 We are graduates of the First Nation Full Gospel Bible school In Fort Qu' Appelle Saskatchewan. Allan and his wife Virginia have been serving the Lord together for over 10 years now. Allan's wife Virginia Spence was Born and raised in Southern Alberta. She is a member of the Blood tribe from standoff Alberta. she was adopted to a family just across the River in Hillspring Alberta. Together they moved to Leaf Rapids in 2009, where they opened up their home to community members and their children to fellowship and sing and share what they could about themselves and how the Lord was doing things for them, in their life. They rented out the Catholic church and held services there for a while. It was during this time and this experience that the heart for outreach was established in them. After this couple moved on to do other things at bible school and ministry trips and preaching and teaching, their heart held fast to the hope of getting back to that place of freely being able to fellowship with others and help to guide and teach the basic and simple truths of the Gospel like they did in their home in Leaf Rapids. The Word Ministry means to serve others, so the question in our hearts for those who come into the home and ministry really is" What can we do to help you?"
