Go therefore and make disciples of all nations

We have the privilege and responsibility to take the love and message of Christ into our world
with the ultimate goal of making disciples. This is something we do here in Canada and together with partners in
Rwanda, Turkey, Dominican Republic, and Japan.

Meet our Global Mission Partners
Rwanda
Jean and Zawadi Samvura
In November 2021, three elders from Living Hope visited Rwanda and met Jean Samvura, lead pastor of Harvest Bible Fellowship, Gisenyi. Living Hope is now beginning a partnership with Jean and Harvest Bible Fellowship Rwanda to support the work of church planting and pastor training in Africa.
Turkey
Living Hope Church has been supporting international workers in Turkey for more than 20 years. Over the years we have sent a number of short-term teams and built a strong relationship with our missionaries who minister through personal relationships in their company and neighbourhood. With the current economic and political climate, prayer support is a critical and strategic way for Living Hope to be involved with this mission field.
