JOINING JESUS IN VICTORIA
Starting a new church. Helping make disciples in a region. Participating in turning up the thermostat of disciple-making in Canada and beyond. Let's partner with Jesus - together.
This is a step of faith for our family and similar to overseas missionaries, this endeavour involves fundraising and partnership because we can't do this alone.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THIS PIONEERING EFFORT
"Having known both Brett & Natalie and Chris, for more than a decade, I was beyond thrilled to hear that they were feeling called by Jesus to join forces in a new church planting endeavour. Both Brett and Chris are among the strongest church planting leaders in Canada, particularly in the areas of genuine discipleship and missional living in and through community. Both Brett and Chris are inspiring followers of Jesus and are transformational leaders with real results in effective multiplication. I look forward to supporting them personally and to leading our church meet them, support them, and enter into mutually beneficial partnership."
- Mike Bidell, Lead Pastor, Comox Pentecostal Church
“I thank God that Brett is saying yes again to a pioneer a new church community in Canada. We need more church planters who want to make and mobilize displaces in cities across Canada. I am struck by his passion to reach people who might have no connection at all to christians or a local church. It’s important in our time to invest in pioneering works like this. That is why our church community is supporting this initiative through our church planting funds.”
- Jason Ballard, Lead Pastor, The Way Church Vancouver. Founder, The Pastorate.
"Brett and Natalie are incredibly gifted and experienced leaders. They are proven to be Spirit-led, mature, and wise in how they engage everyday mission, church planting, leadership development, equipping and shepherding the souls of believers. I fully trust them both and gladly submit myself to their leadership."
