At Daystar Christian Centre, the most recurrent word is change. Timely and inspired change is the mark of a healthy church that is alive to the directive of the Holy Spirit. Daystar has evolved over the years, passing through series of changes required for more effective church ministry and by implication a greater impact on the larger society.
In the 1960s, children with special needs in Northern Ontario had nowhere to go once they reached school age. There were very few support groups for these families. In 1963, an association in the Kirkland Lake area was founded and word spread to families in the Espanola area, encouraging them to begin working together for their own children. These families, with nothing more in common than the love and compassion for their special children, were driven by the possibility that there was more to offer their loved ones.
