Culture

“O God, with all our hearts, we long for You. Come, transform us to be Christ-centred, Spirit-empowered, Mission-focused people, multiplying disciples everywhere.” God is answering our Vision Prayer. We are tasting the firstfruits of His blessing, the momentum is building, and hunger is rising!

Nurture

Nurture is focused on creating culture and movement with The Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) by developing a generation of new leaders that are focused on the deeper life and missions. We work with Districts and churches to identify and prepare leaders, valuing their gifts and calling, and guiding them into the transforming work of God. We long to unleash a new level of leadership. We recognize the need to stimulate fresh and innovative ideas to move us forward. Through Envision Canada, New Ventures Canada, Candidate Development, new strategic sending partnerships, new funding and strategies, working with our schools, and national networks, Nurture is a main driver of the C&MA.

New Ventures

New Ventures is a resource within the C&MA that supports the development of leaders and new expressions of the church in Canada. We create pathways and an environment in which these new leaders and churches can develop. Our desire is to see new leaders in new places, leading new churches across Canada to reach new people with the Gospel.

Candidate Development Office

God still sends people all over the world to reach people who haven’t heard about the way, truth, and life of Jesus. We still respond by helping those called from our churches to be involved in international mission work. Over the last two years we sent 38 new international workers and we are going to keep sending people like this, supported by the Global Advance Fund, to be part of our disciple-making efforts around the world.

Envision Canada

Envision Canada is a catalyst for the next generation of emerging Christ-centred, Spirit-empowered, Mission-focused leaders. As a resource of the C&MA, Envision helps identify, equip, and launch future missional leaders who will innovate, establish, and strengthen communities of faith in Canada and around the world

Venture

Over 40% of the people in the world are living without the hope of Jesus; they have not been given the opportunity to hear about Him. We identify and equip leaders to go near and far to multiply disciples and churches in rural communities and urban centres. As Spirit-filled people, we are all empowered to take the mission to go and bless. In line with Christ’s mandate of Acts 1:8, we believe that we are called to always be on mission, starting right where God has placed us.

Caribbean Sun

Our major strategy in the Sun region is to develop relationships, dynamic partnerships, and train nationals to go abroad. Ministry initiatives in Mexico, the Caribbean Islands, and Central and South America endeavour to raise up the Church to be able to cross the barriers of religion, economic disparity, and political unrest with the power and love of the Gospel.

Desert Sand

Many people of this region are followers of Islam. The nomadic Fulani people brought Islam across the Sahara to the West and North African nations. We work to bring access to Jesus in the face of religious strongholds, devastating droughts, famine, and the ever-increasing influence of extremists.

Asian Spice

East and Southeast Asia has immense diversity. Here you can find all major religions, thousands of languages and cultures, and a wide range of political expressions. More people live in this part of the world than anywhere else, and many have never encountered Jesus. Our international workers live and serve here and bring access to Jesus in equally diverse ways.
