Please prayerfully consider how you can support our team this year! 

Mother’s Day Drive 2026 for Family Support Centre

Whyte Ridge Baptist Church wants to bless the moms who visit our church partner, Family Support Centre(FSC), coming up this Mother’s Day! FSC Ministry has been around for over 40 years in Winnipeg supporting moms with counselling and practical help such as baby clothes, diapers and formula for their newborn babies and young children.

We will have a table set up in the foyer for April 26, May 3 & 10 (Mother’s Day) where you can drop off gifts especially for the moms and/or their babies. See the list below for suggestions. Socks, lotion, journals or a $10 gift card will encourage these moms as they celebrate this Mother’s Day. Items for the babies are always welcome such as baby formula, newborn sleepers, soothers, blankets and baby care products. Please only new items for the babies! 

If you have any questions, contact Debbie Neufeld at the church office. 

Encouraging Political Engagement: Bill C-9

The EFC is encouraging us to contact members of the Senate in regards to Bill C-9 (Combatting Hate Act). While the EFC supports the intent to protect religious sites, it opposes the removal of the “religious belief defence” which threatens religious freedom and sincere faith expressions.

 On behalf of our Justice and Mercy (JAM) Team, we would encourage you to call a member of the Senate (preferred) or personalize the message in this letter from The Evangelical Fellowship of Canada Bill C-9 and send as an email (the second reading could begin as early as April 13th).  Click here Bill C-9 for a script that you can use to call or email. It also includes contact information for the senators.

Contact Karen Owzarek or Pastor Doug for more information.

A Big Thank You!

On behalf of Far Corners Ministry, we would like to express our sincere thanks for the generous support of the Whyte Ridge Baptist church family in 2025!  We recently received your year-end gift that will once again this year support the education of children of pastors who would not be able to provide better quality schooling or tutoring for their children.  Thank you for the trust that you put us as we support pastors and churches in northeast India.  We covet your continued prayer support for all of our partners serving in India.

Sincerely, Shant & Ginny Manuel

Time: 5:30 pm – 6:45 pm

Register Here: Come to the Table Registration Form – Wed, Jan 21st


At Come to the Table (CTTT), each meal is made fresh in our WRBC Kitchen by our own church family.

Our desire is to create a space for our church family to get to know one another casually over a shared meal (It helps that we put on name tags as we enter our auditorium!).

This winter we are trying something new with CTTT.  Instead of having a weekly meal each Wed till Easter (10 suppers), we’ve decided to have CTTT the 1st & 3rd Wednesday of each month until May 6th (8 meals)!

This change will allow us to enjoy CTTT into the spring while lessening the load of our Kitchen teams.

If you’re interested, we’d love to have you join one of our four CTTT Kitchen teams (generally serving twice a season). Just express your desire to a kitchen staff and they’ll help make the needed connections from there.

At CTTT, you’re always welcome – but never expected . . . join us whenever you can. We’d love to share this experience with you. We encourage you to invite your friends and family to join us so that they can experience the love of God among us as well.

In order to help us order the proper amount of food, we ask that you register for each meal the Sunday prior. And if you forget to register, still join us as we always prepare for a few walk-ins.
