Landlords and property managers can long on and self-manage rental listings. The WRN administrator can also create listings for landlords (see contact info below).Individual renters seeking accommodations can search geographic areas to find vacancy and contact information.

Living Bible Explorers began in the spring of 1969 as the Simcoe Boys Club. It met in the West End home of 23 year-old George Bock. Four boys attended. George asked God to send someone to share the love of Jesus with kids on his street. The 'someone' prayed for turned out to be George himself.By the fall of that first year, so many boys were coming to the club additional help was needed. Along came George Walker to fill the gap. That same fall, the first girls club was started in an old Safeway building, and the ministry changed its name to Living Bible Explorers.Today, with ten full-time staff, a number of summer workers, and 50 to 100 volunteers, LBE continues to reach children, youth, and families in Winnipeg's inner city with the Good News of Jesus.
it is always wonderful being here and I have learned a lot and God has also moved mightily in the ministry. Keep up the great work and God would keep on rewarding you for doing his works and winning souls for him: as in the scriptures in Math. 28 vs 19-20 & 2Cor. 5 vs 20 Read more
