a weekend to...Be Challenged, Fellowship, Worship, Pray, Grow, Laugh, Learn, Lead
"There is an Elephant in the Church Pew, that Elephant is Pornography"
This years speaker is Don Ford
The driving passion of Don’s life is to be able to lead people to a greater understanding and experience of who we are in Christ.
“We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom,
so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. To this end I labor,
struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me.”
Col 1:28-29 NIV
Having put this desire into Don’s heart, God led him away from the farm in 1985 into full-time ministry as a Pastor. Don spent 13 years pastoring the High Level Evangelical Church and it was during that time that the church joined the Alberta Parkland District. Following that, Don pastored the Emmanuel Baptist Church in Valleyview and it was there that the Elders of the church asked if Don would do an extensive teaching series on sexuality and pornography. They recognized porn as being a huge but silent issue within the church and they wanted to break that silence.
Presently Don is doing Transitional Ministry in Fort Vermilion under the Associated Gospel Churches of Canada. Don has been blessed to be married to his best friend (Esther) for 36 years. He is also blessed with four children and ten grandchildren. Don enjoys most things outdoors and his favorite activity is being deep in the bush with a group of guys camping and moose hunting.
