Outspoken Christian, singer, and acting legend Pat Boone has released a powerful anthem song to bring funds and awareness to Africa's fresh water problem. 

Boone's song, "One - Voices for Tanzania," was released just before World Water Day on March 22, 2025. The 90-year-old invited other voices to join him on the song, including Alabama, Vince Gill, Billy Dean, Pam Tillis, Lee Greenwood, and Wendy Moten, to name a few.

The Manitoba government is introducing advanced care paramedics to rural and northern Manitoba in hopes of strengthening emergency care across the province. 

“We’re expanding the scope of paramedicine in the province, starting with clinical service leaders stationed in communities throughout rural and northern Manitoba,” said Health, Seniors and Long-Term Care Minister Uzoma Asagwara.

Manitoba Blue Cross is investing in warehouse space for a local non-profit that helps provide beds to children without a place to sleep.

The company has signed a five-year building lease for the local chapter of Sleep in Heavenly Peace, allowing the non-profit to more than double bed production for children in the community.

It’s the final day of the Power of Hope Radiothon, and we’ve already seen incredible generosity from listeners like you!

With violent crime on the rise in rural Manitoba, the province is investing $2 million into its Operational Communications Centre to boost public safety.

The funding will allow officers to respond to crimes and critical incidents in a more timely fashion.

"This investment of $2 million will help ensure our officers have the resources they need to respond to emergencies in the moments when it matters most to Manitobans," said Justice Minister Matt Wiebe.

A cooking fire late Wednesday afternoon caused significant damage to a Fort Garry home. 

Just before 6 p.m., fire crews were called to a single-family bungalow in the 800 block of Lyon Street near Oakenwald Avenue. 

When they arrived, they found smoke pouring from the home. They attacked the fire from inside the home and got it under control within 20 minutes. 

Everyone inside the home was able to evacuate before firefighters arrived. 

One person was assessed at the scene but did not require a trip to the hospital. 

Liberal Leader Mark Carney took his promise of making Canada an "energy superpower" to the heart of Canada's oil industry Wednesday, becoming the second party leader in three days to promise to speed up the review process to greenlight major national energy projects.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre made a one-project, one-review promise at a campaign stop in northwest British Columbia on Monday. Both parties are trying to convince Canadians they can ditch Canada's reputation as a place where big projects take far too long to get built.

1 Peter 2:24

"'He himself bore our sins' in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; 'by his wounds you have been healed.'"

Psalm 27:14

David’s cry for help doesn’t end with an account of God’s sudden and miraculous provision. Instead, the songwriter commits to doing what comes least naturally to people in fear. He committed to doing nothing. He chose to wait on God. Read that again—aloud.

Exhortation to Wait

Wait for the LORD;
Be strong and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for the LORD (Psalm 27:14)
