A shared commitment to change lives

We see the need for physical and spiritual change in the world and aspire to address it. Our incredible team of staff offer experience, passion, and commitment to global projects supporting communities in need.

We are all hungry for life

Hungry For Life has its roots in a monthly interchurch worship event called Shekinah. Initially a ministry of Chilliwack Alliance Church, Shekinah grew to bring together hundreds of people from many different churches and denominations with the same passion: to know the power and presence of Jesus.

As Shekinah developed, the core leadership was led by the Word of God that its worship must be expressed in much more than music. “Worshiping with our lives” became the mandate, guided by the biblical principles in 2 Chronicles 7:14 and Isaiah 58:10. The ministry of Shekinah began to engage in international relief projects as an outflow of a renewed and passionate relationship with Jesus Christ. With more and more opportunities to lead people to experience and to demonstrate the love of Jesus, it became obvious that the vision for this work should encompass more than one church and that an organizational structure would be needed to facilitate this vision.

We see the need for physical and spiritual change in the world and aspire to address it. Our incredible team of staff offer experience, passion, and commitment to global projects supporting communities in need.

...and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.

Isaiah 58:10

...if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

2 Chronicles 7:14
