James and Colleen Guskjolen
Thank you for taking the time to visit our
website!
Please let me introduce ourselves. Colleen and I have been
married for over 26 years and have one son, Joshua, who is
married to Tyla. On November 20th
they presented us with a baby
girl--our FIRST GRANDCHILD!!! Obviously we're psyched about
this! Her name is Taija-Lynn (pronounced Tay ah). It is our
purpose in life to spoil her. I'm taking that seriously!
Already the credit cards are white-hot and smoking.
Colleen and I have enjoyed our life of ministry involvement.
We have planted churches, served as missionaries and as
District Superintendent of Saskatchewan. As well, James has
served on various Boards with a number of different
organizations. One of the other things we have enjoyed is
having had the privilege of extensive travel. The Lord has
blessed us with the privilege of teaching and preaching in
Bible camps, leadership seminars, ministry retreats and
missionary conferences throughout the world.
I (James) get a rush out of visioning and team-building. It
is great to see what can be done then to put together a group
of people that bring things to fulfillment. My thrill is to
see people rise to a higher level of leadership than they
thought they could and to do more than they thought
imaginable.
Colleen has a strong ministry to women. It seems God has
anointed her with the ability to see women grow into their
destinies. She is a popular speaker and is able to quickly
develop relationships with other women. I call her a “social
butterfly” because she loves being with people. For her, life
is a good reason to have fun.
Both of us like to challenge people to stretch themselves in
faith believing that faith “has its payday”. Additionally, we
enjoy helping people live lives that “go beyond” their normal
routine and into the plans God has for them.
As you flip through the pages of our website, it is my belief
you will be inspired and motivated to involvement within the
Latin America and Caribbean region. Let us know what you
think and how you desire to be involved. We’d be happy to
help you!
