Canada is a mosaic of indigenous and immigrant nations and peoples, many of whom have retained their original culture.

Pray for a much-needed revival, starting in the church and radiating outward.

Gospel Breakthrough: Druze of Syria
Muslims have a deep-rooted conviction that the Qur’an is the sent-down, completely non-human, perfect word of God. This unquestioned teaching creates a significant barrier to how the Druze seekers (and believers) think about and read God’s revelation in the Bible.
