Support hope and healing
for Indigenous youth!

ABOUT

Less than 500 years ago, the only people living in Canada were the First Peoples. The Indigenous people of this land have a rich history and unique relationship with our country, one that includes chapters of hurt but also new chapters of healing.

Together, through tangible acts of love and hope-filled testimony, we can be a blessing to Indigenous communities across the land! Partner with us today.

Honouring Survivors of Indian Residential School / ORANGE SHIRT DAY FULL PROGRAM

Crystal Lavallee, Producer for FirstPeoplesVoices.ca has travelled across Canada many many many times to sit with First Nation, Metis and Inuit peoples, hearing their positive faith stories.

While sitting down with survivors of residential schools, she caught a glimpse into why there are the social challenges we see today.

Ethan Jurgeneit - Finding Empowerment through God, and Rugby!

While in the Muskoka region, Crystal met the #1 rugby player in Canada (for his age category), Ethan Jurgeneit. At 6 years of age, Ethan developed a love for rugby. His passion for the game compelled him to train hard, which lead him to qualify for team Canada! Unfortunately, due to Covid-19 his dream of playing for U18 Senior Men’s Team was shattered. Despite the challenges, Ethan shares how God is reminding him of His plan for his life, he needs only to trust. At 2 years of age, Ethan gave his life to Christ after a miraculous healing form eczema. Ethan wants others to know that God is strong, and God’s strength can be seen through him on the rugby field!

Orange Shirt Day – Every Child Matters

September 30, 2020

On the first day at residential school, survivor Phyllis Jack Webstad wore her shiny new orange shirt, bought by her grandmother. She loved it!
