As 2024 begins, Pastor Brian Matthew Markle looks to the future with optimism and a spirit of togetherness, encouraging the community to join him in embracing this new year with hope, unity, and a shared vision for positive change.

Reflecting on the past year in Ottawa, Pastor Brian Matthew Markle has shown remarkable resilience and perseverance. His journey has been marked by a challenging battle against an online cyberbully, where lies and untruths have made it difficult for him to disseminate his message effectively. This online cyberbully in the upper Ottawa Valley has been relentless for over a decade, putting him and his family at risk. But Pastor Markle fought on.

Despite these obstacles, Pastor Markle's faith has not wavered. Through the grace of God and the strength he draws from our Lord Jesus, he has continued to fight on with unwavering dedication.

Looking ahead, Pastor Markle remains steadfast in his commitment to the community. In partnership and alongside addiction and mental health professionals, he continues to offer invaluable support to those in need, bringing hope and healing to many.

Addressing homelessness in Ottawa and the upper Ottawa Valley remains a key focus for the Pastor this Year. Everyone deserves a home in Canada.

His ongoing involvement in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is a cornerstone of his life's work, providing guidance and support to fellow alcoholics seeking peace and recovery within the program.

Guiding his mission and reinforcing his message are the words of the Bible, which serve as his motto:

Matthew 17:20: “Nothing will be impossible.”
Matthew 19:26: “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Mark 10:27: “With men it is impossible, but not with God.”
Luke 1:37: “With God nothing will be impossible.”
These passages sum up Pastor Markle's unwavering belief in the power of faith and the possibilities that open up when we place our trust in God.

I wish you and your family a Happy and safe New Year in 2024.

Pastor Brian Markle.
