There is much at stake if we are not intentional about reaching Canada’s next generation. So many are heavily at risk of becoming involved in self-harming, and even criminal activity. Property crimes, use and distribution of drugs, robbery and physical altercations destroy the lives of our young quickly. These actions often result from adversity in the home - abuse, neglect, food insecurity, and parental substance use. Anna is passionate about seeing individuals living within at-risk communities experience freedom from bondage, being set free through the love and forgiveness only Christ provides. Purpose, hope and even restoration can result when a young life is transformed, and it’s beautiful when it does!
