Events
Jaffray Offering // October 16
Over a billion people living in over 500,000 villages in South Asia have never encountered the Gospel. South Asia is a mission field the size of which this generation has never seen and it’s still growing by nearly the population of Canada every single year. The Jaffray Project, our annual missions focus, is raising funds to be used in places in South Asia where few or none have heard of Jesus. On Sunday, Oct 16, we will collect the Jaffray Offering and we ask that you prayerfully consider what you might contribute so others can hear the life-changing gospel of Jesus.
