Missionary Updates

Terry and Joanie Wiley

Terry and Joanie have seen many changes in their ministry, and a new one is around the corner. They are now part of Africa Inland Mission (AIM), and will be strategically based in Germany. The AIM main office is in Italy, but they will be living near family in Germany. Terry will travel back-and-forth to Ethiopia from there, rather than Canada. Setting up an apartment in Germany means, as a renter, you just "rent the box" and supply everything from cupboards to sinks. We would love to help with some of those costs. They are still in need of about 2/3 of those funds.

Can you help? Just mark "Wiley's" on your envelope or E transfer note to designate to this cost.

We will wrap up by August 31, 2024.

Arrowhead Native Bible Center

In September 2023, we had a short term missions team help out one of our missionary partners at Arrowhead Native Bible Center. Check out the video recap from their trip!

Our Missionary Family

In Canada

From its very beginnings in 1988, the vision for Arrowhead has been that it serve as a resource for the service of the Gospel. The missionaries, at that time, met on the new property and prayed together that it would always be used for the ultimate purpose of communicating the gospel inter culturally. Although we are often referred to as a Bible Camp, the intention has always been that it serve as a ministry centre, serving in a variety of capacities. In addition to our first love, our summer camps, many of our new ministries reflect a desire to see the Gospel proclaimed. Grant & Elizabeth Fawcett lead at Arrowhead. It is the Fawcett’s desire to see the Gospel communicated well, Scripture to be held high and Christ to be central to everything.

Tim is changing the future of theological education. Tim serves with Horizon Education Network as the Director of Educational Technology and with the International Council for Evangelical Theological Education as the Director of Digital Ecology. From his home base in Canada, Tim supports and consults with seminaries and training organizations worldwide.

Bill and Judy serve the Lord here in Canada, while supporting the Slavic countries and the Pastors  there. The focus is to sponsor national evangelical church planters who are sent by their own churches to unreached communities in the CIS. These church planters know the language, history, culture and other important dynamics of ministry to their people. The sponsoring of national evangelist-church planters is also the most cost-effective way to bring the Gospel into areas where no organized evangelical witness exists. Bill has made many trips to Ukraine and surrounding countries, to facilitate the support of church planters and Pastors.  

Child Evangelism Fellowship and Heritage Bible College both work with our "youth" in SW Ontario. CEF: Ivhan Rusli serves as the Provincial Director. The CEF Ontario camp is located near Paris, ONT. They host camps year round, for children from the inner city. Their mission is to evangelize boys and girls with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, disciple them in the Word of God, and establish them in the local church.

Our purpose is to present the Word of God, to the boys & girls in Elgin County, in such a way as they might understand how much God loves them. That they would also know that God sent His only Son to pay for their sins that we might ask for forgiveness and have eternal life with Him! In cooperation with parents, We strive to :

  • provide education and assistance to children in area of moral and spiritual guidance in a manner which is beneficial to the child and to the community.

  • Help children become better citizens through a knowledge of the Bible and its principles.

  • Organize banquets, rallies and seminars for religious and educational purposes. * assist churches by providing teachers and other aids for their Christian Education programs.

  • Conduct Bible clubs whenever and wherever possible to achieve these aims.

National churches worldwide require a church-based solution for leadership development. 95% of pastors have no formal training (Joshua Project), LeadersFormation is one way this is being done. Through LeadersFormation, our church partners together with other Fellowship churches in Ontario to train pastors and missionaries in areas of the world where there are no seminaries or Bible colleges. Once a year, a pastor or leader travels for week-long cohorts of discipleship training with the goal of equipping local, indigenous pastors and missionaries to disciple others. A LeadersFormation cohort typically lasts for 5 years. Before the end of the 5 years, the national pastors have already started their own cohorts discipling other pastors and Christian workers themselves. It's a beautiful picture of the Great Commission in action: Disciples who make disciples who make disciples of all nations.

Len is a chaplain who serves the Lord at the Drumbo Truck Stop, talking with drivers, praying with them and meeting them "where they are." The mission of Transport for Chris is to lead Commercial Drivers to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith.

Jocelyn is passionate about global missions and is carrying out the call to "make disciples of all nations" right here on Canadian campuses, partnering with Power to Change. She has been reaching out to "the foreigner" and international people in her community since middle school which makes engaging in International Student ministry a natural step. The heart behind her outreach is that of 1 Thessalonians 2:8: "Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well." Thank you for partnering with her though financial support! You make it possible for Jocelyn to serve on campus.

SEMBEQ exists to assist in raising up the next generation of Christians in Quebec. Specifically, SEMBEQ acts as a tool of the local churches in the training of their members and leaders. As a context-based and church-based seminary, most of SEMBEQ’s courses are taught within local churches. In some cases, a regional center will host courses that bring several churches together for the training. It is a way for a Pastor to be trained in segments, allowing him to continue serving in his local church.

John has served as ABWE President since December 2021. Originally from southern Ontario, John and his wife Jacky served as ABWE Canada missionaries in Ukraine for over 22 years.

In September 2015, God, in his grace, led Stephan and Nancy, to the Church in Saint-Hyacinthe to be trained as a church planting couple. They could then be part of the church planting team in Beloeil. By devoting two days a week for five years to his studies, Stephan completed his baccalaureate in theology from SEMBEQ, specializing in church planting. Beloeil is a picturesque town located in the heart of the Richelieu Valley, between Saint-Hyacinthe and Montreal. This region’s population of approximately 120,000 has a rather negative perception of the Church and is in great need of the Gospel. People need to see Jesus displayed in the lives of his disciples to be drawn to Christ. The missionary project in Beloeil started in 2016 with small communities of believers on mission in the city. These missional groups began to bless and love people, offering their time, money, and talents. God has blessed us! Since October 2019, the missionary project has become a growing church planting project. Stephan and Nancy are parents of 3 young children.

Steve Twinem is presently the church relations director for Pioneers Canada a mission agency whose goal is “mobilizing teams to initiate church planting movements among the unreached.” Steve and Lisa have been married and in ministry together for 27 years.

Their youngest, Nate lives at home as their three daughters are married, working and studying (in that order) and their oldest has two children of her own moving them into the grand parent category. Steve enjoys studying and preaching God’s word with the knowledge that the Christ through His gospel transforms our lives and will continue to until He comes again.

Scott and Andrea serve the Lord in Ireland. Their goal is to see Irish discipling Irish, building up the body of Christ across the island. They work to establish relationships either one on one, in group settings, in the church, at the Limerick Christian Centre, their home, wherever a door is open to share God’s word and help them understand what they believe & building solid biblical foundations. Once discipled, they will then equip them begin to disciple others, becoming their mentors and guiding them in the process. Their goal is never to replace Irish leadership but rather to support the current leaders, to start a movement of disciplers that will exist in Ireland regardless if we are present or not.
