OILFIELD CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP

CALGARY CHAPTER

Our Focus: Oilfield Worker Support

You are cordially invited to the 2025 
Calgary Spring Breakfast Event
April 3, 2025
Location: The Calgary Petroleum Club
319 5 Ave SW, Calgary, AB T2P 0L5 

Doors open at 6:30 am
Meeting from 7:00 am - 8:00 am

Our focus areas is to bring the message of the Gospel to Oilfield Workers that are working away from home.

While most camps have taken great measures to make the camp experience as positive as possible, some of the issues oilfield workers face are unavoidable, and isolation is one of the main issues oilfield workers have to deal with.

 

Isolation from:

  • family, spouses and children

  • their social network, their friends and work colleagues

  • their home community, recreational activities and local events for family and personal development

 

Other issues are:​

  • Difficulty integrating into the family routine when a work shift is over

  • Troubled finances

  • Stress caused by unemployment as projects and jobs start and end

  • Harsh weather conditions at the worksite

  • Fatigue caused by long work hours

  • Travel fatigue, due to time spent traveling to the worksite

  • Exposure to substance abuse and pornography

  • Boredom

  • Poor dietary choices that may lead to health issues

In some ways, it’s similar to being in jail, only with better facilities, great food - and the pay is amazing!


There is a solution!

The Christian Oilfield Fellowship puts Bibles, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, into camps and into the hands of those experiencing camp life. We pray that these Bibles will reach everyone that needs to know Jesus as their personal Savior.

Tim’s Message:

Called, Equipped, Sent

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” - Jeremiah 29:11

About Tim:

Tim Goodwin is a native Calgarian who spent 32 years supplying cabling and technology to the oilfield before recognizing God’s call on his life.

 

At age 54, Tim and his family experienced a Nehemiah 2:18 moment as God set them on a course of rebuilding.  The Lord firmly changed Tim’s career path and sent him back to school.

 

Upon completing his Master of Christian Studies at Canadian Baptist Theological in Cochrane, the Lord led Tim to Hope Mission where he serves in Community Relations.

 

Tim is passionate about the growth and edification of kids and youth, particularly those in challenging circumstances.

Finding God on Route 316 is a devotional for workers in the Oilfield.

 

Thanks to your support, we can place this resource in the hands of workers in the oilpatch.  Get your copy at the next breakfast!

Do you want to distribute Bibles? We are always looking for "boots on the ground" to distribute bibles.

We are looking for people to place Bibles in common areas and lobbies of camps, or to place in the reception area of their business. Perhaps you want to have  few Bibles on hand to distribute. If would like to help out, please contact us and we'll set you up.

Go to our contact page to sign up.

 

Thank you so much for your help.

If you are seeking a new life

If you have not made a commitment to Jesus as Lord of your life, God has led you here to show you that there is a group of people that are here to help. 

 

Jesus is waiting for you to come to Him. Do it today, and start a new life, for now and eternity.

Matthew 11:28 (NLT)
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
