❤️❤️ HAPPY NEW YEAR 2026 ❤️❤️

Well folks, that about wraps up our 2025, and we didn’t make it here without a few lumps in the road…. growing pains, accumulated grief, disappointment,A pitbull attacking one of our volunteers, countless overdose reversals….. but…..but…..

The Lord ALWAYS comes through and we rejoice in all of the success this year, the lessons learned, friends made, ministry growth, families fed, detox/ treatment placements, addictions broken, chains snapped and lives restored.

We say good bye to our friends who lost their lives and hold them close to our hearts as we look ahead to the lives we can reach in 2026.

So many families are affected by addiction, and our hope and prayer is that the Lord will radiate in the lives torn to pieces- and bring complete healing and restoration in those suffering.

Please reach out if you-or someone you know-is suffering in addiction.. ❤️❤️🤗

We look forward to seeing what God will do next! 🤗🙌👏❤️

I am sure of this, that he who started a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

As most of you know, we don’t rely on government grants or funding to run the program side of our ministry-we operate on donations that folks make through our website as they feel led to.❤️❤️

We spend a lot each month in fuel picking up donations to feed approx 150 low income families each month.

we also do community outreaches and we are on a contract with Salvation Army ($750 a month) and they provide 8 amazing community meals (approx 500 individual meals) a month for our unhoused and vulnerable community members.

We also have insurance expenses, outreach supplies etc…the list goes on and on….

The reason for this post is to say a very special thank you to all of our community members that have pulled together and helped us stay in motion the last year and also made it possible for us to keep operating! We use your financial contributions to keep us in motion ❤️❤️❤️🙌🙌👏👏👏

I’ve had a few messages and phone calls the last week; asking how to make a donation and if an income tax receipt can be issued??? The answer is YES👍 ! We can issue tax receipts for your donations and they will be printed and sent out very soon…

Also, I will post a link below that Will send you to our website fo those who may be still wondering.

Again… thank you so much for believing in our ministry and walking along side us in this journey, we’re hoping to grow in this new year and reach more people so we need lots of prayers please 🤗❤️

❤️❤️MERRY CHRISTMAS❤️❤️

The joy of seeing people become emotional when they are touched by another persons kindness- is the reward we get- knowing that the Lord is starting to change they’re hearts, and our wish is: that the flicker of hope begins to grow into a flame that propells them into a new life. healed.

Many hearts affected today because of our communities kindness, and we are so grateful that everyone participated in making this day happen-and run smoothly.

Grace church hosted us at 11 am and all 280 stockings(WOW) got sorted, and 160 meals dished and loaded up for delivery-in under a hour 😱😱😱

We established zones for our 6 delivery crews to tackle and off they went to spread some Christmas cheer!! 🙌👏👏👏

Some teams ran out of food quick, and others had a bit longer of a time out-but we went to all the known locations then to the shelters then recovery homes-everyone got a stocking that we could find.

There were many tears today, from our unhoused friends-and our volunteers ❤️❤️❤️

A huge thank you to Arvy- Golden Leaf Catering , Karen for hosting us at grace church, all to all our volunteers that really stepped up today-you guys rock!!

Now the rest of the evening-we relax and pray that someone will decide to go to treatment and save their lives ❤️❤️❤️

So much love!! ❤️❤️❤️

What a day!! What a day!! ❤️❤️❤️

Yesterday when we picked up the stockings from Blackwood home hardware and I was told a beautiful story and I thought I would share with you guys 🤗

A lady who lost a loved one not too long ago to addiction/overdose saw our stocking program this year and in memory of her loved one, she wanted to create a stocking so someone will feel loved this Christmas.

Her and her partner walked up to the bin in the store, with tears flowing, and put the stocking in the basket and shared some memories and relived some happy moments from the past.. 😭💔❤️

See…. Addiction will effect not just the one locked in it, but the whole family of the loved one-and then some…

I’m pretty sure there were many folks who placed a stocking in the basket for a loved one, and my hope and prayers are that you will receive some healing this year, and you hold onto the good memories of your loved ones.. ❤️❤️❤️

A sincere Thank you to all of our community members who participated in this years stocking program. You guys have outdone yourselves and we thank you for trusting us with the responsibility to get these out there to people who need them..

Last but certainly not least… Blackwood Building centre…. Bruce, Abe, Lisa and Krista-you have been like family for years and you guys hosting this for us really means a lot…. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

Yesterday we got to see these amazing little hockey players - U11 A1 Abbotsford hawks, Ages 9-10 celebrate in their victory of the tournament they just finished playing.

Way to go guys!!!

After the game, they had time for a quick picture when they presented the stockings they made.

To the parents of these little guys: We thank you for taking the time to go out of your way to build some beautiful stockings for us to hand out to our unhoused friends this year. You guys all did an amazing job!! Thank you all so much. ❤️❤️

And last but not least, thank you Karey, for partnering with us 5 years in a row now and making this all happen. You are appreciated 🤗

Mike and Linda have been working with us for a while, they have been managing one of our food drops when we do food recovery and they volunteer hours each week to make sure many families are fed and order is in place.

They also work for Sparrow and help manage the emergency shelters for our unhoused folks in extreme weathers, and bring love and grace to those who are suffering.

Lastly, Linda and Mike have worked for months quietly, to save, buy and create these 50+ stockings that were loved into compilation. They are phenomenal and so much time and energy went into these and we thank you guys for everything you do to help our community 👏👏🙌❤️❤️❤️❤️

Our teams on Christmas day are going to have alot of work ahead of themselves handing all these out 😆🙌❤️❤️❤️

When you stop and observe how much work someone puts in to make someone else (who is suffering) feel loved and special…. It really can change your own life..

This journey has been incredible for me to watch the community spirit come alive this time of year, and the outpouring of kindness has been astounding so far.

I was honoured to attend the dream school Canada where my- Korean exchange student-friends whipped up 50 beautiful stockings, for us to hand out on Christmas Day to our unhoused friends.

The Korean folk paid out of their own pockets to buy the gifts inside, and spent a lot of time writing cards and notes of encouragement…👏🙌❤️

None of this would have been possible without Soyoung and our in house stylist/barber Karen building this project to do- so we say a huge thank you ❤️

The great stuff is just beginning and we’re going to keep posting on here our adventures-so stay tuned 🤗🙌🫶🏼
