Recognizing Canada’s Times (Newcomers & the Church)
1.7 million. In these four years from 2021 until 2024, the newly increased goal by Immigration Canada will be the equivalent of Canada’s fourth largest city, after Vancouver and before Calgary. We’re in an unprecedented period of time for our nation. Yes, unprecedented. In 2021 we passed all historic records for immigration, even beating out the highest number during the Great Migration of 1815-1850.
This 26 minute video is both informational and devotional, grounding what’s happening in Canada in the Word of God. This was originally presented by Charles Hermelink of the PAOC’s Mission Canada in the International Office’s weekly staff devotional on Feb. 22, 2022. (Please excuse a bit of audio glitches in the second half where someone accidentally unmuted their mic.) The PAOC’s Mission Canada is our home mission agency for mobilizing workers aimed into five missional gaps of Canada: Urban, Francophone, Next Gen, Aboriginal & Immigrants. Charles serves as the National Coordinator for the Cultural Language Groups Priority which is focused on Immigrants. You’ll find Charles’ contact info at the end of the video.
