Join Us for Braeside Family Camp: Worship, Community, and Rest Await! (Guest Writer: Pastor Erin, again!)

This Sunday marks the beginning of Braeside Family Camp — a 3-week stretch of services, worship, community, and rest in the presence of God. Camp runs June 29–July 20. I’ll be attending Sunday evening service this week and likely a few other services over the 3 weeks, I would love for you to join me or pop in on your own during the 3 weeks.

Whether you’re coming solo, bringing the whole family, or tagging along with a friend, there’s something for everyone:

🟢 Evening services (with childcare provided Thursday–Sunday)

🟢 Youth Takeovers on Wednesdays

🟢 A beautiful space to walk, pray, linger, and connect

🟢 The Tuck Shop (yes, snacks after service!)

It’s only about 30 minutes from the church, and the best part is — you get all the benefits of camp life, but you still get to sleep in your own bed!

Some of the most formational moments in my Christian journey happened at places like Braeside. There’s just something powerful about stepping out of your normal rhythm, making space to hear from God, and showing up with expectation. Camp creates that kind of space — and God often meets us there in quiet, life-giving ways.

So here’s your invitation: Come as you are. Come when you can. And come ready to be refreshed.

Find full details at www.braesidecamp.ca/family-camp.

Coming up this Sunday:

We wrap up our journey through 1 Thessalonians and it’s also Name Tag Sunday! Kids will be in the service with us, and right after, we’ll head outside for our Potluck BBQ. We’ll provide the hot dogs — you bring a side to share — and we’ll also have frozen treats for sale to support our Mission Goal.

Come expecting to hear from God, come expecting an excellent time with your church family, and if you can plan to join us at Braeside’s 6:00 PM evening service too!

Summer at Freedom: What’s Ahead (Guest Writer: Pastor Erin)

Hey Freedom Family,

Summer is here — and there are some great ways to stay connected, serve together, and grow this summer!

Here’s what’s coming up and how you can be part of it:

👋 Name Tag Sunday – Next Sunday!

We’re kicking off summer with Name Tag Sunday and a Potluck BBQ after the service!

We’ll be grilling hot dogs — just bring a side to share, and we’ll have frozen treats for sale to support our mission giving.

It’s a great Sunday to bring a friend and take a moment to meet someone new.

🍭 Tuck Shop Evenings

The Tuck Shop is back for a few evenings this summer — a fun way to serve the neighborhood and enjoy time together. Don’t worry, it’s not every week!

If you’re interested in helping out (or just want more info), email Erin and we’ll get you on the list.

🌿 Garden Team

If you love being outside, consider joining the Garden Team this summer to help keep our grounds looking great. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just want to lend a hand, there’s room for you. Click here to sign up!

We’re almost at the finish line in our series on 1 Thessalonians — this week is the second-last message (I get to use the word penultimate!).

We’ll be in 1 Thessalonians 5:12–15, where Paul gives the church some final encouragement — and it’s super practical.

“Acknowledge those who work hard among you… hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work.”

Paul reminds us that the church isn’t meant to copy the status and hierarchy of the culture around us. In the early church, leaders were recognized not for power or position, but for their faithful service.

This Sunday, we’ll talk about what godly leadership really looks like — and how we all play a part in creating a church community that values respect, peace, and mutual care.

Can’t wait to worship with you,

Erin

A Fresh Look at God as Father (Guest Writer: Scott Corkill)

The woman simply shouted "I will never address God as my Father!".. and walked out of our mid-week Bible Study (a mic drop moment). There was an awkward silence in the room for what seemed like forever. Strangely enough, I remember the experience quite clearly (since it happened over 25 years ago).

One of the leaders at my church had been leading an interactive study about who God is, and when the title of "Heavenly Father" came up, the tone of the conversation shifted, and with the sharing of some strong feelings, there were some differences of opinion, things got excited, and this led to the woman's abrupt self-departure from our gathering.

Through the years, I've personally spoken with a handful of people who shared the difficulty and frustration of this woman - how can we call God "Heavenly Father", when that title is sometimes burdened and steeped with very heavy baggage from a possible strained relationship with our earthly father? And on a deeper level... what is our picture of God like? What comes into our mind when we think about God? Does it really matter?

On Sunday, I'll be sharing a bit about this tension, and talking a bit more about God as Father in a message entitled "Our Father Is A Good, Good Father". We often think that Jesus was teaching his disciples to pray when he taught them what we refer to as "The Lord's Prayer"... and yes, I know he was teaching them to pray. But I think Jesus was teaching them something in addition to how to pray.…. I think he was also teaching them about the One to Whom we pray.

How you picture God matters.

What comes into your mind when you think about God matters.

Not just at church, but in your whole life.

It just might influence your life far more than you think!

Come and join us on Sunday morning as we spend time discovering how to recover a proper picture of God, and how to restore (and sustain) life-giving relationship with Him.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Embrace the Power of the Holy Spirit! (Guest Writer: Pastor Del)

It is Pentecost Sunday in a few days. Why does that matter? How does it affect your life? I trust you are aware of the significance of what happened on that date two thousand years ago and how it changed our relationship and interaction with God. Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sin debt and rose from the dead two days later. He spent the next forty days meeting with and teaching over five hundred of his followers about the kingdom of God and the part they play in it. Jesus then commissioned every believer to reach all people and make them his disciples. He told them to go to Jerusalem and prayerfully wait to receive the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit and then he ascended into heaven where he still resides.

Ten days later, on the Sunday of the Jewish Pentecost celebrations, all the believers gathered in Jerusalem experienced what they had been promised. They were filled with the Holy Spirit and his power to be witnesses of Jesus in their local communities, their regions, and throughout the entire world (Acts 1:8 / 2:1-4). Since that event, every Christ follower has the potential for a deep intimate relationship with the Lord by engaging the Spirit continuously to understand and apply the Word, pray with confidence and effect, and live in a way that pleases and glorifies God. You have the privilege and opportunity every moment to be filled with the same Holy Spirit that the first disciples were. That has major implications as it relates to the sermon this Sunday about being a godly model for readiness for Jesus to return to earth one more time.

To prepare to hear the message with context and insight, read and think about the passage in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-5:11. I pray you will find the words encouraging and will share them with others for building up our faith as we look for Jesus to return at any moment. I will make the connection between staying true to the Lord and the ongoing sustaining power of the Holy Spirit to do so. I look forward to participating with you in worship, fellowship, and service as is our habit on Sunday morning. Be blessed.

Some Time Off (and FYI!)

I'm doing something a little unusual this year and taking four weeks of vacation in a row. That means that starting on Monday, I will be away for almost a whole month, including the last four Sundays in June. So, I know you'll understand when I don't respond to calls or emails until early July. (I expect it will take me a few days to catch up!) This Sunday, I'll be speaking from our People Get Ready series and then finishing up a few things before I log off.

Normally I don't announce when any of the Staff take time off, but I wanted to let you know about this for a few reasons:

  1. I plan on truly unplugging and will not be reachable for any church business. Pastor Erin is up to speed, extremely capable, and able to help with anything that comes up.

  2. I've been working to prepare all the teams I oversee for my absence. I am confident that everything is in very good hands - the best, actually - including the fact that we have a fantastic lineup of speakers for Sunday morning (see the Freedom Connect newsletter for details).

  3. I want to let you know that all is well. I have been planning this since late January, knowing that it was the right time for me to be intentional about some extended rest and recovery after a challenging year.

I have to say how grateful I am for this church family. The Staff and Board are fully supportive of this time away and the kids and I are always aware of how loved and cared for we are at Freedom. I'm looking forward to clearing my calendar, walking slowly, reading books, sitting on my deck, and quieting my heart. I pray that all of you are able to carve out some time over the next couple of months to refresh your hearts, too!

See you on Sunday... and then in July. :)

A Service on Sunday Night (with a guest speaker)

,

I wanted to take a moment and use this space to highlight our Sunday Night Service. Perhaps like me, you feel like there is never enough time to be quiet and connect with God in a week. We do our best to carve out time each day but the world is noisy and our minds are busy. So often my heart resonates with Psalm 42:1-2. "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?"

This is the heart of Sunday Night Service. Before you launch into a new week, before you complete another task, or honour one more obligation, there is space for you to spend time with God. It's quiet, it's simple, and it happens once a month.

I'm excited that Eric Jackson will bring the devotional in addition to our time of worship in song, and personal and guided prayer times. You're invited to carve out some time this weekend to "go and meet with God."

Wonder what other times of prayer we have at Freedom? You can check our Prayer page on the website and hint... there is something new coming in the next few weeks!

Looking forward to worshiping with you this weekend,
Pastor Tracy

Get Faithful (dig deeper into 1 Thessalonians)

,

One of my favourite things about studying the scriptures is learning about the original audience, the first ones who would have heard or read the words. 1 & 2 Thessalonians have been no exception. I've enjoyed figuring out who these folks were, how they came to Christ, what their circumstances were and how Paul, Silas and Timothy met and ministered to them. It has started to play out like the plot of a movie or novel in my mind.

The good news is that there is always more to learn and discover in the Bible. I mentioned this in last week's email, but wanted to again point your attention to an additional resource for you to use as we go through our People Get Ready series. Pastor Del's course, Get Faithful, has six lessons from 1 Thessalonians that will deepen your engagement with this short but powerful book of the Bible. You can find it on LearnDash, our learning platform. It's simple to set up a login and then navigate to the course. You can read it online or download it as a PDF to any of your devices.

My prayer continues to be that God will find us faithful, and that we will live with our expectation of Jesus' return in motion. (Learn more about that in last week's message!)

See you on Sunday as we look at chapter two!

How are we supposed to do this? (a model for following Jesus in 2025)

The scriptures are great for so many things. 2 Timothy 3:16 say that they are useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness so that we can be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Thoroughly. And truly, that's what I need. I know that even when I apply my best learning and all my effort to living for Christ, I don't have what it takes on my own. I need more. I need to be taught what it means day by day to live a godly life. I need someone to show me how to walk in the light and live worthy of my calling, pleasing God in every way (Colossians 1:10).

Why is this so important? Well, for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is that the time is short and we've been told to be ready for Jesus to return at any moment. This mandate is ours to carry every day in the midst of a culture that is very far from God. There are pressures all around us to compromise, to become tired of doing what is right, and to choose apathy.

Over the next several weeks, we're going to study 1 & 2 Thessalonians together with an eye on how the scriptures are modelling for us just how it is that we can be people who are ready for the challenges of today and, ultimately, for the return of Christ.

Like we did in Nehemiah, we'll be taking a different path through these letters from Paul to the church in Thessalonica than Pastor Del's course from 1 Thessalonians called Get Faithful. But, I'd still encourage you to use it as a devotional guide in the coming weeks to get a more robust look at this short but powerful book. You can find it here: learn.freedomchurchkw.com

I'm excited to get started with our first message on Sunday called "A Model for Waiting." The Thessalonians have given us a beautiful model for what it looks like to set our intention on being ready for Jesus.

See you then, Pastor Tracy

Let's Get Political (praying for our leaders)

,

I'm writing this the morning after the federal election. Before I got out of bed I was searching the Elections Canada site for results, especially for the ridings in Kitchener. As of this moment (9:15am on April 29th), Kitchener Centre is split between three parties with only 423 votes between first and second; Kitchener South - Hespeler is only 1,148 votes between first and second; and Kitchener-Conestoga has only a 371 vote difference. I do not envy the candidates waiting for the results to be finalized. (And why is there always one poll that hasn't reported??) Of over 179,000 votes, 1,942 is the difference in the three Kitchener ridings.

I'm not a political expert. I'm sure these results will be analyzed exhaustively over the coming days by those trained to do so, and certainly, the results across the country don't all look like Kitchener. But these results certainly show you that in the community where we live, work, raise our families and worship together, there are some pretty big differences in how we think. This election shows what we likely already knew - we are divided in what we believe is best for our country. We are divided in what we value and our vision for the future of Canada. And, until Jesus returns and makes all things new under His Kingship, this will be true.

So, how do we respond in the meantime? We do what Christ-followers have always done. We pray. If your candidate was elected, pray. If your candidate wasn't elected, pray. If you excited or disappointed, worried or hopeful... pray.

I found a great resource from Life Church to help us know how to pray for our leaders. I encourage you to click the link and read more but I will include two of the prayers that I found especially meaningful.

A Prayer for Protection and Safety for Government Leaders
God, You are very good to me. I pray You will be very good to those in public service at all levels in my country and the world. I pray You would keep them safe, bring health to their bodies, and protect their daily routines and travel. You are the ultimate provider, and I pray our leaders will come to know and experience You as a strong refuge. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen. 

A Prayer for Our Country
God, thank You for loving every person in our country. Please help me to love, care, and believe the best about others. Even though people in our country disagree on many issues, please don’t let political divisions cause us to see others as enemies. Instead, provide us with unity that leads to kind, respectful, and constructive actions. Amen.

Join me in praying especially for Prime Minister Carney (and his wife, Diana) by name as he leads his party to lead our country.

In Christ,
Pastor Tracy

Now What? (resources when sharing your faith)

, , ,

You've likely heard us mention the page on our website with information about what it means to follow Jesus. I wanted to point your attention to it and invite you to click on the link and see it for yourself.

If you're talking to someone about your faith, you know someone who has questions, or you've led someone to accept Jesus, this is a simple but helpful resource. You'll find a way to connect with the pastors, a link to a booklet called "Now What? Your First Steps with Jesus," and an invitation to Alpha.

Also, we've provided our prayer team with an additional resource that you also may find helpful. It's a short booklet called "Why Jesus?" by Nicky Gumbel (the founder of Alpha) and is something we encourage you to read it through and keep a copy that you can share with someone if they have questions about what it means to be a Christian.

We will continue to point people to these resources when we gather, but we know that the most effective tool in sharing Jesus with others is your own story of life transformation. As you share, we hope you find this website helpful. You can reach out to us at any time to help you disciple those the Lord has put in your life.

In summary, let me just share it in a bullet-point list!

  • Website: "Now What?" booklet, connection form, Alpha information

  • Alpha: runs 2-3 times per year

  • Booklet: "Why Jesus?" for you to help someone understand your faith

We're praying that many, many people will know Jesus through our church!

Blessings as you share Him,
Pastor Tracy

Easter Weekend: The Before & After (celebrate with us...)

This weekend, we will be sharing some very good news. The best news, in fact. He is risen indeed! We are so privileged to know that regardless of any bad news that we've received in our lives and no matter what comes our way, we have this good news each and every day as our anchor. Thank you, Jesus!

On Friday, Scott Corkill will be sharing in our Before & After theme with a message titled "Red to White" from Isaiah 1:18. We will gather around the communion emblems and consider what the "after" of our lives is because of Christ.

On Saturday, we will rest, considering that quiet and grief-filled day of the first Easter weekend but with the full knowledge that the story doesn't end in death.

On Sunday, we celebrate. As Pope John Paul II said, "We are an Easter people and hallelujah is our song!"

If there is someone you'd like to invite, we want you to know that they will hear the message of the gospel on Friday and Sunday. Good Friday is a family service for all ages. Sunday will have regular Preschool Kids Church and the Jr and Sr Kids will join together for Kids Church after a time of worship at the beginning of the service.

We have an Easter page on our website with lots of FAQs answered if someone is new to our church. freedomkw.com/easter

Also, we will be livestreaming on Friday and Sunday. That might be a great way to invite someone who is hesitant about attending in person. Details for that are always on the homepage of our website.

I can't wait to see you this weekend and celebrate Jesus together!

“As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him— you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.”

This week, we are working through Lesson 9 of the Get Building course we covered in Sunday's message: Make Yourself Accountable.

As it says in Lesson 9, "Most people do not like what accountability costs them. Making a concerted effort, being willing to hear and accept the truth, owning personal responsibility to repent, and aligning with God’s will require a major investment of oneself. However, accountability is an indispensable element for facilitating personal growth and maturity." I encourage you to take a deep dive into this topic.

Something Worth Giving Your Life To (lesson 4 of the Get Building course)

This week we are working through Lesson 4 of the Get Building course we covered in Sunday's message: Nehemiah 2:11-3:32. If you missed Pastor Erin's message, you can watch/listen here: freedomkw.com/messages.

I hope you'll follow along with us and take some time each week to go deeper with this excellent material. I know it will be worth your investment.

Here are your options for Lesson 4:

And please keep in mind as you're going through the course: if you find any typos or errors, don't hesitate to let us know! We promise not to roll our eyes and we will definitely say thank you.

I am praying that we all grow in our confidence and trust in the Lord's leadership over the coming weeks.
