John and Kate and their 3 children moved to Canada in 2019 from the UK, where they had planted and led Hope Church, Harrogate. They’re enjoying family time in their new home, making the most of all the activities available on the North Shore. They are passionate about building community in Ambleside where every person, from the youngest to the oldest can encounter God and his incredible purpose for their life. They are also giving themselves to raising up other leaders to lead similar communities where they live.

Mark and Katrina moved to Canada in 2020 with their 4-year-old Monty. They are loving the North Shore life, especially exploring the forests and mountain slopes on foot, bike and ski! With a heart to serve the community in which God has placed them, they long to see their friends and neighbours experience the supernatural love of Jesus. They enjoy welcoming people into their home to share meals and fun times together and build relationships that embody God’s love.

Courtney and Mac live in the Lonsdale area of North Vancouver. Amongst other things, they both enjoy hiking, exploring the outdoors, and nature photography. They are passionate about forming authentic friendships and Christ-centered community. Avid travellers, they also have a heart for the various nations that are represented in Lonsdale and are excited to see what God wants to do in this beautiful and vibrant neighbourhood.

Dom, Lucy and three-year-old Elsa-Rose emigrated here in October 2020 from Yorkshire in England. They enjoy creative hobbies such as painting and all kinds of sports but by far their biggest passion is people. They love nothing more than striking up deep and authentic relationships with people from all walks of life and can’t wait to get to know the people of Horseshoe Bay. Having witnessed God’s incredible love time and again in their own lives, they are passionate about sharing the love of Jesus with others.

We would love to hear from you if you would like to join any of our communities.
