A "Rest in His Presence" house event is an intimate evening of prayer songs, prayer, story telling, and time in the Word. It can be arranged with existing cell groups or you can host it with others the Lord may put on your heart. It's great to begin by sharing a meal together with everyone bringing something. It usually will last a couple of hours and a 7:30 to 9:30 PM time frame works well excluding the meal if that is happening. We recommend you share with folks this website so they can get an idea of who we are. Praying for your event night is highly suggested and you can count on us and our prayer partners joining you in this prior to your event. The night is all about His agenda and it is a time for us all to just "rest". Hebrews 4:7 and 10 says, "Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts."..."Let us, therefore make every effort to enter that rest." Psalm 46:10 says, "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." We look forward to hearing from you!


December 6th we went near Smith Falls for our first Rest in His Presence house event. What a blessing it was to fellowship with the folks there. We were a little overwhelmed to find out that twenty-two people would be attending. The night started with a wonderful pot blessing and then we moved into Kevin and Rachel Wills' (amazing hosts with the gift of hospitality) great room for the rest of the evening. The Lord led us in many directions with a few surprises along the way. We want to thank all who were were there as well as Shawn and Kathy O'neill for organizing it.












Rest in His presence began in London, Ontario in the fall of 2000. about ten or twelve of us began to get together on Wednesday nights with no agenda but His. I would lead us in some songs and then share the gospel. The Lord stirred our hearts and some folks experienced radical conversions. We drew very close as we worshiped and spent time in His word together every week. In June of 2001 a number were baptized and declared by public testimony their desire to become all His.
