“…and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” ~ Jesus (Acts 1:8, ESV)

I said it before and I’ll say it again…while we praise God for missionaries who are taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth, what about Jerusalem – er, I mean – Canada, eh?

I used to be shocked when I’d meet young adults like Brandon and John…used to be. Born, raised, and breathing day-to-day in a “Christian” country called Canada without ever having set foot in a church and never having heard the Gospel. Yet, almost every Saturday of soul-winning the Lord graciously confirms His call for our ministry by showing us again and again that there is also much local missions work to be done for the Him right here at home.
