With open arms, BC welcomes the Martins!

British Columbia is excited to welcome new Divisional Commander, Major Larry Martin, and his wife Major Velma Martin, coming on after serving in the Maritimes for the past four years.

Prior, they have made stops in Parry Sound, Ont., London, England, Hamilton, Calgary, Corner Brook, N.L., Regina and a previous stop in Halifax, building the church in Fairview around 20 years ago.

Major Martin shares, “British Columbia is another very beautiful region of the country. It can match the Maritimes in terms of beauty for sure. We’ve been to British Columbia a number of times, so we’re familiar with a certain amount of that province. We have a good staff there. Well trained, experienced people that will work with us. The other thing is that right now we’re about a seven-day drive from our daughters and grandchildren, and when we go to Vancouver, we will be only a one-day drive. So that’s exciting for us.”
