GLOBAL MISSIONS TEAMS

Brent & Carina Cantelon are Pastors to Leaders. Thirty years of pastoral ministry has increased their inescapable passion for evangelism and revival in Canada, as well as a desire to minister, strengthen and pour into global missions leaders and work around the world.

Brent and Carina serve as missionaries to Canada.

Kimberley Hodgkiss serves with PAOC as the director at a training centre for teenage girls in Trujillo, Honduras. Kim develops the girls in vocational skills, such as sewing, cooking, computers, business, and English, as well as a deeper understanding of the Bible and Christian values. This enables graduates of the two-year program to succeed and to help provide for their families.

For over twenty years Kim sensed God’s call to “the nations” and after Bible College, seminary, and 14 years of teaching ESL in Vancouver she began her missionary service.

IMAGINE THAILAND

P & C founded Imagine Thailand as a foundation that motivates, trains and sends Thai young people, university students and young professionals to create a new future for communities in need. Their ministry brings assistance to children at risk, victims of terror, survivors of natural disasters and refugees fleeing oppressive governments. In 2012, they relocated to a nearby country experiencing radical and rapid change to continue supporting positive change.

Nelson & Lisa Monteiro work in northeastern Brazil with One27. This local church based ministry works to bring holistic transformation to children and families in needy communities, and equips Christian leaders with the tools they need to impact and transform society.

Nelson was first sent to Canada in 1989 as a missionary / church-planter to the Portuguese-speaking people.

Rod and Elna McDonald work in the Philippines giving university students an opportunity to say yes to Jesus and empower community leaders to find a lifetime of hope and purpose.

They believe that when you reach emerging young leaders with the gospel, it will change nations!

Ari is based in Canada, is trilingual, has lived on three continents and has traveled to over 50 countries.

C & S were married in 2006 and immediately moved to Chennai, India to fulfill their calling to serve the Lord whole-heartedly. From a handful of believers in a tiny living room, the ministry has expanded into a church of nearly 1,000 members.
