At the time of Hitler’s regime of hatred and division, a friendship was brewing between a blond-haired, blue-eyed Nazi supporter and an African-American man. The world looked on in wonder at this display of true friendship.

The people of the Wiikwemkoong First Nation on Manitoulin Island in Northern Ontario has reacted optimistically to the challenges of the pandemic. Because this community is so close-knit, the crisis of a pandemic, instead of traumatizing them, became a wonderful opportunity for growth. Instead of shutting them down, it opened them up and drew their hearts even closer together and closer to their land and to their Creator.

Canada is currently facing a major epidemic of loneliness and depression — a mental health crisis of massive proportions. Yet, the LORD has provided a lifeline for you — a word of hope and a friendship that is eternal. God wants to work through you to rescue others from their loneliness. Take a look at today’s message and embrace the challenge.

Carolyn Nichol and her family used to dream about taking their favourite vegan recipes on the road and opening a vegan café and having a little nutrition office in the back. So, she I could not believe it when her dream came true. She knew it was only possible because God was completely in charge. Today, The Energy Shack is much more than a whole food, plant-based café; it’s a gathering spot where people experience the secrets to healing and wholeness.

Did you know that there are forty-seven scientifically proven benefits of prayer, including pain relief, reduced risk of death from heart attack or stroke, lessened anxiety and depression, prevention of memory loss, mental decline, and even dementia or Alzheimer’s?

Carolyn Nichol was not always a Certified Holistic Nutritionist.

When she was transformed by the power of God, Carolyn became an agent of healing and wholeness for everyone she met.

In this week’s message, we want you to experience the ruins of the Holy Cross Mission on Manitoulin Island, which was established in 1844. It is a church in the Wiikwemkoong Unceded Reserve, north-eastern Manitoulin Island—a place of much prayer. We hope this short message will encourage you to send us your personal prayer requests and to keep your connection with God alive and well.

The leaders of the scenic Wiikwemkoong First Nation island community decided to put their time, their energy and their money into building the spirits of their youth, and after research they discovered there was one character trait that would make the difference between success and failure, and that character trait was resiliency—the ability of a person to weather the storms of adversity and change. And so, their solution: take the youth on a canoe trip out into the wilderness, and let nature, and the Great Creator of nature teach their children this valuable lesson of resiliency.
