“The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble, and he knoweth them that trust in him.” Nahum 1:7

The Fellowship of Christian Farmers – Canada has just experienced another year of growth. Some of us are impatient at times and wonder why this growth cannot happen at a faster pace! But God is in charge and He has ordered everything in His time. In spite of the troublesome economic times we have been able to grow, pay our bills, and have increased our inventory of show supplies.
2010 took us across the Rockies for the first time, gave birth to new chapters, increased our outreach by sixteen events, and saw the number of people who heard the gospel in Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia double or triple. The hand of God was clearly visible as good relationships were developed with event organizers and neighbouring exhibitors.
There were sad times too in 2010. Our prayer coordinator, Elaine Blatz, left us to be with the Lord, and members of the leadership lost parents or close relatives.
New members were added to the board as we welcomed Laird Murray, Colleen Grant, and Roy Neilsen. Gladdie-May Dueck of Edmonton has joined the team as prayer coordinator. Their love of the Lord and concern for the lost is an encouragement to us all. They bring with them a wealth of experience.
After two years of examining our records and bylaws, the Canadian Council of Christian Charities has recognized us as a certified member. This means that the Fellowship of Christian Farmers – Canada meets their high standards of integrity and accountability in organizational structure and financial management.
We are truly thankful for all the people who give of their time, talents, and money to make this organization work. Together we can meet the greatest need of mankind – the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
There are more than 7,000 kilometres on that Trans-Canada Highway; there are a couple of thousand events out there which would have a place for an FCF booth. Pray the Lord of the harvest that he would send workers!
 

President’s Pen
   Welcome to the webpage for Fellowship of Christian Farmers Canada (FCFC).  2010 was a milestone year for us, representing 10 years of ministry in Canada.  From one show in 2000 at the “International Plowing Match” to over 69 shows all across Canada this past year FCF is growing by leaps and bounds.  God has shown this ministry favour! 

 We consider ourselves primarily a market place ministry, going to fairs and trade shows all across Canada with the 5 colored beads on most of the items we give away.  All we ask is for a few minutes to share the gospel story of salvation. 
   Another aspect to our ministry here at FCFC is our “Prayer Ministry”.  Gladdie-Mae Dueck from Edmonton AB has recently accepted the roll of FCFC Prayer Co-Ordinator.  Big thanks to those who pray faithfully for this ministry!
   Another area we love to be involved with is FCFC Missions projects.  This is relatively new for us and we have partnered with Christian Camp International (CCI).  Our first official project was to send almost 5000 beads and leathers to the Fiji Camp program.  We are looking forward to bigger projects and to more countries as they share the gospel with the 5 colored bead method. 
   Finally our fourth area of ministry is “Rapid Action”.  This is our newly developed Disaster Relief program.  We had the opportunity to help a family in Maple Creek, SK last summer.  Their farm site had severe flooding damage and our team was able to reconstruct it. 
   As you are well aware we are a faith based ministry.  All projects FCFC are involved with require finances.  In regards to some of our new projects, we cannot start until finances are in.  For more information in this regard, please contact myself or head office.
    God is continually opening doors for FCFC.  We are preparing for our biggest year ever!  I hope and pray that YOU will join our team so that we can take the saving gospel message to thousands of people this next year!
