Our Story

The dream to start a new church began in 2006 when my wife Robin and I spent time serving the Saturation Church Planting Movement in North Eastern India. A seed was planted that has been growing in us as God has continued to train and equip us for this next step in our lives. Our heart for church planting is really motivated by God's heart for the lost!! The main goal is not just to plant another church/religous gathering, but it's about a drivenness to see people start a relationship with Jesus and experience a life change that only He can bring. We are continuing to pursue a dream God gave us many years ago to see 900 people worshipping God in the mid-Vancouver Island region. Over the past 10 years we have seen God move in so many ways as we have continued to trust Him to lead CLC. From starting out meeting in Twin Cities Brewery, to a year and half meeting at the Gymnastics Club to the last 7 years sharing space with First Baptist it's been amazing to see so many families connect into our community. We love the life and energy that comes with kids all around. We love to see the incredible way God has grown CLC Youth, with so many youth from our community coming to know Jesus. And we have been blessed to see how so many people have chosen to live their lives on mission, not just settling for the boring religious life, but rather living full on sold out for Jesus!!
