The church has many seen many developments in the last three years.
Our first significant big change is our move from Jackson St, Chinatown to our present Nanaimo-Broadway location. This tactical move prompts us to ask, “Why and for what is God moving us here?”
Our leaving the Evangelical Lutheran Churches in Canada (ELCiC) to become an independent congregation came about because of our conviction of the Bible’s authority on our lives. The proposed new Constitution and Ordination Policy are the residual steps to complete that vote.
As a family, we have also seen some subtractions and additions to our membership. By holding on to God’s ideal for the church and our faith in each other and by our refusal to leave this community, we have chosen to stick around and build together.
From our first church mission trip to building the Living Hope School for the Dalits in Faridkot, India, we have learnt what it means to stretch our faith. But what a blessing it has been for us! As we push forward to complete this challenge, will we see more miracles along the way?
Looking at the compressed history of BHLC for the past 3 years, my heart almost leap out as I see how closely aligned they are to the direction that God has been leading us. Are you?
