About Us

We are a Christian ministry based in Canada with a focus of serving newcomers to our country from a Middle Eastern Muslim background. Many of these beautiful people who have come to our country as refugees have experienced trauma and loss prior to arriving here. We take seriously the Biblical mandate to "love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God" (Leviticus 19:34). We do this practically through helping these newcomers navigate new life in Canada, and through teaching them English, through our "Adopt a Refugee Program." We are also intentional about engaging these newcomer friends in matters of Christian faith, within the context of respectful relationship.

Resources

One aspect of our vision is to train and mobilize the Body of Christ to respectfully serve and engage with the Muslim communities in our Canadian urban centers. One way that we do this is through seminars and training venues.


Our most in depth training venue is the "Understanding Islam" Class, which is a 12 hour interactive learning opportunity, where we explore topics such as:


  • The Origins of Islam
  • What Islam teaches about Jesus
  • What Muslims believe and practice
  • How the Qur'an was compiled/written
  • Do Muslims and Christians worship the same God?
  • Serving your Middle Eastern neighbor
  • Contextual tools to respectfully engage your Muslim friend in matters of faith

Apprenticeship

Another aspect of our vision is to place full-time workers in every urban center of Canada to serve the Middle Eastern and North African Immigrant community.

The Apprenticeship Program is a 9 month program where you will live in a Canadian city where there is an existing ministry to this community. You will be serving at least 20 hours each week on the field, gaining valuable experience and tools in engaging and serving this community, while experiencing valuable mentorship, and some learning.


This is a valuable opportunity to serve the world that has now come to us here in Canada. For more information, or to apply for this opportunity, please contact us.
