Who we are

Our mission, is to reach out with the love of Christ to people in rural and remote areas beyond the reach of the traditional church.

The Cariboo Presbyterian House Church Mission is a mission work of the Presbyterian Church in Canada.

Our mission is to reach out with the love of Christ to those who live beyond the reach of the traditional church in the rural and remotes areas of the Cariboo/Chilcotin region of BC.

Each house church or ministry point is unique and has its own flavour. Some are very small and some host up to 40 people. We involve people of all ages from active kids’ programs and Vacation Bible Schools to outreach work in seniors’ residences.

While we are Presbyterian in structure (and have a session of elders who oversee the whole ministry) we are interdenominational in practice, with people from all kinds of backgrounds. Our emphasis is on building communities of faith in Jesus who will then share that same love with their neighbours and serve their surrounding communities

Music of the Day

I am so glad that Jesus loves me


I am so glad that our Father in Heav’n
Tells of His love in the Book He has giv’n;
Wonderful things in the Bible I see,
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me. ...

Leader Bio:
Mark grew up in the lower mainland and moved to the Cariboo in 2002 where he was introduced to house church at McLeese lake. Alicia grew up in Quesnel before moving to Langley to attend the Trinity Western University nursing program. They have both enjoyed worshipping in house churches and were part of a network of house churches in Vancouver while Mark was working on a Master of Divinity degree at Regent College. They have an 8 month old boy (Micah) and are enjoying their new life living in Williams Lake.

Mark caught the vision for house church while attending the McLeese Lake church. After discerning the call to pastoral ministry he desires to serve the churches in the Cariboo and develop house church as a vibrant and growing form of the church in Canada.

Mark is a carpenter by trade and enjoys woodworking and home construction. He and Alicia enjoy hiking and exploring new places in BC. The Cariboo is a treasure of lakes and trails and they look forward to exploring the beautiful landscape of the Cariboo. Micah enjoys crawling, turning pages in his books, and grabbing things that he is not allowed to touch. In contrast to his insulant look in this picture, he is a good-natured treasure they adore.   Edit

Cariboo Presbyterian Church History

How it all Began

In 1988, through the Presbytery of Kamloops, a survey was done by the Revs. David Webber and Robert Garvin to look at the needs and viability for ministry in the Cariboo-Chilcotin region. Both ministers had had a vision to see rural and remote people reached with the gospel of Christ and to have the opportunity to worship in their communities. After the survey was done, David and Robert presented the vision to reach out to these people with a model of house churches. Others took hold of the vision. The Presbytery of Kamloops and then the Synod of British Columbia supported the vision. When the national church was approached they also supported the vision but could not extend that support to the finances needed to make the vision a reality.

A year after the original proposal was presented, the Synod of British Columbia took up the challenge. Through the gifts of the people and the churches of British Columbia, David and Linda Webber were able to move to Lac La Hache and establish the first house church in their own home. They spent many hours driving through the back roads of the Cariboo-Chilcotin meeting people and seeking out interest for the building of the church in the area.

Five years later, there were 7 established house churches meeting throughout the week with more ready to begin. During those early years a body of elders (the Session) was built up. Initially, the elders were ‘borrowed’ from other congregations. Then as the ministry grew, elders were chosen from within the new congregation. At that point the congregation felt that it was time to expand the work by calling another full-time missionary to share the ministry responsibilties with David Webber. In September 1994 Jon Wyminga and Shannon Bell-Wyminga were called as a team to fill one position between the two of them. Jon and Shannon settled in Williams Lake in the centre of the region. This enabled the team to begin establishing more ministry points and the number quickly doubled during those first 2 years. After 6 years in Williams Lake, Jon and Shannon felt God’s call to move to the village of Nazko, 3 hours North East to focus more on the growing Native ministry there. In 2017 we mark 28 years of mission through the Cariboo Presbyterian Church. Over the whole 28 years of the life of the congregation, there have been up to 30 different ministry points with up to 18 operating at any given time.

The power of Christian prayer I want to know Thee
Father, I want to know Thee, but my coward heart fears to give up its toys. I cannot part with them without inward bleeding, and I do not try to hide from Thee the terror of the parting. I come trembling, but I do come. Please root from my heart all those things which I have cherished so long and which have become a very part of my living self, so that Thou mayest enter and dwell there without a rival. Then shalt Thou make the place of Thy feet glorious. Then shall my heart have no need of the sun to shine in it, for Thyself wilt be the light of it, and there shall be no night there. In Jesus Name, Amen.
