Testimonies
Eph 5:15

It further states in (1 John 5:19) that “the whole world lies in wickedness.” My friend this is the time to draw closer to God and fulfill your calling to be in the first resurrection when He returns to establish his everlasting Kingdom.

1 John 5:19

We cannot over-emphasize the need for us to be fed the Word of God during a period in our history that points to cataclysmic events that are about to befall humanity. These events will affect every human being alive, including YOU. God’s people need to be relentless in their pursuits to worship Him in spirit and in truth. One way of doing this is to appear before Him during his “appointed times,” the Sabbath Days, both weekly and annual Sabbaths. You will not only be demonstrating to God you have taken your call seriously, but telling Him it’s time to walk in His ways as He so commanded.It’s with all of this in mind that we invite you to visit with us, get to know more about CGI Kawartha lakes, and be a part of the bride, the body of Christ, being prepared for the return of its groom – Jesus Christ.

Yours in Christ...

Here is… a social gathering of some of our KL Prism Pal ladies. We had a craft day whereby we painted these bottles with snow scenes and cardinals – and put little lights up inside. Those who were able to attend had a fabulous time and fun and fellowship as well as taking home a hand crafted creation.
