The Migrant Workers Ministry exists because of the vision and passion God placed in the heart of Pastor Carlos Carrion, for introducing the Gospel to Spanish-speaking farm workers in the Delta, Surrey and Langley areas.

Pastor Carlos, his wife Veronica and a team of volunteers support these workers as they adjust to a new culture. They help with medical appointments, translation, preparing meals for the workers and organizing various outreach events throughout the year. Every request for help is considered an opportunity to build relationships and to minister to the men with the love of Christ. Another aspect of Carlos’ ministry is maintaining communication with the workers, even after they go back to their home countries. He has had the opportunity to visit workers and their families both in Guatemala and Mexico.

Chuck and Jocelyn work for Wycliffe Bible Translators of Canada and support Bible Translation efforts through training others in linguistics work and supporting community language development work. They each have a Master of Arts in Linguistics and have worked with Indigenous communities in Canada to support language revitalization efforts.

Their main reason for joining Wycliffe Bible Translators as linguistics specialists is that approximately 1 in 5 people around the globe do not have access to the Bible in the language they understand best. Chuck and Jocelyn care deeply about supporting efforts that increase this access through partnering with local church communities requesting Bible translation work.

Forrest and Mandy live in the Himalayas with their daughter, Lucy and son, Finneas. They have lived there for three years and say they have many more to come. They primarily work with youth and young adults through a program that teaches values like faith, family, extravagant love, and integrity. They want to see God’s love transform lives in the Himalayas.

This family of five works with the mission organization Pioneer Bible Translators. They live in a refugee camp to translate the Bible into a minority language and share the gospel with unreached people groups. They are just beginning this process and plan to stay with the ministry until a whole Bible is translated. This process typically takes about 25 years. They love getting to work creatively to make the Scriptures accessible, especially to the illiterate population in the area.

For over 6 years, Sarah has been working alongside vulnerable families in Uganda, Africa. Some ministries she’s a part of include training youth leaders in discipleship, supporting local pastors, and offering life skills training.

She loves to serve alongside marginalized communities and works with the community on ways to sustain families during particularly tough seasons.

Her time is divided between the city of Kampala and the rural district of Kasese. This year she will be aiding the restart of a Christian school called Rwentutu in West Uganda. Sarah will function as a liaison to help strategize moving forward and expanding their reach into untouched villages offering Christian education, microfinance groups and a community clinic.

From 2020-2023, Kaylie was very involved at Village, both through the Immerse MDiv program and on staff at the Surrey location. She is deeply passionate about people being transformed by the love of Jesus and learning to live out of their own love for Him. She felt called to serve with Operation Mobilization (OM) on their Doulos Hope Ship in Southeast Asia until the fall of 2025.

Onboard, the crew share knowledge, help and hope in and around the world’s port cities. Since 1970, OM’s Ship Ministry has brought the world’s largest floating bookfairs to nearly 500 individual ports in more than 150 countries. Over the last five decades, more than 49 million visitors have come aboard their vessels. While the ship is in port, their teams visit communities to offer practical help and the hope of the gospel alongside local churches and other local partner agencies.

“After all of the learning and experience in life and ministry I’ve had so far, I’ve come to believe there are only two main reasons why we’re here: to make our decision for Christ and to help others make theirs.” – Kaylie Arsenault
