On April 25, 2021 I was invited to Easter Sunday mass at The Church of God by Pastor Henry Hildebrandt. I was joined by Randy Hillier, Vincent Gircys and Derek Sloan.

It was a beautiful service and one that will forever hold a special place in my heart. What an honour to be asked to come to the front and stand next to these men also speaking out against the tyrannical mandates and lockdowns we were seeing in our communities. 

I was issued a summons (1 of 11), for attending this church service. On September 22nd, I stood in my own private capacity as a woman and was convicted guilty for going against the RAO and fined 10k for attending church, as in their words "I was not just a participant, but leading the way."

I stand on my word I did nothing wrong, am not guilty and caused no harm against anyone. But here we are, where they acknowledge our rights and freedoms have been infringed upon, but with reasonable cause that infringement is allowed. Define reasonable cause? Is there a definition? How vague can this be and what doors does this open to allow more of our rights and freedoms to be trampled because "they say so."

This is not the end. I will be appealing the conviction and charge. I will not allow their bullying tactics to break me or damper my spirit. I trust in God that he uses all situations to bring light and glory to His name and vindication will come.

Here we are Canada, where you can be charged 10k for attending church. I will be appealing and seeking legal counsel. 

I am reaching out to the community to ask for help (which is hard to do) with upcoming legal battles and fees, to appeal this charge and fight against other charges. I will always continue to stand up for our rights and freedoms as Canadian Citizens, to the best of my ability. 

I am so grateful for each and everyone of you and will continue to do my best to serve our community and be a voice, however I can. Thank you for lifting me up, encouraging me, supporting me and keeping me going during these times. I love you all so much and appreciate every single one of you near and far! 

If there is an excess in funds by your glorious generosity, money will be donated to Canadian Frontline Nurses to continue to fight and our legal battles against the College of Nurses of Ontario, our Defamation lawsuit and our Federal lawsuit re the EMA. Your contribution is truly appreciated and means the world to us. 

UPDATES

Update #3

Sorry updates are few and far between. The legal system moves at a snail's pace if not slower.

Today, we met to set a date for my appeal to be heard. Unfortunately for my appeal to be heard, I did have to pay the fine in total, $12,500 as ordered. Our appeal will be heard on October 4th. No further updates on this case.

I still have three more trials coming up two for London and one for Cornwall and will provide more details of dates once set.

I'll be honest I'm growing weary. Like many of you it seems to be one hit after another. It has been forcing me to surrender more to the Lord above and I have been reciting Pslam 35 as comfort and for strength, knowing the Lord will contend for me and whatever the outcome may be He will use to Glorify HIs name.

Canadian Frontline Nurses had filed a defamation lawsuit (libel), in the fall of 2021, we unfortunately lost that case due to a SLAPP motion. Can read more about that here: https://www.theepochtimes.com/nurses-who-opposed-covid-measures-say-slapp-law-turned-on-its-head_4964454.html

The cost awards came back last week and we owe 315k for court costs. There are three of us named in this case and I really don't know what is going to happen at this point. All I know I'm tired. I'm sure you all are.

I have not given up in faith. I know we stood on the right side and did the right thing. 

I know there will be vindication. Right now we just have to get through this current chapter of the story. Which is not over yet. 

Sending so much love to all of you! Will send more updates as they come in. 

You are all appreciated beyond words and I am forever grateful for each and every one of you that continues to support me, believe in me, and keep encouraging me. 

all my Love

Kristen

Update #2

Update on appeal for attending The Church of God April 25th 2021 for Easter Sunday - where I was convicted guilty and fined 10k + 2.5k in court costs.

On March 31st my lawyer Rosy Rumpal and I attended court for our application to have our appeal heard without paying the fine.

The crown prosecutor suggested 5k be paid in order for the appeal to be heard.

The Judge came back with a decision that the full amount of the fine plus the victim fine surcharge ($10,000 + 2,500), be paid in full by June 16th before the appeal will be heard.

We return again June 20th to set a date for the appeal.

It's all in God's hands now.

The true judgment:

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. 

2 Corinthians 5:10 NIV 

The Apostle Paul says in Romans chapter 12, “Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.

Hello everyone,

Sorry for the lengthy time to follow up with an update. I first want to extend my heartfelt appreciation and gratitude to ALL OF YOU! Honestly, I was in tears many times, reading the responses, the prayers, and the overwhelming support I received through GSG, etransfers, and in-person connections.

THANK YOU!!!!! 

For the Lord your God is he who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory.' Deuteronomy 20:4

It took a while to have an official appeal update, but I am happy to share that the application was accepted and the appeal hearing date is to be determined on January 20th, 2023. This is for attending Easter Sunday Service on April 25th, 2021, at The Church of God in Aylmer. I am also happy to announce that I have retained Rosy Rumpal The Lean Lawyer to represent me on my cases. 

Other court updates:

On November 22nd, 2020 I was charged with organizing the London Rally. This charge is still ongoing and was set for trial on Dec 6th and 7th.  I retained Rosy Rumpal for this matter as well and this trial date was postponed. This case is now being moved back to Judicial Pretrial to discuss Charter issues. 

There are still ongoing charges with Waterloo, Cornwall, and another London charge. No further updates on these cases as of yet. 

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I don't take light of this situation or your generosity. It means the absolute world to me. Thank you for standing by me, for your kind words of encouragement, and all of your support! 
I am so blessed to have met so many of you and to be surrounded by such a strong community! 

Isaiah 41:10, God says “fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

THANK YOU!!!
