Canada 150 was one for the history books. For 3200 Vancouverites, it was a symphony of praise for God's faithfulness and a time of intercessory prayer for our nation and a visible expression of unity in the church. Hosted by Pastor Giulio Gabelli from Westwood Community Church and Laura Lynn Tyler Thompson of 700 Club, the evening began with a rousing rendition of O Canada followed by an uplifting set led by Worship Central. The program included a solo violonist, dance troupe and choir. Pastor Dave Koop from Coastal Church delivered the message and the evening concluded with prayer for Canada and Vancouver.

Thank you to our supporting churches for getting the word out to your congregation and neighbours. We look forward to our next Voices Together!
