I’ve been watching the blog of the Wilks Family, in Medicine Hat planting Pathway Church, for probably close on to 6 months now. It has been a fascinating journey with ups and downs, and it’s been a privelege to be an eavesdropper on a church coming into being from nothing.
When I started reading them, they were just a lone family, trying to network and integrate into the community. I read about god contacts, which evaporated it seemed. I read about mission teams coming up from the USA to help them raise awareness and give into the community, and prayer walk. I read about momentum, and discouragement. But now, it looks like they have finally broken through something and are moving toward launch. A worship team is forming, a location for the church is becoming clear, and more and more people in Medicine Hat are jumping on board.
Check them out and celebrate with them. Lift them up in prayer that God blesses their ministry and brings many into the Kingdom through them.
