About the conference:

Over the past years, we have seen and heard significant concerns from employees, students, women and children in our communities, schools and churches, the issues of immigration, race, forced marriage at an early age in Africa, poor health care/poor educational facilities in Africa, peace building and reconciliation and the role of the church in the development of a nation. If we do not address these issues, we are at risk of loosing great values, opportunities and talents in our communities. As a church based nonprofit organization in Canada, USA and Africa, we are charged with the responsibilities to foster peace and sharpen the destiny of our world.

Participants at the Global initiative conference for International Development Ontario Canada GICFID2024, June 27-29, 2024.

This is a solid pathway to improved livelihood attainment, spiritual growth and development. This will enhance our work to ensure that the lost sheep is found. Church-based education is essential for combating ignorance, misunderstanding of Christianity and Christ being the savior of mankind. More needs to be done to guarantee freedom of conscience and Christian expression to foster education on Christianity. This will also promote the culture and social expression of Christianity in our society.
