About High Octane Ministries

---

We use our passion for high octane motorsports such as drag racing, car shows, snowmobiling, boating and flying planes to reach people where they are. For example our flagship bike we built "Angel Of Life" is entered into car shows across western Canada, driven in various charity runs and for group rides throughout British Columbia, Canada. With the head turning custom airbrushing, this bike draws attention everywhere it goes. We are excited to announce that we have been invited to participate in the World Famous Vancouver International Auto Show in 2026. This bike is a door opener into conversations with both believers and non-believers, and allowing us to spread the teachings of Jesus Christ to people of all walks of life. We often say that we go to these events that we enjoy so much to show people that being a follower of Jesus Christ isn't just getting dressed up and going to church on Sunday morning, but it is a way of life.  Currently we are in the process of building a purpose built drag race bike (so we no longer have to race our show bike). We believe that this next project will build upon the success of the "Angle Of Life" bike and allow us to not only turn heads and get the crowd cheering as we race, but ignite faith based conversations and inquiries of our ministry with people of all walks of life. 

As followers of Jesus Christ we are called to feed the poor and offer up what we can to those in need (1 Peter 4:9-19, Luke 6:27-36). We see this need not only in our own community of Kamloops, BC, but everywhere we go. As such we strive to take the extra time when we are out and about to stop and help those in need. Just like we do with the high octane motorsport events to meet people where they are, as we travel along our journeys we are conscientious to be observant to where the Holy Spirit is guiding us and whom we can help. We have had some profound conversations with soo many people as we are guided into sitting and sharing a meal with seemingly random people and listening to their stories and helping as we can.  Since covid, we have seen an increase in the need of meals for the needy, and we are pleased to say that we have been involved with organizing annual holiday meals and reaching people where they are so they can share a warm meal and talk with us. So many people are egger to go abroad to help, but don't take the time out of their lives to cross the street and sit and listen to those in their own community. These experiences of sharing our stories and listening to the stories of others over a warm meal has been a blessing not only in the lives of others but for ourselves as well. 

In addition, we strongly believe in building community engagement through mentorship and comradery. As stated in Proverbs 27:17 "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another". People can improve each other through interactions, challenges, and feedback, just as two pieces of iron can sharpen each other. We also uphold Proverbs 17:17 "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity". This verse highlights the value of a true friend and a brother, emphasizing that a true friend is always loving, and a brother is especially helpful in times of difficulty. Through these core values, we can build a stronger community and improve the lives of those around us. 

As many people are aware that Christians serve mission trips abroad to help spread the Gospel, build schools or orphanages, and help in disaster areas. We strive to be involved in this process as well. In 2024, we offered 2 full and 2 partial sponsorships for people seeking to participate in mission trips abroad. One of the annual missions that we are proud to be a part of is with the Kamloops Christian School, as they have an annual missions trip to Central America. This trip involving students and chaperones is a great charity cause as they not only evangelize, but also help build projects for those in need. In addition, we are continually meeting new people who share their testimonies and what they are doing as Christians. Through that we have found people to sponsor as they continue their journeys.
