. Captains Deb and Jimmy Van derHeyden share their story through scripture, story and song, telling of God’s amazing Grace. Jimmy and Deb have just been appointed and are enroute to Quesnel B.C. as Corps Officers.

You can tell a lot about a community by watching. Looking at the neighbourhood stores, how resident’s tend their homes, what kinds of cars are parked on the street… it’s a bit like being a detective. And that is what faculty and staff from CFOT are doing every week in a Winnipeg community where The Salvation Army’s Multicultural Family Centre is located.

It was the first time in over 20 years that a sitting General visited Winnipeg, and CFOT is thrilled to offer you his address to cadets, officers and those who proclaim the gospel. In what proved to be a stirring message on this notable visit, General Shaw Clifton offered two words of inspiration to his congregation at the CFOT chapel, “Vision and Verdict”.
Praying Scripture – 1 Chronicles 16:29
“Ascribe to the LORD
the glory due his name;
bring an offering and come before him.
Worship the LORD
in the splendour of his holiness.”
Living Scripture - Hebrews 12:8-9
If you are not disciplined
(and everyone undergoes discipline),
then you are illegitimate children
and not true sons.
Moreover, we have all had human fathers
who disciplined us
and we respected them for it.
How much more should we submit
to the Father of our spirits and live!
Praying Scripture – 1 Chronicles 16:29
“Ascribe to the LORD
the glory due his name;
bring an offering and come before him.
Worship the LORD
in the splendour of his holiness.”
Living Scripture - Daniel 6:10
Now when Daniel learned
that the decree had been published,
he went home to his upstairs room
where the windows opened toward Jerusalem.
Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed,
giving thanks to his God,
just as he had done before.
This Easter CFOT Cadets and Officers had the privilege of participating in a variety of Easter activities and services at Corps in Alberta.
Small goups of Cadets/Officers participated in all aspects of the Easter Services and were also able to spend some valuable time with youth groups. In Calgary tradition, some of our CFOT folks were “white hatted” (see photos below). A wonderful time of worship, outreach and fellowship was had by all.
A big thank you to the Alberta Divsion for hosting us! You have been so gracious to us in sharing your ministries, your homes and your hearts with us…
