Meet Pastor Carson Cole (August 6–17)

This August, Willie’s Walk – From Chains to Change is honoured to welcome Pastor Carson Cole to Thetis Island and the Cowichan Valley.

Carson’s life is a powerful testimony of God’s redeeming grace. After overcoming addiction through the saving power of Jesus Christ, he committed his life to sharing the hope and freedom that only Christ can bring. 

Today, Carson serves as a pastor in the Edmonton area and leads street ministry, reaching out to people from every walk of life. He has a special heart for those battling addiction, homelessness, loneliness, and life’s deepest struggles.

Before entering ministry, Carson spent many years as a Canadian recording artist and performing musician, travelling extensively and entertaining audiences in clubs and venues across Canada. With multiple albums to his credit, music remains an important part of his ministry as he shares songs that encourage, inspire, and point people to Jesus.

From August 6–17, Carson will be ministering throughout Thetis Island, Chemainus, Duncan, and Nanaimo, sharing his testimony, music, and the life-changing message of the Gospel. Everyone is welcome to join us at our community gatherings, including live music, fellowship, a beach BBQ, and an ocean baptism celebration.

Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years, have questions about faith, or simply need hope in your life, we warmly invite you to come. There is no pressure—just real people, authentic conversations, inspiring music, and the opportunity to hear how one man’s life was transformed by the love of Jesus Christ.

Hope is real. Freedom is possible. Everyone is welcome.
