About
The Canadian Apostolic & Prophetic Network is a direct division of International Christian Contacts Ministries, providing covering, mentorship, training, equipping and charging a new generation of present day five-fold ministers into the works of the ministry. After being in the ministry for over thirty-five years, Apostles Bart & Carmen DeVries have a passion to see the five-fold ministry offices restored back into the church, recognizing the importance of building relationship and providing mentorship to not only established ministers, but especially to a new generation of saints, whom experience the calling of God on their lives in any of the five-fold offices.
We believe that all people have a desitiny in and calling on their live and can embrace who they are in Christ Jesus,
can define their future, and can change the world.
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we could walk in them."
Ephesians 2:10 (NASB)
Our Vision
Raising up a generation of Mighty Warriors for the Kingdom of God.
It is our desire to bring the Body of Christ together in unity of the faith, and restore the foundations of the church.
We believe that each person has a calling on and a destiny in their lives to serve God and our Lord Jesus Christ. Through Apostolic & Prophetic ministry we help to identify the calling and destiny of members of the Body of Christ, and in doing so also assist local churches to establish the five-fold ministry in their local congregations.
As the Holy Spirit leads, we are establishing an Apostolic & Prophetic network of like-minded ministers within the Body of Christ to grow together, to equip, to encourage, to teach and hear what God is speaking to the Church in this third reformation of the church - The Saints Movement.
What We Believe
The Canadian Apostolic & Prophetic Network, is a division of International Christian Contacts Ministries (ICCM), and isis an independent non-denominational New Testament Organization. By this we mean that Apostolic & Prophetic ministry is not governed by a particular religious denomination. Instead it is self-governed by its apostles in close relationship with other established apostles and five-fold ministers.. It's future leaders, we trust, will be raised from within its ranks. Our position, we feel, is sound Scripturally and was the stance of the church from its earliest inception. Being independent does not indicate that we are exclusive. Our fellowship with other churches and organizations crosses a number of denominational lines. We maintain a relationship of accountability to those placed over us as our apostles.
