Lighthouse Members Breakfast – Building Fellowship
This past weekend, we had a wonderful time at our Lighthouse Members Breakfast. It was more than just a meal—it was a time of connection, laughter, and strengthening the bonds that make our church family so special.
From shared conversations around the table to moments of encouragement, the atmosphere was filled with unity and joy. These gatherings remind us that church is not only about what happens in the sanctuary, but also about the relationships we build with one another.
We are thankful for every member who came out and contributed to such a meaningful time together. We look forward to many more moments of fellowship like this as we continue growing together as a body.
“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” – Psalm 133:1

We are filled with great joy and gratitude as we celebrate a significant milestone in the life and ministry of our Pastor, Stephen Hogan. On March 19, 2026, he was approved for an Ordination License marking this his second ordination—this time with the United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI) through the Quebec District.

Ordination is more than a title or a ceremony; it is a recognition of calling, character, faithfulness, and proven ministry. For Pastor Hogan, this moment represents the culmination of years of dedication, perseverance, and unwavering commitment to the work of God.

For over a decade, Pastor Hogan has faithfully labored in ministry, serving with humility, preaching the truth of God’s Word, and leading with a shepherd’s heart. This ordination is especially meaningful because it reflects a journey marked by patience and endurance. After 12 years of proving, growing, and remaining steadfast, God has once again affirmed His call upon Pastor Hogan’s life.

Throughout this journey, there have been challenges, seasons of waiting, and moments that required deep trust in God’s timing. Yet through it all, Pastor Hogan has remained faithful—never losing sight of the calling placed upon him.

This second ordination is not just a personal achievement; it is a victory for our entire church family. We have witnessed firsthand the sacrifice, the prayers, and the consistent dedication that have led to this moment. We rejoice together, knowing that God is continuing to order his steps and expand his ministry.

As a church, we are incredibly blessed to be led by a pastor who walks in integrity, preaches with conviction, and serves with genuine love. We believe this new chapter will bring even greater impact, deeper anointing, and expanded opportunities to reach souls.

Pastor Hogan, we honor you today. We celebrate your faithfulness, your perseverance, and your unwavering commitment to the call of God. Your journey inspires us, and your leadership strengthens us.
​
We look forward with expectation to all that God will continue to do through your life and ministry.
Congratulations on your ordination—we rejoice with you

​It is with earthly sorrow but heavenly joy that we remember Sister Victoria Thomas, a faithful servant of God and one of the foundational pillars of Lighthouse Tabernacle Apostolic.

Sister Victoria transferred to our ministry in 2014 from BUC of Montreal, with the blessing of her then intern Pastor, Rev. Beresford Galespie. She was present for our very first service on Sunday, May 4, 2014, and played an integral role in our early days. On Saturday, May 2, 2015, during our first anniversary celebration, she became the first appointed minister of Lighthouse — a testament to her dedication, humility, and deep love for the Lord.

She also served faithfully on our Board of Directors, offering wisdom and guidance that helped shape the direction of our ministry in its formative years.

As a worship leader, Sister Victoria ushered many into the presence of God through her anointed singing, heartfelt devotion, and fervent prayers. Beyond the platform, she worked diligently behind the scenes — helping to organize our first-ever church banquet in October 2014, which was a tremendous success.

Sister Victoria was truly instrumental in the early days of Lighthouse, laying a strong foundation of holiness through prayer, service, and unwavering faith.

Although she returned to her home church in 2016, we remain deeply grateful to God for the time, love, and labor she invested into our ministry. Though she has now entered her eternal reward, her impact continues — a lasting testimony of faithfulness, love, and devotion to the Kingdom of God.

Congratulations to brother Hopeton on his baptism.  

Today, we celebrate a remarkable woman of faith and strength, Mother Carmen Dryden, on her 90th birthday!

When Lighthouse Tabernacle first began, Mother Dryden graciously opened her doors and allowed us to use her facility for our very first month of services. Though our time there was short, it was divinely orchestrated by God to position us for the greater things He had in store. What seemed like a closed door was truly the Lord’s way of establishing us into the church family we are today.

Mother Dryden, your willingness, kindness, and obedience to the Lord’s leading made you a part of our story and foundation. For that, we honor you and thank God for your life.

Ninety years is a testimony of God’s grace and faithfulness, and we pray that this milestone birthday is filled with joy, love, and abundant blessings.
​
From all of us at Lighthouse Tabernacle Apostolic Church, Happy Birthday, Mother Dryden! You are deeply appreciated.

Congratulations to this lovely couple of their baptism.

Honoring Faithful Servants Who Strengthen the Body of Christ
 
Purpose:
The Lighthouse Impact Award is presented annually to an individual who has demonstrated a Christ-centered life of faithful service, sacrificial generosity, and spiritual impact within the ministry of Lighthouse. This award is not about recognition for its own sake but about honoring the example of those who quietly and consistently reflect the love, humility, and faithfulness of Jesus in the life of the church.
 
Criteria for Selection:
The recipient will be someone who embodies the heart of true ministry in the following ways:
 
🔹Faithfulness in Presence
“Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” — 1 Corinthians 4:2
The individual consistently attends services, prayer meetings, and church functions, modeling reliability, commitment, and a genuine desire for the betterment of this ministry.
 
🔹Sacrificial Generosity
“God loves a cheerful giver.” — 2 Corinthians 9:7
They support the ministry through regular and sacrificial financial giving, not for recognition purposes but out of love for this ministry and a desire to see it advance.
 
🔹Servant Leadership
“Whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant.” — Matthew 20:26
The recipient gives their time and energy to serve in practical ways — whether through teaching, ushering, cleaning, evangelism, administration, or other vital roles — with humility and joy.
 
🔹Spiritual Integrity
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” — Matthew 5:16
Their life bears the fruit of the Spirit. They are peacemakers, encouragers, and examples of holiness and love. They build others up and submit to spiritual leadership with a teachable spirit.
 
🔹Impact on the Body
“From whom the whole body fitly joined together… maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.” — Ephesians 4:16
This person makes a tangible difference — not just through what they do, but in how their presence, prayers, and participation uplift the church as a whole.
 
✨A Legacy of Service
While this award replaces the former Walk-A-Thon fundraising award, it carries forward the spirit of sacrifice, dedication, and contribution — now focused on the eternal impact made through ministry. It serves as a reminder that every act of love and faithfulness matters in the eyes of God.

Three filled with the Holy Ghost and two baptized!

Congratulations to Chantel and Ashley on their recent baptisms.

In Loving Memory of Collin Dixon

We thank God for the impact he made on our congregation and the legacy he leaves behind.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
