Bob Kirk It has been a privilege for me to be a part of Samuel’s Mantle as a board member. I honour the work that Murray, Kelly and company do for the betterment and furthering of God’s Kingdom. I have been involved as one of the 1st years to go through the training with Murray and have had my eyes and heart opened up to the Spirit in many dimensions that I did not know God wanted us to enjoy. I have been married for 37 years, am a Christian now since 1973, pastored for 7 years at Langley Vineyard, and now lead with my wife Judy a small group that meets in our home. We have 2 children; our son Sam who is part owner of a Bluetooth communications company and lives in Langley and our daughter Jen, who lives in Edmonton and is expecting our 1st grandchild in the New Year. We have been blessed by our Lord over and over again and we are very thankful that he persisted in his invitation to us to have Him as our Lord and Savior in His Kingdom.
Brian and Carly Fedyshen Married in 2000, after graduating from the University of British Columbia, Brian and Carly got involved in local church ministry. They became youth pastors in 2001 and took their first Samuel’s Mantle course in 2002. What they learned gave them the tools and resources to share their passion for relationship with God through the prophetic, with their church. They saw their youth group and congregation, thrive and grow in intimacy with Jesus through the prophetic. They served in a Youth With A Mission Discipleship Training School, including a trip to Estonia and Latvia where they once again found listening to Jesus to be a spectacular tool in sharing the love of God. They became associate pastors and partnered with Samuel’s Mantle in both live and DVD courses to see their congregation grow in their relationship with Jesus and one another. There were many amazing prophetic journeys along the way. There was also a painful season of loss, and of church breakdown, through which Murray’s mentor-ship and friendship helped them to come through; choosing (and experiencing) forgiveness, healing and love. They were called out of vocational church work, into a season of family, politics and business where it has been fascinating to see the prophetic in action. They are now coming full circle, serving their good friend’s church plant and functioning once again in local church ministry. They consider Murray a teacher, mentor, prophet and friend and are honoured to be on the board for Samuel’s Mantle.
