A new space has opened up at Siloam Mission designed to support individuals transitioning out of homelessness.

Amiko-giba'igan is a new housewares space, offering all the essentials to those who need them.

The Supreme Court of Canada says a person must wait seven years after completely finishing their post-secondary studies before they can be released from student loan debt under the federal bankruptcy law.

The top court's decision came Thursday in the case of Izabela Piekut, who received government student loans in the course of three university programs from 1987 to 2003.

Piekut later returned to school and earned a master's degree in 2009 without the help of additional student loans.

Liberal Leader Mark Carney spent his first English election debate presenting himself as a safe pair of hands for a country in crisis — while Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre sought to frame him as more of the same after a decade of Liberal government.

Carney, who is leading in the polls, became the main target of all his rivals' attacks early in Thursday's final debate of the election — a trend that carried over from Wednesday's French language debate.

A Christian ministry based out of Winnipeg is sharing what God is up to in Ukraine with a ministry couple that has been working with them for decades. 

Square One World Media is bringing Nikolai and Natalia Chernomor to Manitoba from Ukraine to share insights on how the gospel is being shared during a time of war. 

"They were our ministry partners for the last 25 years," says Shoaib Ebadi, the president and executive director with Square One. "They are producing Christian media in Ukraine in different formats such as podcasts and videos, ever since the war started."

Romans 10:9-10

"If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved."

Mark 10:42-45

I'm sure it comes as no surprise to most of us that we act out precisely what we take in. In other words, we become what we think. Long before that familiar line found its way into Psychology 101 and hyped-up sales meetings, the Bible included it in one of its ancient scrolls. It just said it in a little different way: "For as he thinks within himself, so he is" (Proverbs 23:7). 

“Many people are feeling not fully themselves; many people are feeling isolation.”

These feelings and the many anxieties that accompany turmoil in the world, reflects Todd Sperber, make events like Saturday’s Walk for Jesus in Winnipeg all the more important.

“With narratives of rumours of wars and so much negativity and cultural division,” he says. “So we are coming together to walk for Jesus and honour and remember his life, death and resurrection.”

Winnipeg police are asking for the public’s help in locating two suspects wanted in connection with a double homicide that occurred earlier this year in the North End.

Canada-wide warrants have been issued for 24-year-old Jermain Gage Houle for second-degree murder, and 27-year-old Aaron Junior Houle for accessory after the fact. Investigators believe they are responsible for the February shooting deaths of Sheldon Derrach Catcheway, 33, and Shanastene Irene McLeod, 35.

After a tragic year, losing her entire family in a plane crash, Autumn Nelon is set to grace the stage again, this time as a solo act. 

The family group were on their way to join the Gaither Homecoming Cruise to Alaska in July 2024 when tragedy struck.

The Nelon's plane crashed, claiming the lives of Jason and Kelly Nelon Clark, Amber and Nathan Kistler and their assistant, Melodi Hodges. The pilot, Larry Haynie and his wife, Melissa, were also killed in the crash. 

Worship artist Pat Barrett is bringing his Beautiful Life Tour to Winnipeg on Wednesday, April 23, and all remaining tickets are only $20 (plus fees and taxes).

The Atlanta-based singer-songwriter will perform at the Burton Cummings Theatre, joined by special guest Aodhán King, known for his work with Hillsong Young & Free.
