The Harvest Isn't Finished: What God Is Doing From Hamilton to the Nations

Some numbers you count once and forget. Others get counted in heaven, and they never stop mattering. This is a report about the second kind.

“Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.”

John 4:35 (KJV)

Jesus said that to disciples who thought harvest season was still months away. It wasn't then, and it isn't now. Here's what that has looked like for the work Daniel & Katie Ziedins have carried since 2014, and why this is the moment to lean in.

The impact, in one place

• 70+ salvations and 50+ baptisms reported at Jesus Festival 2026 in Gage Park, September 4–5, as of September 6. These are early ministry reports, and follow-up is still going.
• 3,000+ hot dogs and drinks given away free to the city, in what the team called a record weekend.
• A free festival every year since 2024, all three at Gage Park, Hamilton, open to everyone. Plan the next one at JesusFestival.ca.
• 20+ weekly outreach teams, grown from one small outreach in 2014: ordinary believers who now go out every week on their own.
• 12 listed city groups and prayer for 36 nations through Love on The World, all plotted on one live movement map.
• One goal ahead: 100 multiplying outreach groups, anywhere and everywhere, through e3 Canada and I Am Second.

Every one of those numbers is a person. Behind "50+ baptisms" are fifty-some people who walked into water in front of their city and came up declaring that Jesus is Lord. Heaven threw a party for each of them (Luke 15:7). The full story of the weekend is in the 2026 harvest report.

Jesus Festival: the city's front door

Jesus Festival exists for one reason: to make it as easy as possible for a whole city to hear the Gospel. No tickets, no offering plate, no church walls to get past. Worship, testimonies, food trucks, a Kids Zone, and the clear message that Jesus is alive and He loves Hamilton.

That front door matters. Plenty of people will never walk into a sanctuary, but they'll walk into a park on a Saturday. Some of them met Jesus there this year. The 2027 dates haven't been announced yet; you can be first to know at Jesus Festival 2027.

Love on The World: the weekly frontline

A festival is one weekend. The harvest is fifty-two weeks a year. Love on The World is the Great Commission movement that grew out of Love on Hamilton: believers sharing the Gospel, making disciples, serving their communities and multiplying outreach groups in cities and nations.

Sidewalks, bus stops, campuses, hospital hallways. It's not glamorous, and it's the most powerful thing we know: people who are available, everywhere, to everyone. If you've ever wanted to share your faith but didn't know where to start, this is where you start. Join a group, or start one in your city.

“And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire.”

Jude 1:23 (KJV)

SIX33: carrying the Kingdom into culture

The Gospel was never meant to stay inside Christian spaces. Jesus called His people the light of the world and a city that is set on an hill (Matthew 5:14). Light goes where the dark is: into gyms, garages, studios, feeds and streets.

That's the heart of SIX33, coming really soon. It's a Christian lifestyle and culture brand built on one verse:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

Matthew 6:33 (KJV)

SIX33 began in 2014 as Seek First Brand and is being rebuilt as a whole world: limited drops, athletes and creators, Field Notes and events, all with the same order of life: seek Jesus first, live with purpose, pursue excellence, impact culture for His Kingdom, give God the glory. A big part of its heart is raising funds for Love on The World, so as SIX33 grows, the giving grows with it. It's pre-launch right now; the Inner Circle list at SIX33.World is the way in.

The next season: enlarge the tent

Daniel & Katie now serve with e3 Canada, in collaboration with I Am Second, equipping believers to share their faith and to establish multiplying, life-changing churches. The assignment is bigger than anything so far: 100 multiplying outreach groups, anywhere and everywhere.

“Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.”

Isaiah 54:2 (KJV)

Lengthen the cords, so the work goes further. Strengthen the stakes, so it holds. Multiplication needs both: reach and roots. It means training people who train people, and it means faithful partners who keep the stakes in the ground while the cords stretch to new cities.

This is what plundering hell looks like

It doesn't look like a slogan on a stage. It looks like a man at a bus stop hearing for the first time that God isn't finished with him. It looks like a teenager baptised in a park while her friends cheer. It looks like a team in a city you've never visited, trained by a team trained by a team that started over coffee in Hamilton.

“And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.”

Daniel 12:3 (KJV)

Plunder hell. Populate heaven. In Jesus' name. If you want the full biblical case for why the people who send share the reward, read Plunder Hell, Populate Heaven.

Your part in the next number

• Pray. Ask the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers (Matthew 9:38), and to keep Daniel, Katie and every team strong.
• Go. Join or start an outreach through LoveonTheWorld.com, and invite someone to the next Jesus Festival.
• Carry it into culture. Join the SIX33 Inner Circle at SIX33.World before launch and help turn a brand into fuel for the Gospel.
• Partner. If the Lord leads, become a monthly or one-time partner through Daniel & Katie's official e3 Canada page, linked from KD-Ziedins.com. It's the backbone that turns a calling into a sustainable sending.

The fields are still white. The gates are still not holding. And somewhere out there is someone whose name is about to be written in heaven because somebody said yes. Let's go together.
