2018 Church Leaders Forum with World Vision
2018-05-15 09:30 - 12:30 (America/Toronto) | Bethel Pentecostal Church, 500 Viewmount Dr, Nepean, ON
Do you sometimes feel like your church doesn’t have enough resources or people to make a significant impact? We want to encourage you that your church can have an impact that is exponentially greater than your size and budget!
Each year World Vision Canada is pleased to host a Church Leaders Forum across Canada, and this year we will be in 17 cities from coast to coast with an Ottawa date of May 15th!
We are excited to partner with World Vision to have Keith Stewart, Pastor of Springcreek Church and Author of ‘We Were Wrong’ joining us in Ottawa for: ‘The 5 Conversions of the Church: Waking up to an expansive view of the fullness of the Gospel’.
Join us as we discover how relationships with the world’s most vulnerable people at home and abroad can be catalytic in the transformation of your church. This leadership forum will be packed with challenging teaching, practical examples, and resources to equip you as a leader in the transformation of your church for God’s Kingdom purposes.
The Forum will be in Ottawa on May 15th and we would love to have you join us! You can register here.

Pastors' Quarterly Prayer
2018-06-28 09:30 - 11:30 | One Way Ministries, 89 Auriga Drive, Ottawa, Ontario, K2E 7Z2, Canada
You are invited to join with pastors and Christian leaders from across the NCR to pray for our city. These are times, as leaders, when we join together to call upon God to pour out His Spirit in power on our city, that it would be blessed and transformed for His glory.
As we grow together in corporate prayer, we see this helping to develop a culture of prayer that will increase Kingdom influence in our national capital region and impact our nation and world!

Save the Date - Ottawa Civic Prayer Breakfast
2018-10-26 07:15 - 09:30 | Ottawa Conference and Event Centre, 200 Coventry Road, Ottawa
We are excited to announce the date for 9th Annual Ottawa Civic Prayer Breakfast – 2018.
Date: Friday, October 26th, 2018
Theme: Who is My Neighbour
Location: Ottawa Conference and Event Centre (200 Coventry Rd – Hampton Inn)
The Ottawa Civic Prayer Breakfast (OCPB) committee are meeting and setting the details for this upcoming breakfast, celebrating it’s 9th year.
The OCPB is one of 50 or more city prayer breakfasts held annually across the country. We celebrate under the banner “Who is my neighbour?” because the Scriptures suggest that we love our neighbour as ourselves. (Mark 12:31)
We honour and pray for our Mayor and Councillors because God has allowed them to serve the needs of our constituents and to ensure the prosperity of all who call Ottawa home. Our first responders are indispensable to our daily lives as they serve faithfully and courageously as our fellow citizens who benefit from our prayers to a loving and caring God.
Mark the date in your calendar and watch for more details on the Ottawa Civic Prayer Breakfast website.

NCR Online Prayer Summit for Pastors and Leaders 2021
2021-06-16 - 2021-06-17
Consecrated: For the renewal of all things in Christ Jesus
June 16, 1 – 3:30 pm & June 17, 1 – 3:30 pm (this is a two day event)
Register for each day you are attending.
Jesus, son of the Living God is the ransom by the Father for the redemption of a lost humanity. Being the only broker of peace between God and Man, and Man and Man, he qualifies as the only mediator to renew all things and unite all things.
God is jealous to do this work in us and through us. He has been graciously at work in our hearts over this last, difficult season.
Our invitation to the prayer summit is earnest, because there are deeper, stronger roots we as leaders could be establishing into the Lord. Like the bridesmaids who took along extra oil, we must pray with expectancy and obedience for the future.
In the book of Revelation, God warns the Church of Sardis that they have a reputation for being alive, but they are dead. He goes on to say, strengthen what remains and is about to die. We sense this is an invitation for us to pray and to consecrate ourselves.
Highlights

Join together in heart with pastors and ministry leaders from across the region for this two-day event (1:00 – 3:30 pm each day)
Our speakers will help us dig into the themes described above, so that we can respond individually and corporately
We are excited to offer French translation this year, and look forward to fellowship with our Francophone brothers and sisters
