Partners with us
YOU MAY BE ASKING, WHAT IS CANADAS HOPE
AND WHY HAVE I RECEIVED IT? GOOD QUESTION!
Canadas Hope, published by One Hope Canada, has replaced our Ontario newsletter,
Footnotes. As a partner with One Hope Canada, either through association with one
of our missionaries or ministries, you will be kept informed through this magazine
about what God is doing here in Ontario and across Canada.
One Hope Canada, formerly known as CSSM Ministries or Canadian Sunday School
Mission, has had ministry to children, youth and families through camps, churches
and other focused ministries across this great country of Canada since 1927. Our
purpose has not changed but, after 86 seasons of ministry, the name of One Hope
Canada was adopted to better reflect our purpose rather than what we do; that of
presenting the Gospel to those with least opportunity to hear of Christ. Along with
the new name, new branding was introduced which presents an up-to-date look
for our logo, signage and publications. Our look is different, but we have kept our
purpose the same.
One Hope Canada provides ministry in Ontario through five camps, Bible Clubs
in schools and a First Nations youth ministry. Our ministries are stretched across
the province from Rainy River in the west over to the Haliburton region in the
east- almost 1700 kilometers. We are blessed to be able to offer a Christian camping
experience and ministry to children and youth of Ontario, many who have little or no
opportunity to hear of Christ.
We hope you will be encouraged as you read this and future issues and learn more of
how God is using One Hope Canada to bring HOPE to Canadas children and youth.
It s exciting to see
how God chooses to
answer prayers and
so we are pleased to
announce and welcome
Stephen and Bev
Johnson to our One
Hope Canada family!

The Taylors
are a

the Christian community, as well
as reaching others with the good
news of Jesus Christ through Gospel
music. The Taylors are currently
performing around 200 dates a year
across the United States, including
several mission-oriented trips
abroad. Since their formation in
2006, God has allowed them to see

collaboration
is required to accomplish anything in
practically all aspects of life. In a marriage,
in a family, in the academic world, in the
workplace and, certainly, in Gods church
we have need of helpmates or associates to
carry out a purpose.
All of our One Hope Canada ministries
depend upon partners in the gospel to help
us present the gospel to those having the
least opportunity to hear of Christ, and to
disciple believers for living and serving
through His Church. Without help in doing
this kingdom work, our ministries would
not have an impact on the lives of children
and youth in our province and country.
Partners in ministry are a sine qua non
(Latin for absolute essential ingredient)
to what we do.
Our partners are sometimes in upfront
roles at our camps and other ministries,
but most often are found serving the Lord
in the background, enabling ministry to
happen. Our interdependent relationships
with churches, individuals, and other
organizations keep us encouraged and able

His people serving
together in order to

Serving
together
Throughout the past 28 years of
serving with One Hope Canada
in the Rainy River District of
Ontario, we have been daily
reminded of how important the
role of partners in the Gospel are!
This is particularly true when it
comes to conducting Bible Camp.
From cooks to camp speakers...
from counsellors to lifeguards...
from nurses to activity group
leaders... from program directors
to junior staff... EVERYONE has a
vital role to play in order to carry
out a successful week of camp. In
addition to these, the role of prayer
