The Tribe of Gad

The Tribe of Gad

“Gad will be attacked by a band of raiders,
    but he will attack them at their heels.

~ Genesis 49:19 NIV

“Blessed is he who enlarges Gad’s domain!
    Gad lives there like a lion,
    tearing at arm or head.
 He chose the best land for himself;
    the leader’s portion was kept for him.
When the heads of the people assembled,
    he carried out the Lord’s righteous will,
    and his judgments concerning Israel.”

~ Deuteronomy 33:20-21 NIV


The Tribe of Gad is in Canada. Our beginnings were in Nova Scotia, and later we spread out west to the enlarged domain. Many of us speak French.

Plan a visit

We have had many visitors drop in for a few hours or arrange for extended visits. More than just simply looking for helpers in exchange for accommodations, our guests are alongside us and learning with us the deeper things of life. Usually, we arrange visits of 1 or 2 days, but, if you are really enjoying the rhythm of our life, an extended stay can be discussed. Contact the community directly you'd like to visit.  We hope you will come spend some time with us!
