Beyond SJR

Jesus teaches the church that we are to pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest. St. John's Richmond is helping do this by serving and supporting local and overseas mission partners. We give donations of time and money, and commit to regular prayer for each of them. These mission partners are skillfully serving in gospel ministry in their settings. We are excited to see the harvest increase through their faithful work.

Bible-in-a-Day

The Bible is the most published book in human history, a foundational document of western civilization, and the basis of Christianity, but it remains widely under-read and misunderstood. This one-day workshop is a brilliant way to understand how the whole Bible fits together as one coherent story. Developed at St. John’s Richmond beginning in 2009, the Bible-in-a-day (BIAD) Seminar has travelled to over 40 churches.

See the BIAD Website for more information.

Diocese of Mahajanga

Bishop Darrell Critch, based in St. John’s NL, is now the Bishop of Mahajanga Diocese in northern Madagascar. This is the poorest of the Dioceses in this island nation in the Indian Ocean. We support Bishop Darrell as he serves the parishes and clergy in this remote area of the world. Find out more here.

Artizo Ministry Training

For nearly 20 years, St. John’s Richmond has been a training base for over a dozen young leaders who now serve all over Canada and the US. We partner with the Artizo Institute to help train able, faithful, innovative and confident men and women to know and understand the Bible, lead effectively, proclaim the gospel, and be able to train others to do the same.

Part of our mission is to send out most of those we train to other churches. For example, Allan Tan is now a minister at Good Shepherd Vancouver; Jeremy Graham (and team) has planted a new church in Vancouver, King’s Cross; David McElrea is Rector of St. Matthew’s Abbotsford; and Ben Roberts is now Executive Director of Artizo.

Ratanak International

Ratanak International was founded by St. John’s Richmond member Brian McConaghy. We support this mission financially, with prayer, and by people from our church helping locally or in Cambodia. This international organization is dedicated to working with the Khmer people of Cambodia, empowering them to rebuild their country.
