This Podcast is the recorded teaching ministry of Comox Pentecostal Church located in the heart of the Comox Valley.
It is our privilege to bring to you recordings of messages preached from the pulpit of Grace Baptist Church. Our objective is to faithfully communicate God’s Word so that our lives are not left the same, but are changed into Christ’s likeness as we grow in grace and in the knowledge of Him.
Podcast for Via Comox Valley
A Year on the Farm is all about my journey as a female small-scale farmer on Vancouver Island in BC, Canada. This weekly show reveals what life is really like on a small farm and all that we are learning from the land. I share my experience and connect you with other female farmers to learn how to grow beautiful food, manage a small farm, and feed our communities. You can find us at Gather Farm & Kitchen in the Comox Valley, or online at http://www.gatherfarmandkitchen.com
Get the latest news from Victoria, BC's fastest growing news organization. Our in-depth interviews and daily updates will keep you posted on everything to know on Vancouver Island.
We're a little different than other Ghost story podcasts because we tell the actual stories, with the actual history in the actual place. As an author and ghost walk guide I have so many stories to share and I can't wait to share them with you.
Holding Heritage champions deeper understanding & appreciation of Chinese-Vietnamese Heritage in North America. We focus on Chinese-Vietnamese refugee stories, family relationships, bridging generational gaps and cultural identity. Explore with us through thoughtful storytelling, open and honest conversation, helpful resources, and fun projects. Thank you so much for listening!
