God has blessed CEF Ontario with a committed group of people who function as a team, helping and supporting one another in ministry and working with a common goal and vision. Please pray for them and for their ministries. Our staff who work in field ministry are all required to raise their own financial support, and several are still working to achieve a level of full support. If you wish to provide financial assistance to one of these workers please contact our office.
