At the conclusion of April, 6 delegates from Connection Point Church & Resource Centre attended the British Columbia Division's Compass Conference 2026 in Abbotsford. The Conference was inspired by The Global Strategic Framework set out by General Lyndon Buckingham. Each day of the conference focused on a different pillar of the strategic framework - People, Mission and Legacy.
Delegates came away encouraged to ensure that their lives and our collective work mirror the heart and mission of Jesus himself. General Buckingham challenged everyone to accept that when people walk into our ministry units, they should experience something completely different than the world has to offer. Something, Danielle Strickland says, that would cause people to ask, "what is that?"
Captain Laura shares, "a main takeaway from the week for me was this: If fear is the currency of oppression, then relationship is the currency of freedom - relationship with God and others. I came away feeling affirmed with the ministry that happens through Connection Point."
