THE POWER OF A FATHER’S WORDS

by Pastor Frank Seixas | Jun 21, 2026 | Father's Day, Wisdom in the Noise

We’re excited to welcome you to VIVA SUNDAY as we gather across all three services for a special Father’s Day celebration. We’re grateful for every father, grandfather, spiritual father, and father figure who has made a lasting impact through their faith, love, and leadership. Whether you’re joining us in person or online, we believe this will be a meaningful day in God’s presence.

This week, Lead Pastor Frank Seixas will be sharing a message titled “THE POWER OF A FATHER’S WORDS.” Based on Proverbs 18:21, this message explores the incredible influence our words carry. Scripture teaches that words can wound or heal, tear down or build up, and even shape identity and destiny. God has entrusted fathers with a powerful opportunity to speak life, encouragement, wisdom, and blessing into the lives of those they lead and love.

Join us this Sunday across three services (9:00 am, 10:45 am, & 12:30 pm) at VIVA CHURCH as we worship, learn, and align our hearts with God’s mission. Come expecting a fresh word and a renewed passion to live out your faith in these times. Let’s lift high the name of Jesus together! Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to stay connected with all that God is doing at VIVA CHURCH! 🙌🔥✝️

Pastor Frank Seixas

I am Frank the co-lead Pastor and with my wife Chris are the founders of VIVA Church in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. I first came to Canada in 1987, following God’s call to permanently move from Brazil to Canada. In August 1992, I started VIVA Church. In January 1994, I married Chris, and in 1996, I attended the Nazarene Bible College of Canada. Later I was awarded Doctor of Divinity (DDiv) from Canada Christian College in 2022.

With a vision to reach people for Jesus, VIVA Church has grown to become a positive influence for the Kingdom, not only in Oshawa but also by planting churches internationally in countries like Cambodia and Uganda. Beyond our work at the local church, I (Frank) serve the body of Christ on the boards of other ministries and churches, and I am part of the Apostolic Ministry of MFI-Canada. I also travel to speak at conferences and many churches around the world.

Chris and I have dedicated more than 30 years to serving at VIVA Church, witnessing the salvation and growth of many. We have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Leticia, our youngest, and Gabriella, our oldest, who is married to Matheus.
