Marlin and Susan Kroeker have a passion for sharing the love of Jesus with the lost and equipping believers to be disciple-makers.
Responding to God’s call to ministry, the couple stepped out in faith in 2003 and began their adventure. Three years later, Marlin left his career in law enforcement to pursue their calling full-time. The two completed a Discipleship Training School with Youth With A Mission (YWAM), then joined an evangelistic power team called Team Xtreme. This ministry took them around the world preaching the Gospel, seeing many come to a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Due to Covid restrictions, the Kroekers have had to reduce their international travel. However, this has opened the door for them to focus on local evangelism and discipleship. Based in Vernon, BC they actively share the gospel throughout the Okanagan and have started a home church. Their heart’s desire is to be a catalyst for evangelism and leadership training through their teaching and preaching ministry. Their vision includes the establishment of a training centre in the area that will equip workers for the Harvest. Their ultimate calling is to pursue revival and equip the Church in evangelism and discipleship.
Marlin and Susan continue to work with Team Xtreme and participate in evangelistic campaigns with them. They are also involved in sharing the gospel through Chariots of Light, a travelling evangelistic motorcycle team.
