Psalm 103:17-18

"But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children— with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts."

“Your health is your most valuable asset.”

Dr. Daniel Chenier, the man behind the eponymous Dr. Daniel V. Chenier Chiropractor & Wellness Centre in Winnipeg, is accepting new patients. 

“The focus in my practice is on adjusting the spine, which a lot of people do,” Chenier says. “But my focus is on adjusting the spine in order to optimize the function of the nervous system, that communication between the brain and the body.” 

1 Timothy 6:6–8

May I invite you to the shores of Lake Contentment?

Undisturbed by outside noises brought on by the jackhammers of exaggeration, those who enjoy the lake know what relaxation is all about. They know nothing of any winter of discontent (or spring or fall or summer, for that matter). Such an existence breeds security and happiness.

Manitoba has declared a provincial state of emergency as dozens of wildfires continue to burn across the province, threatening communities, infrastructure, and natural resources.

An emergency alert issued Tuesday warns of rapidly spreading fires and extreme fire conditions, particularly in northern and eastern Manitoba, where several communities have already been evacuated or placed under evacuation alerts.

A rapidly growing wildfire near the Saskatchewan border in Northern Manitoba has prompted a mandatory evacuation order for the entire community of Flin Flon.

The wildfire, identified as Fire WE024, was first detected on Monday near the community of Creighton, Sask., and has since ballooned in size. As of Wednesday afternoon, the estimated area is 20,000 hectares and is now threatening the community.

Following the Winnipeg Jets elimination from the Stanley Cup playoffs, one player is recovering after having surgery. 

The Winnipeg Jets shared on Facebook on Wednesday afternoon that Captain Adam Lowry underwent successful hip surgery yesterday. 

"It is anticipated that his rehabilitation will take five to six months," the post said. 

To answer any fans' questions, the team said that he is expected to make a full recovery. 

With temperatures nearing 30 degrees this week in Winnipeg, many are sharing the best spots around Manitoba to cool off with a tasty treat. 

We asked CHVN listeners where the best ice cream spots around Manitoba were. 

Some of the places mentioned in Winnipeg are Dug and Betty's, Sky Sundae, Sargent Sundae, Baba's House, Chaeban Ice Cream, Milksmith, Licks, Original George's, and Utoffeea.

In Winkler, Erica said, "Icebergs! Mmmm, deep-fried oreo sundae." Nicci agreed and also said, "Charley B's"

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew says widespread wildfires have the city of Flin Flon on the verge of evacuation while officials work to find places to put thousands more possible evacuees.

The city's 5,000 residents were told Tuesday to be ready to flee at a moment's notice. Hospital patients are being moved to safety.

Officials say the fire, threatening Flin Flon from the north, began Monday in the Saskatchewan town of Creighton and crossed the Manitoba boundary. The town's 1,200 residents have been asked to pack essentials and fuel up in case they’re told to leave.

Southland Church has shared an encouraging update as wildfires continue to burn dangerously close, just one kilometre from the Bird River Bible Camp property.

In a video posted on social media, Southland Church Lead Pastor Stefan Duerksen gives a praise report.

"The camp is standing. We have blue skies at the camp," said Duerksen. "We have green grass. We have trees and buildings. Everything looks perfect, and for that, we need to praise the Lord. That is a huge miracle. We are very grateful for that."

However, Duerksen says there is still a huge need for prayer.
