Our History

.

Our history is in Christ. We praise God for overseas missionaries who are taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth. However, as you look across the landscape of your own community and country, there is also much missions work to be done locally for the Lord right here at home.

.

This website is being developed to give you the opportunity to support local missionaries in Canada with The Cross Current.

“May he have dominion from sea to sea…” (Psalm 72:8)

.

Our country was built on a foundation of Christianity and reverence for our sovereign God. In fact, Canada’s national motto (”a mari usque ad mare” or “from sea to sea”) is even a reference to Psalm 72:8.

.

But that was then, this is now:

.

Only 21% of Canadians attended church in a weekly basis in the year 2000, down from 31% in 1975 and from 60% in 1045. - Reginald Bibby, MacLean’s Magazine

.

We have kids who have an interest in spirituality, but it’s not the Bible they’re going to for guidance. - Paul Robertson, Professor of Youth Culture, Tyndale College and Seminary

.

Of people under 29 years of age in Canada, only 12% have ever attended church. Of those who have, only 12% are attending now. - Campus Crusades for Christ
