By day the Lord directs his love,
at night his song is with me—
a prayer to the God of my life.

Thousands of people made their way to a farm in the Friedensfeld area Wednesday evening for a concert put on by controversial American performer and political activist Sean Feucht.

The show is part of Feucht's Revive in 25 tour, and it was first set to be held in Winnipeg's Central Park before the city denied the event a permit last month, citing several concerns, chief amongst them safety.

Motorists will be able to drive over the Louise Bridge several weeks earlier than anticipated starting Friday morning. 

The bridge was originally closed in May 2025 for annual inspection and maintenance.

For the last two years, Cade Smith has been a reliable pitcher for the Cleveland Guardians in Major League Baseball, now he's sharing one of his favourite Bible verses with fans while signing autographs. 

Darby Nobles is the team chaplain for several Cleveland teams such as the Browns and the Cavaliers. He is also the Metro Cleveland director for the Cleveland Fellowship of Christian Athletes. 

Nobles shared a video on social media of Smith signing autographs over the weekend and explaining why he has "1 Cor 6:11" written on his glove. 

For 40 years, Harvest Manitoba has been committed to ensuring no Manitoban goes hungry, and now the non-profit is gearing up for a big celebration by doing what they do best.

"That is feeding people and doing it a little bit differently with a barbecue street party at our warehouse," Vince Barletta, the President and CEO of Harvest Manitoba said. "We've got entertainment lined up, the screening of a new short documentary, lots of activities, and tours of the warehouse."

A brand-new animated film called Light of the World is set to hit theatres this fall and move hearts, depicting the life of Jesus. 

"It's a reimaging of telling the life story of Jesus through the eyes of a young disciple, John," says John Schafer, the director of Light of the World. "It's a fresh take on it. We made this movie for everyone, but we wrote it mind for people who may not have a concept of Jesus or the Bible."

Darren Mulligan, the lead singer of We Are Messengers, celebrated his daughter's 13th birthday by releasing a tear-jerking song. 

Mulligan and his wife Heidi have four children together, and their eldest daughter, Emmanuelle, just became a teenager.

"It has been a wrestle, for me, letting go of that beautiful child-like relationship that we had when she was a small, wee baby girl," says Mulligan on the band's social media. "But I get the privilege of watching her grow up and navigate a really tricky world."
