A New Venture on Gabriola Island, BC
Partnered with Nanaimo Alliance Church and the Christian and Missionary Alliance Pacific District, Gabriola Community Ventures has launched on Gabriola Island, BC, a picturesque community of approximately 4,500 residents. The island is accessed via a 20-minute ferry ride from the coast of Nanaimo, making this a unique location for developing a faith community. Under the co-leadership of Chaplain Gloria Graf Davidson, and Ron Davidson, Gabriola Community Ventures has emerged from a deep sense of calling to serve in this distinctive location. Working with the local community church and other Christian agencies, Ron and Gloria approach this opportunity with a spirit of discernment, discovery and service, as they work to minister to the Spiritual needs of this artistic, new-age based community. Already, they have sensed God’s leading as they see the practical aspects of this New Venture falling into place.
