About This Site:
From Faytene, "This is really my 'everything' web site. It's a bit of a personal on-line play ground. Faytene.ca is not a ministry web-site at this point but simply a place where people can connect with me directly, where I can post things related to my passion and convictions, a couple entreprenurial initiatives (not related to ministry) and where I can let you know about some amazing events that I am aware of. Enjoy!"

About Faytene:
Faytene has been in full-time Christian service since 1997.
She began in ministry by serving extensively on the inner-city streets of Vancouver leading and establishing outreaches to serve the poor, homeless and/or addicted through her home church and in co-operation with various other inner-city ministries.
In her first two years of official full time Christian service she also functioned as city wide director of Neighbour Link Vancouver, a ministry of World Vision Canada which mobilizes churches to serve the needy in their community in practical ways (food delivery, visitation, home care etc.). During these years NeighbourLink experienced exponential growth with many new churches being mobilized to be the hands and feet of Christ to the city of Vancouver.
In 2000, after being miraculously healed of a terminal illness (auto immune hepatits), she transitioned to oversees missionary/humanitarian work. During this period she served in West Africa for 7 months under Hope for the Nations in a rescue mission for malnourished children. In this term she planted a church, established a mercy ministry that is thriving to this day and saw multitudes of people healed, delivered and come to Christ.
Since returning to Canada, Faytene's focus has been on advancing the gospel of Jesus Christ, and Godly values, there.
Faytene is currently regarded as one of the most influential young Christian spokespersons in Canada for Christian values. Her first mass distributed book, Stand On Guard, has become a national best seller through self distribution and has been accepted to the Parliamentary Library of Canada. Her next mass distributed book, Marked, has recently been released.
Faytene travels extensively teaching and exhorting the Body of Christ to be salt and light in the earth, to carry the fragrance of Christ and to live their lives to the max. In her meetings people regularly come to faith in Christ, experience His Spirit and are healed. The message she brings is always strong, passionate and measured to the word of God. She is also a regular guest on national talk shows.
To date, she has written 3 books, recorded several teaching and worship CDs and produced several art pieces.
Finally, Faytene believes a form of Christianity that is void of passion, fruit or power is not Christianity at all.
Statement of Faith: The Apostles Creed.

Biblical Training: Upon completion of an undergrad at a Simon Fraser University Faytene threw herself into biblical studies. She achieved a 4.33 (A+) average at Pacific Life Bible College into her third year. In this same year she was recruited for a full time ministry position with NeighbourLink Vancouver. At this point, Faytene and her leaders decided it was time to transition and so she stepped down from Bible College and accepted the position. During this time she studied Systematic Theology under her pastor. Since then, Faytene has taken multiple ministry schools and seminars to keep her sharp in the word and spirit.
Accountability:
Faytene walks in strong accountability with her local pastors, legal board and a senior advisory team of recognized national leaders who give input into her life and ministry on a regular basis.
*Notice: Due to the fact that secular media has tried in the past to attend her church on Sunday mornings for reporting purposes against the wishes of her senior pastors, we will not be posting her home church on this web site.

"On August 23, 2008, Faytene Kryskow led “The Cry,” a movement impacting Canada and its Government. Thousands of Canadian standing on the lawn facing the “Peace Tower” heard Faytene describe the pros and cons of four pieces of upcoming legislation. Never have I heard before such gracious, yet powerful wisdom-filled words. Faytene is without doubt the most outstanding spokesperson for the emerging generation of leaders."
James Goll, Author, Dierctor of Prayer Storm & President of Encounters Network
"For years we have had prophetic forerunners who have been declaring a new day is coming. But now a new generation is arising who believe the report and are doing something about it. They say it is time to "Cross on Over!" In fact, some of these new justice riders are already doing something to reverse the moral decay of society. Faytene Kryskow is one of the next generation champions who is leading the charge. I marvel that the courage of this young Joan of Arc for our day. It is an honor to commend to you both the life and ministry..."
