At the end of each year, JIL Canada East holds its WIN Summit and a 3 Day Corporate Prayer and Fasting. This event has two purposes: (1) to thank God for what He has done during the year, and (2) to seek Him for our plans and directions in the upcoming year. The Warrior Intercessors Network is the prayer ministry of the JIL Church.
This year's Summit was held in two batches. From November 24-25, batch 1 of the WIN Summit was held in Niagara Falls with 439 delegates from around the Greater Toronto Area and Western Ontario. The much awaited event even drew a member from JIL Aruba, representing and praying for her church and nation. Batch 2 of the Summit was held on December 1-2 in Montebello, Quebec, with over 90 delegates from JIL Churches in Ottawa, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The theme this year was "Breaking The Fallow Ground" based on Hosea 10:12 and Jeremiah 4:3. As the Summit started, we welcomed the Holy Spirit with praise and worship. Ptr. Bong Gonzales gave us an overview of prayer and fasting, and we heard some testimonies of miracles received from God through prayer and fasting in the past, such as: - deliverance from vices - healing of sickness and diseases - removal of sinful desires - miracle answered prayer of having a baby - normalized sleeping patterns - financial breakthrough - supernatural strength and provision during the 3 Day Prayer and Fasting - freedom from people-pleasing and comparison - deliverance and inner healing from oppression. Truly, the God we serve is alive and is still working today! Here are some notable quotes from the WIN Summit 2018: "Do not rob yourself of your best future because you sacrificed your vision. That's why the Bible says to 'guard your heart.'" "Our master is so good that He never sends us empty handed. He has prepared us transformed us, empowered with his likeness and power." "Dapat alalahanin ang first love natin sa Panginoon. (We should remember our first love with the Lord). True love will bring commitment, obedience, understanding, humility." "If we are sure of the first coming of Jesus Christ, we must be 8 times more sure of His second coming." "Jesus is our great example of total surrender." "Indeed, God speaks to His people. Treasure the voice of God." “Realize and understand how much God loves you. In order to go back to your first love, remember what God has done for you."

Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations. Psalm 100:4-5 (NIV) Our hearts will never stop singing of gratitude, our lips will never cease to bless His Holy name because, the One True God never stops showing His never-ending faithfulness; and it has definitely been evident in Canada’s National Capital. June 9, 2018 marked JIL Ottawa’s 23rd year as a church. What started out in a basement 23 years ago, has now expanded into multiple worship services all spread out in the National Capital Region; and to celebrate, a congregation of over500 souls joined together in unity to acknowledge God’s goodness at Tudor Hall in Ottawa, Ontario. The victorious anniversary started with the raising of the Canadian and Philippine flags as both national anthems; O Canada and Lupang Hinirang were sung. Following that, a powerful pageantry number presented by JIL Ottawa’s Elyondoulos together with Ottawa’s WAN (Worship Arts Network), opened the anniversary celebration. With everyone coming together in one body, the anointed WAN Team, led the whole room into the heart of praise and worship. Love, unity and and joy, saturated the sanctuary as the Spirit of the Living God swept the place with His overwhelming presence. Our very own Director of International Operations of JIL Americas, Rev. Bong Gonzales shared the Word of God, teaching and encouraging each individual that by having a strong biblical foundation (2 Tim. 3:16-17), establishing a faith life (Heb 11:6), using the gifts and talents God has blessed us with (Rom. 12:4-9) and Walking in Christ (Eph 4:1-4) we can all “Be Strong and Do Great Things”. The preaching encouraged each and everyone of us, to continue living our lives with Jesus, as we rely and depend on His Holy Spirit to equip us to complete the things He calls us to accomplish. Following the powerful message, JIL Gatineau and newly established, JIL Orleans presented powerful interpretative presentations. The Children’s Ministry of JIL Ottawa West uplifted the atmosphere bringing a smile to everyone’s face as they offered their own high-energy dance number. Ottawa’s CYN (Christian Youth for the Nations) Triune also ministry offered a special number that combined contemporary, interpretative and hip-hop all in one performance. All the presentations, brought joy to everyone in the room, but above all that; the dance numbers exemplified a dynamic offering of worship, adoration and Thanksgiving to our King. We are amazed because time and time again, God proves Himself to be faithful. His unwavering Love never fails and His glory will continue to endure throughout the generations! We are excited to see what else God will establish here in Ottawa, knowing that He directs our steps and what God has established no man can curse. All the glory, honor and praise belongs to God for ever and ever! by Dillan Agpoon, JIL Orleans “And I also say unto thee… and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18 NIV The favour and power of God knows no bounds; and in Orleans, the East-most community in Ottawa, there is no exception. As of May 6th, 2018, a new member to the Eastern JIL Canada family of churches is born; JIL Orleans, headed by Ptr. Tara Agpoon, JIL Area 3 Pastor, and hosted in the facilities of Grace Presbyterian Church (GPC). JIL Orleans looks to reach out and touch the hearts of the people in the community through the teaching of His word and the building of everlasting, Christ-centered, relationships
After establishing its leaders and unifying its congregation with God’s heart, along with the aid of Rev. Mercy Galera to guide and counsel them, JIL Orleans is off to a fresh start and is not limiting what God can do through their lives!

Romans 12:4-5 NIV The Word of God has once again been proven through the victory of JIL Maple’s first anniversary! As a unified body of Christ, the people of JIL Maple had just celebrated a year of God’s favour and faithfulness to them last Sunday, April 15, 2018. From the opening numbers to closing prayer, it was truly a victorious, Spirit-filled celebration
Rev. Bong Gonzales shared the Word of God. The powerful message was titled, “4 Areas to be Established in this Life.” It highlighted bible verses including 2 Timothy 3:16-17, Hebrews 11:6, Romans 12:4-9, and Ephesians 4:1-4. The preaching accentuated God’s power in the people's lives, and fortified them to carry the word.

JIL HALIFAX CELEBRATES ITS FIRST YEAR The week started with JIL Halifax, Nova Scotia celebrating its first anniversary! On January 28, 2018, over 60 people gathered as our God showed JIL Halifax His awesome presence. In its first year, JIL Halifax has proven to be a lighthouse to the Halifax and Dartmouth community. For JIL Canada, the launching of JIL Halifax last year was remembered as the first new province reached in a number of years, and the first in the Maritime region of Canada. Pastor Bong Gonzales, JIL Director for International Operations - Americas, travelled from Toronto to preach and meet the JIL Halifax congregation. JIL Halifax is lead by missionary pastor, Pastor Mercy Galera, together with the missionary help of TJ Gonzales.

JIL Moncton's pioneering team is composed of workers formerly from JIL Taiwan. Upon hearing of the launching of JIL Halifax, they contacted Pastor Mercy and our church office, and asked to start a Bible Study in their area. Truly, God had a great purpose in allowing them to move to New Brunswick from Taiwan.
