The impact of CVM Canada continues to be felt here at home and abroad. Thank you for praying and participating in our events in February!
Our UCVM Mexico spay/neuter team had another successful outreach – investing expertise, prayer, and Jesus’ love into the community of Cuernavaca. We’ll catch up with them in next month’s update.
Meanwhile, 36 people enjoyed a beautiful, relationship-rich retreat with Real Life Real Impact in Saskatchewan. Of these, 20 were students and their spouses – our highest student participation yet!

Two students from OVC reflect on their time at the retreat in our Feature story below. You won’t want to miss it! And please save the dates and make plans to join us for RLRI 2027, February 12-14, 2027, near Guelph, Ontario.
In Psalm 23:1-3, David writes – The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. Part of continuing to make an impact individually and as an organization involves rest and the restoration which comes through it. Our Shepherd has designed us this way. Whether you were able to retreat with us or not, I hope you will take the opportunity to allow Him to lead you into moments of rest and renewal this month.
Serving together,
Lisa

Two Ontario Veterinary College students share from their experiences at Real Life Real Impact in Saskatchewan. Despite some travel hurdles, the weekend was deeply meaningful for them in the areas of work-life balance, mentorship, fun, and fellowship with other believers.
