Good Neighbours

Our local outreach programming is called “Good Neighbours”. This is a dynamic ministry that works to see lifelong change in our most immediate community. Through Good Neighbours, CRCF provides food programs, support groups, and other practical assistance to those in need. It is the goal of Good Neighbours that our community comes to embrace the love of Jesus as they see it in action.

If you need any assistance or would like to join our Good Neighbours volunteer team please contact us at goodneighbours@crcfchurch.com.

 The Community Fridge

The Community Fridge is a program of Good Neighbours that meets the physical needs of our community throughout Burnaby, New Westminster, and Burquitlam by providing them with fresh local foods provided in part by our amazing partners like Cobbs Bread. This ministry helps plug in many new members into our church and help them get the services they need such as Cariboo Road Coaching, Beginnings Course, Alpha, Freedom Session and more.

As a church, we strive to take care of all the members of our community! This ministry is theologically rooted in the parable of the lost sheep. God has never given up on us and we plan on following his example by reaching those who have yet to open their hearts to the Holy Spirit. We will love on our community by taking care of them, emulating Jesus’ example.

Across Canada
Partners in Hope is a Christian-based community group based in Vancouver, BC, Canada, dedicated to supporting victims of harmful circumstances and dependencies. In prayerful presence with those who are most vulnerable, they seek to raise up individuals who will wholeheartedly serve God in ministry that encourages and supports others to become faithful followers of Jesus Christ.

Partners in Hope’s initiatives include producing Christian 12-step guides for individual or group use, facilitating Prison Ministry chapels to offer support and friendship to women in prison, posting daily video blogs for meditation and prayer, writing and distributing daily meditation booklets to prisons, recovery centers, and individuals, providing one-to-one counseling support throughout the week, and offering online resources such as low-cost housing and employment opportunities.

They have successfully restored community, Christian life skills and most importantly, hope, to thousands since their journey began in 1994!

South America Partner

Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
In 2024, we have been actively ministering in the Dominican Republic, establishing "Cariboo Road Outreach" to serve children, teens, and young adults. Our mission is to foster spiritual growth, support their walk with the Lord, and reach out to their families and communities. Through this initiative, we are meeting both spiritual and physical needs while sharing the gospel.

Although we’ve connected with several churches in the area, we are also forming our own dedicated team and program under Cariboo Road Outreach.

Located in the Guayacanes area, southeast of Santo Domingo, we are exploring options to acquire property to create a center for ministry operations. Our vision includes hosting an annual kids’ camp, ministering to families, and strengthening the local church through the next generation.

In February 2025, we are bringing a team to explore infrastructure, including establishing an office to serve as a base for ongoing missions. Pastor Reg led a successful outreach kids camp this year, which included preaching and teaching in the area, laying a strong foundation for the future of Cariboo Road Outreach.

Europe Partner

Jarovnice, Slovakia
Pastor Marek Olah is a Roma (Gypsy) minister working out of Jarovnice in eastern Slovakia. There is an explosion of the Holy Spirit amongst the persecuted Roma peoples throughout Slovakia and we are honoured to support the furthering of God’s kingdom there. This ministry began in 2017 with 6 people and has rapidly grown to over 150 new believers! The church plant in Jarovnice has helped to heal their community in physical ways through cleaning programs and addiction recovery but also, more importantly, has restored hope to many families who were previously in the dark.

We directly support the operating costs for Pastor Marek. One of the amazing things about this ministry is that it is focused on a cultural group rather than a nationality. The Roma are a severely oppressed people all throughout Europe and by the saving grace of God we will see this ministry flourish. In Pastor Marek’s own words “It is when things are darkest that Gods love shines brightest, and hopelessness gives way to light”.

Our ministry in Thailand is spearheaded by an amazing missionary named Linda Hermann. She distributes funding into different child sponsorship programs that are focused on educating and building life skills for the local underprivileged youth throughout Thailand. Linda also partners with various ministries to offer assistance with vision, programming, leadership, and ministry execution.

The leadership development program has helped kids from childhood all the way through to university graduation who would have otherwise been unable to receive an education.
