CFI – Christian Friends of Israel
As we celebrate the return of some of the hostages held in captivity for 470 days, we can feel the apprehension of those families whose loved ones have gone on to glory giving their lives as a sacrifice in the hands of evil oppressors. We can only hope and pray that the remainder of the hostages are returned safely to the land of Israel. “Behold on the mountains the feet of him who brings good tidings, who proclaims peace!” Nahum 1:15 Peace in the world is an elusive thought, with the forces of good and evil still at work. 2025 is a time of new leaders with new President Donald Trump in USA, and a looming election on the horizon in Canada. Yet we can lean on the everlasting arms of God the Father knowing that He sent His Son to be Saviour of the world. “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.”
Christian Service Brigade
Your Boys – Your Men – Your Church. Christian Service Brigade makes this our priority. CSB comes alongside the men of your church to build the boys of your community for Christ. It isn’t so much what CSB is doing through the Tree Climber, Stockade and Battalion programs, it’s how men in your church are inspired by God to reach the boys in your greater community. Your Church – Your Men – Your Boys. The local church is the starting point for reaching the community with the Good News. CSB provides proven programs that build upon “Godly Action Wrapped in Biblical Truth”. Men are trained to build wholesome relationships with their sons, church family, and friends in the neighbourhood. Families in Your Community are looking for Christ-centred fellowship that builds their children mentally, physically, spiritually and socially – Luke 2:52. Christians want to fulfil Christ’s Great Commission. CSB can help: www.csbcan.ca.

Where “Uncleanness” Comes From: Samar is a dedicated Hindu and seafarer from Northern India. Although his home is far away from any ocean, he was influenced to go to sea by some friends. Samar told a Lighthouse chaplain he met in Vancouver that, in accordance with his beliefs, he is a strict vegetarian. In response, the chaplain respectfully referred to Jesus’ words in Mark 7:18-23 where the Lord told His disciples that it is not what enters a man from outside that makes him unclean, but what comes out of a man’s heart (e.g. evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft murder, adultery, greed…) that makes him unclean. Our uncleanness, therefore, is the result of sin, not diet. Samar seemed to listen and was willing to accept some Gospel materials from the chaplain who hopes and prays that this mariner will come to know Jesus.
