What these sessions are about
Simply put, it’s people getting together to hear good news – wonderful news – about God’s way of saving people. Saved from what? Who needs saving? When, where, and how? These sessions provide you with straightforward answers based on the central theme of the sacred writings—the Bible.
Lasting one hour, an evening session will typically include messages from two speakers in a lecture format. Several songs may be sung as they relate to these messages. There are no requests for money and no requests for public interaction as this is not a fund raiser or a membership drive.
The people who convene these meetings – and who may have passed along an invitation to you – are deeply committed to sharing the Bible message with others. They themselves have found the message to be life changing. So if you’ve received an invitation to attend, it’s because they care. And more importantly, God cares. Invest an hour of your time with an open mind and we’re confident that it will be time well spent.
Jesus said: “I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”
John 8:12
The speakers at these sessions
David Booth
David was saved as a boy of eight. After high school, he went to the Ontario forestry college and became a conservation officer. He was posted to the Loring, Ontario area, where he met his wife-to-be, Nancy. A few years after their marriage in 1971, David and Nancy felt the Lord was calling them to the mission field, and so they left for Costa Rica in 1978, where spent 16 years preaching the gospel. In 1994, the iron curtain was lifted in Russia, and David and Nancy moved there to spread the gospel. They lived there for six years. David has had the privilege of preaching the gospel in 12 different countries. Their daughter Sabrina is currently serving the Lord in Russia. David's current ministry is preaching the gospel in Canada, the United States, Latin America, and Russia.
Murry Pratt
I was born in the gold mining town of Kirkland Lake in northeastern Ontario. My parents purchased a farm south of the town where I was raised with five siblings. We were taught from childhood that the Bible is God's unerring word. We learned that we needed to be saved from our sins in order to be in Heaven for eternity. Thankfully, as a young boy, the Lord Jesus saved me by His grace.
After teaching elementary school for six years in Kirkland Lake, I was called by the Lord to preach the gospel on a full-time basis. I have spent most of the past 35 years preaching in Ontario, although I have on occasion preached in some of the other provinces of this fair land. Five years ago, I had the privilege of spending 7 weeks in the U.K. preaching the way of salvation there. I am looking forward to preaching the gospel in Ottawa this coming Fall season.
