FREEDOM SESSION >
"The harvest is plentiful -- it's also broken!" says Ken Dyck, author of Freedom Session. This realistic assessment calls for a powerful and effective approach to discipleship that also involves deep healing for the inner man. Freedom Session is proving to be that tool for us. The sessions run from September to June, and not only provide good teaching but also a deep sense of belonging through a weekly small group ministry that has a clear and penetrating purpose. Freedom Session produces people who are fit to live with, and people who are fit to become leaders in the church and society.

We strongly support having a house of prayer in our nation's capital, and a few of us have been there to pray.
Off The Map >
This is by far and away one of the best resources for postmodern evangelism that we've seen. They embrace an approach called OA, which stands for Ordinary Attempts, another way of saying, "Evangelism for Dummies." It is fresh, innovative, outside the box stuff.

Serenity Funeral Service Society >
Harvest Vineyard is a founding member of Serenity Funeral Service Society, a non-profit business which is owned and operated by scores of Edmonton churches. This society was formed to drive down the rapidly escalating costs of funeral services and the effects are now apparent in the marketplace. Any family that attends one of the Edmonton Vineyard churches will receive a significant discount on their funeral arrangements. Serenity's Mission Statement reads: "To provide compassionate Christian service with dignity while offering affordable prices on a non-profit basis by using the local church."
