Brayden and Tracy Sloan are the founders and teach the Introduction to Intercession and Certificate courses for SHIFT College of Intercession.
Brayden graduated with a Bachelor of Theology from Horizon Seminary in 2000. He went to Japan and taught English and Music for 7 years to every type of educational institution for the sole purpose of gaining insight and experience in all areas of education. One of his favourite institutions to teach at was the Japanese University, where he taught English courses with a specific focus (nursing, social science, music). There he learned how to form more specific lesson plans in a professional atmosphere. After his first year of innovative teaching in the University the head of the English program said, “Brayden’s students had the greatest results in improvement in the language”. Brayden’s greatest pet peeve is the educational institution that imparts knowledge but does not educate. Brayden’s educational philosophy is to integrate, experience and replicate all that is learned to impact whatever sphere the student enters. As president and instructor at SCI, he is committed to providing education that meets those categories – integration, experience and replication.
Tracy Sloan has an entrepreneurial bent that goes back to her teens. She also taught 4 years in Japan to many different age groups. She even started her own school from scratch, which became very successful. From 2007-2010, Tracy endured the strict program of dental hygiene and graduated with her diploma to be certified to work on and educate people regarding their oral health. Tracy gained a PhD in intercession when their marriage exploded in 2005 and entered the school of prayer, praying up to 8hours a day for their marriage destiny. God heard her prayers and restored their marriage after 3.5 years of praying in May of 2009. Now with this full acclamation she encourages others that prayer is powerful and that it is indeed a learned skillset.
Rob Parker teaches in the Diploma and Mastery Diploma courses for SHIFT College of Intercession.
Rob Parker and Fran Parker are directors of the National House of Prayer in Ottawa.
They heard the call to create an “Embassy of Prayer” in the nation’s capital on Canada Day – July 1st, 2000 after Rob had made a 73 day Prayer Walk from Calgary to Ottawa. After several years of sharing the vision with other leaders across the nation they moved to the capital in 2004 to begin establishing a ministry that would mobilize prayer for government.
Rob is originally from Victoria, B.C. and had a career as a paramedic working both in the Canadian Arctic and the Saharan desert before studying at Queen’s University in Belfast, Northern Ireland and returning to pastor a church in his home city.
Fran was born in Calgary but raised in Cape Breton and served in the health care field, while working alongside her husband with the Baptist congregation in Vernon, B.C.
God clearly led Rob and Fran in establishing a strategic and prayerful presence for the government of Canada. Over the past twelve years, thousands of Christian believers have come to pray in the halls of government through the ministry of the National House of Prayer. Rob has recently written a book called “We Have a Voice”, with over 17,000 copies distributed, which offers practical insight and important information to equip and encourage Christians to pray for their nation, vote responsibly, and be involved in the public square.

Pastor Craig and Anne have pastored Southside for over 20 years. With a heart for true open worship and a relevant prophetic spirit in the church, their desire is for every person to come into all that God has for them. They also travel extensively and have their own Web TV ministry. Craig and Anne live in Calgary and enjoy their 3 children, Ben, Ian and Jennifer and their grandsons Lex and Asher.
Dennis and Katie Wiedrick both teach in the Diploma and Mastery Diploma programs of SHIFT college of Intercession.
Two rather ordinary people from Southern Ontario now thrust into an international ministry that spans over 40 nations. This includes pastoring, teaching, writing, television, missions, intercession, business coaching, spiritual parenting, etc.
Dennis and Katie Wiedrick love to teach on The Fatherheart of God, Prayer and Intercession, Five-fold Ministry, and the 7 Mountain Principle. But highest on their list of priorities next to loving God, is the apostolic family of spiritual sons and daughters they parent — part of a generation of young leaders who will change the world!
