Tell Your Story
By Janaya Hirsch Five years ago, I was sitting on a rickety church pew at a Thursday night youth gathering, when my youth Pastor flip to a slide promoting our church’s “2013 Mexico Missions Trip” with One Life. A spark ignited in my soul that night which hasn’t gone out since. Ministry isn’t a moment […]
Where the Streets Have No Name
By Rob Wall It’s 3:00am, and I can’t sleep. It’s probably because I’m getting older…yet, I’m getting older! I’m not sleeping, because the Lord continues to place on my heart hard things. The people of Mexico, this ministry, and our staff consume my thoughts. They sit on the front lines of darkness and still find […]
Springtime in San Quintin
By Heather Molina Our spring season has come and gone, and though we had no groups this year, there was certainly no lack of activity! We spent our spring working on the House of Refuge process, planning for summer groups & ministry, and executing our two biggest activities this month – Project Unity, and our […]

No Other Way
No Other Way It has been so humbling to witness how the Lord is moving in the San Quintin Valley. The stories and emails of lives changed continue to come in…and it’s not always through our organization, but through the Pastors who have become our friends and partners. We assist, but they always do the […]

Many people are led to believe before a person goes to serve in missions, they need to have all their finances and a secure retirement package in place, and also need endless hours of […]
Only Jesus
I am overwhelmed by the love of Jesus. Forgiven and free He changed my life. All John 8:32 and Keith Green stuff. We live in challenging times… I had an interesting discussion with Neil, Darcy and Brenda at the One Life office at Chilliwack Baptist Church this month. The recent increases in the cost of […]
Guess We Die a Fool
By Rob Wall Sigmund Freud wrote: “Religion is an illusion and it derives its strength from the fact that it falls in with our instinctual desires.” James 1:27 says, “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from […]
His Provision Continues
The story of One Life One Chance Ministries started 23 years ago with a simple trip to Baja California. It was born in the discovery every person has ever experienced on a missions trip…a new worldview. For us, it was a progression of things, but I will never forget a sign that led to a […]
Complete Unity
John 17:23 “May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” (Jesus Christ) As we focus on bringing the Pastors together to build unity through prayer meetings, building projects and joint outreaches, I am seeing that they need […]
