To Whom It May Concern:

Re: Face to Face Ministires and Ken Yasinski

This letter of recommendation is given at the request of Mr. Ken Yasinski as he approaches dioceses, parishes and different groups with the offer of programs through Face-to-Face Ministries of which he is the Team Leader.

Centred in Saskatoon, Face-to-Face Ministries has been conducting youth retreats and presentations both within this diocese and in serveral other dioceses of Western Canada. They have been doing so since 2003 and have built a solid experience of evangelization that has touched the hearts and lives of many young people. This is done through joyful praise and worship music, through vibrant preaching faithful to the Catholic teaching, through personal testimonies, through prayer ministry, through eucharist and eucharistic adoration. They have brought Jesus Christ and his message of love and truth to many young people either strengthening a faith already present or else bringing to a conversion of heart and ways. In doing so, they have built a strong team and a strong community of support for this ministry.

I offer my recommendation and blessing to their ministry. I encourage those interested in availing themselves of the Services of Face-to-Face Ministries to especially prepare well for their coming to your community by seeking a description of the content, format and style of the retreat or presentation and by planning the follow up in terms of your own on-going youth ministry.

If you have any further questions please feel free to contact my office.

Sincerely in Christ

Most Rev. Albert LeGatt
Bishop of Saskatoon
