change is elusive.
Have you ever tried to change something in your life, only to have things return back to normal? I mean, sure you started out pretty determined, but after a while, you settled back in and nothing really changed. Scary when you consider that God has called us to be agents of His change in the world. The choices we make in life are essential to change – but lasting change never comes by simply making the right choices. It’s a lot deeper than going through the motions of doing the “right things.” Real change begins with a transformation in our belief system about who we are. Lasting change flows from our being. rise & BE the change.
Register for Altitude this year and be empowered in your call.
Press On,
Paul Dunk

Speakers:
ALLAN MEYER:
Allan and his wife Helen led Careforce Church in Australia for 26 years and saw it grow from a few hundred to a church of 2000. In 1992, Allan and Helen established Careforce Lifekeys, a ministry focused on bringing healing to broken people. In 2004, Allan completed his doctorate by producing a program [Valiant Man, which is taught here at Koinonia] designed to restore and fortify the moral and spiritual integrity of men. Over 25,000 men have already experienced this program. In 2009, Allan left the staff of Careforce Church to devote his time to the ministry of Careforce Lifekeys, traveling extensively throughout Australia and the world at large.
PAUL YUKE:
Paul Yuke is a “pastor’s pastor,” encouraging and motivating leaders across Canada to fulfill God’s calling in their lives and ministry. He served for 16 years as co-founder and co-pastor of Rock Church in Nova Scotia, which became the largest, fastest growing church in Atlantic Canada. Paul and his wife Elaine also planted and led Toronto City Church for 20 years beginning in 1987, and remains a key influencer of Canadian churches and leaders today.
STEVE FLEMING, CONFERENCE HOST:
Steve and Beth Fleming, our senior pastors, have served Koinonia since founding it in 1984. The church grew as they began to preach the Word and share the vision that God had put in their hearts. Over the years, their faithfulness has brought constant and steady growth to Koinonia as they continue in their passion for God and compassion for people. Their influence reaches far beyond Koinonia to many other pastors, churches and ministries throughout Canada.
