The harvest so far: 12 years, one city, and what comes next.
From two people and one question on a Hamilton street to 20+ weekly outreach teams, a citywide festival with baptisms in the park, and Love on The World. The impact so far — with receipts — and how to partner for the next twelve years.
The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.Luke 10:2
Jesus never said the harvest was small. He said the workers were few — and then, before He sent anyone, He told them to pray for more workers. That order is the whole story of the last twelve years for Katie and me. We prayed. We went. God sent more people than we ever could have recruited.
This site usually counts one thing: SIX33, a brand I am building from zero, which has not launched and has zero verified lives impacted. I keep that number honest on purpose. But there is a second ledger in my life, and it is much older than the brand. It is the ministry. Today I want to open that ledger — what God has done through Love on Hamilton, Love on The World, Jesus Festival, and our work through e3 Canada — with a source beside every number, so you can see it for yourself.
And then I want to ask you to take a seat at the table. Because what comes next is bigger than what came before.
2014: two people, coffee, and one question.
We did not launch a ministry in 2014. We just started showing up. Katie and I walked downtown Hamilton with coffee and one simple question: “Can we pray with you for anything?” No stage. No strategy. No budget. Just a conviction that the people everyone walks past are the people Jesus walks toward.
That walk became Love on Hamilton. Practical love first — warm socks in February, a meal, a coat, a ride, presence when someone is at their lowest — and then the deeper conversation that practical love earns the right to have. “Let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth” (1 John 3:18).
The ledger: what God has done, with the receipts.
This site has one rule about numbers: say where they came from and what kind of number they are. So here is the ministry ledger, the same way. Every line is published by the ministry it belongs to, and the sources are listed at the end of this post. Festival figures are early reports from the team, not an audited count — and every one of them is a person with a name.
20+ weekly Love on Hamilton outreach teams — ordinary believers who now go out every week without us needing to be there.
12 Love on The World city outreach groups listed across Ontario and New Brunswick, most meeting weekly.
36 nations covered by Love on The World prayer points, across every continent.
10,000+ people gathered at Gage Park across Jesus Festival Hamilton 2024 and 2025, with 6,000+ hot dogs served freely.
Jesus Festival Hamilton 2026 (early reports): 70+ people gave their lives to Jesus, 50+ baptisms in the middle of the park, and 3,000+ free hot dogs and drinks.
2026 was the first year of Jesus Festival Niagara — and the City of Niagara Falls lit the Falls in yellow, the festival's colour.
Overflow, a Sunday evening service launched in 2022 where the Holy Spirit was given full permission to move.
Jesus Festival: a city park becomes a baptism tank.
Jesus Festival Hamilton is free. No ticket, no cover charge, no catch — a whole city invited to Gage Park for worship, the Gospel, food, families, and a Kids Zone. On September 4–5, 2026, it drew a record turnout, with altar calls on both Friday night and Saturday.
And then there was the tank. People lined up in the middle of a public park to be baptized. Coming up out of the water, people said things like “I have no desire for my vape anymore and threw it away,” “My back is healed!” and “I was lost — who would have thought Jesus led me here!” That is what plundering hell looks like. Not a slogan. A person walking out of the water free.
Acts 2 ends with a city noticing: “the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.” A festival is a moment; the follow-up is the mission. That is why the festival hands people on to Love on Hamilton, Love on The World, local churches, and tools like Kingdom Base — so a decision at a bandshell becomes a disciple a year later. And if you want a festival in your city, Jesus Festival Movement exists for exactly that.
Love on The World: the same heart, in more cities.
What started on one Hamilton street is now Love on The World — a Great Commission movement making disciples who make disciples. City groups meet weekly for street outreach, prayer, and practical compassion. A live movement map plots the groups, partners, and gatherings. And anyone can start one: pray, gather two or three believers, pick a place and a time, and apply.
Jesus did not say “make converts in your city.” He said “go therefore and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). Twelve groups is not the finish line. It is proof the pattern travels.
e3 Canada: evangelize, equip, establish.
Katie and I serve in partnership with e3 Ministry Canada, whose mission is equipping God's people to evangelize His world and establish His church. It is the frame around everything above: not just reaching people, but equipping believers who reach people, and establishing churches that keep multiplying after any one night of outreach ends.
This is what we mean when we say plunder hell and populate heaven. Jesus bound the strong man (Matthew 12:29); His people carry out what was stolen. The enemy is never a person. People are the treasure. Every baptism in that park was a transfer “from the domain of darkness” into “the kingdom of his beloved Son” (Colossians 1:13).
SIX33: a brand built to impact culture — and fuel the harvest.
SIX33 is the brand. The name is Matthew 6:33 — seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added. It began in 2014 as Seek First Brand and is being rebuilt in 2026 as a whole world: limited apparel drops, athletes and creators, events, stories, Motor, Fight, Outpost, and Legends. Its heart is to impact culture for the Kingdom — unashamedly a faith brand, with the door wide open to everyone.
And it is wired to the harvest. In SIX33's own words: a big part of SIX33's heart is raising funds for Love on The World — and as SIX33 grows, the giving grows with it. SIX33 is coming. There is no fake countdown and no announced date; the Inner Circle walks in first. When it does, this site will log it honestly, starting from zero.
Your seat at the harvest.
Luke 10:2 gives the order. Pray first. Then go — or send. Paul called it “partnership in the gospel” (Philippians 1:5), and he believed the fruit counted to the credit of the people who sent him (Philippians 4:17). Nobody does this alone. Every story of a life changed came through a body of people praying, giving, and showing up.
Pray for the harvest and for workers — by name, the way we pray for our partners every day.
Partner monthly through e3 Canada. Monthly partners are what let us plan, and go further.
Go: join Love on Hamilton weekly, find a Love on The World city group, or start one where you live.
Come to Jesus Festival 2027 — and bring someone who has never heard. Get the dates first at JesusFestival.ca.
Join the SIX33 Inner Circle at SIX33.World and be early to the brand built to fuel this.
Partner for the next 12 years
The harvest is plentiful. Send more workers into it.
Twelve years ago it was two people and a cup of coffee. Today it is weekly teams, city groups, a festival that baptizes people in a public park — and Canada, we believe, on the edge of revival. The next twelve years are bigger. We can't do them alone.

The short versionTwo people and one question became a city-shaking harvest — because people prayed, went, and sent. Pray, go, give, or join: the harvest is plentiful and the next twelve years need workers.
