Around 200 women took part in a recent prison revival in Las Vegas.

Best-selling author and speaker, Jennie Allen and the God Behind Bars team, visited the maximum-security women's prison over the weekend. 

"There were 200 women in the room, and all but a few accepted Christ," said Allen. "Not just accepted Christ. They ran to Jesus."

After her party won a majority government in the New Brunswick election on Monday, Liberal Leader Susan Holt thanked all the women who came before her.

Flanked by her three young daughters on stage in Fredericton, Holt, the first female premier-designate in New Brunswick history, delivered a bilingual victory speech that paid tribute to female trailblazers in provincial politics.

The 47-year-old former business advocate and public servant led the Liberals to victory after a 33-day campaign, thwarting Blaine Higgs’s bid to secure a third term as Tory premier.

Liberal MP Sean Casey is the first to publicly confirm that he has signed a letter calling on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to resign, arguing it would be in the best interests of the country to let someone else take the reins. 

As an internal revolt brews, few Liberal MPs who are not in the cabinet are publicly defending the prime minister. The upcoming caucus meeting on Wednesday appears to present the most serious challenge to Trudeau's leadership to date.

To celebrate Winnipeg's 150th anniversary the mayor decided to honour 150 individuals who have been major contributors to making Winnipeg a better place. On Saturday there was a tree-planting ceremony for 30 individuals, including Kent Dueck of ICYA. 

Originally from Winnipeg, Heather Rosen has had quite a career in songwriting and singing. Now living in L.A. with her family, she is giving all her talents to God. 

Rosen was born and raised in Winnipeg, Man. and attended Miles Mac Collegiate. While she grew up going to church, Rosen had never understood the good news of Jesus and what His death and resurrection meant in her life personally. At the age of 16, she officially left the Christian faith and anything to do with it.

Galatians 2:4-5

Few things turn our crank faster than being around big-minded, enthusiastic, broad-shouldered visionaries. They are positive, on the move, excited about exploring new vistas, inspired, and inspiring. While others are preoccupied with tiny tasks and nitpicking squabbles, these people see opportunity in every difficulty and helpful lessons in every setback.

A 17-year-old female is facing charges following an assault outside a school in the 100 block of St. Mary's Road. 

At approximately 11 a.m. on Oct. 16, a physical fight broke out between a group of teens off school property when one teen pulled out a machete and struck the other two. The victims, both males aged 15 and 18, received minor injuries due to the protection of their clothing and backpack. They did not require medical attention. 

Staff from the school intervened and stopped the fight as police were contacted. 

A multi-night free program is coming to Winnipeg on Wednesday.

October 19, 2024, marked one year since the Canadian Bible Society moved into the new location at 584 Pembina Highway with a day filled with live worship, door crashers, and a lot of smiles.
