Band of Brothers Zoom Meeting – This Monday Mar. 2nd
2025 Year End Message
It’s hard to believe that 2025 is winding down so very quickly and that 2026 is right around the corner. Our first Men’s Breakfast in the New Year was on January 3rd.
I believe that we are experiencing a Holy Spirit shift in our Ministry, a time of activation. Over the years we have been building the foundation with the Cornerstone being Jesus Christ. As part of the activation process we will be discussing the various gifts from Holy Spirit to move us forward together in unity.
Our first meeting of the New Year resulted in some reported healings, Praise God!!! There was lots of interaction along with prayer for each other’s needs. The Presence of the Lord was awesome.
I announced at our last meeting that I believe Holy Spirit is asking us to do some homework before our next meeting. Our goal is to search the Scriptures and meditate on the gifts of the Holy Spirit given to each of us. Then pray and seek Holy Spirit to show us our Strongest gift that seems to stand out above the rest. Take notes on what you are hearing and be prepared to share at our next Men’s Breakfast. Also please bring your Bibles.
Our NEXT men’s breakfast will be Saturday Mar. 7th, 8:30 am – 11:45 am.
Tyler Douglas will be giving his testimony.
As well, we’ll be discussing the fruit and gifts given to us by the Holy Spirit. Before you come, please take time to review Scripture and write down the passage references that speak about the fruit/gifts of the Holy Spirit. Relevant passages for the Gifts: Romans 12:6, 1st Cor.12 8-10 and 1st. Cor.12: 28-30, Eph. 4:11 and 1st. Peter 4:9-11. Bring your Bible!
for a listing of all of these gifts that the above passages speak of you can download this pdf file: Spiritual Gifts
We’ll also have support prayer groups.
Praise & Worship Lead: Steve McCabe

Next year’s Living Stones Men’s Ministry retreat will be Sept. 11th,12th,13th, 2026 at Camp Geddie in Merigomish, Nova Scotia.
We are pleased to have Pastor Gerry Bezanson, from Middleton as our weekend guest speaker. For those of us who know Gerry fishing is one of his favourite pastimes, so I expect he will have some great comparisons between the Natural and the Spiritual about fishing.
On Sunday morning at the end of our weekend together we will be having a Communion Service led by Rev. Dr. Stephen Croft. Women are welcome to join us for this Communion Service. For more information, go to our retreat Page, Retreat 2026 – Deep Water Fishing

Living Stones Men’s Ministry T-Shirt
Prior to our Retreat I had a Living Stones Men’s Ministry T-Shirt made up. (see pictures below). Some of the men who attended our Retreat wanted to know how they could get one of these T-Shirts. I was told the price is 30.00 plus tax which adds up to $34.50 each upon receipt. If you want to have one, please contact me personally with your size and I will order one for you.
