Connecting Faith and Life
Partnering together in Mission
This Sunday, we are excited to welcome Rev. Dr. Jeff Carter and members of the international Horizons team, who will be joining us in worship to share an update.Many in our congregation will know that we have supported Jeff and Deann Carter who had served with CBM since 2002, in the area of ministry training with the European Baptist Federation. In 2005, Jeff launched the Horizons program training youth and children’s ministry leaders in Europe and the Middle East. In transitioning to the Baptist World Alliance (BWA), the Horizons global
training program expanded beyond 50 different countries and into 14 different languages. This ministry continues to grow providing free training and support to the global church in reaching young people for Christ. Currently, our congregation supports Jeff’s ministry with the BWA Horizons program through Crandall University, where he also serves as the director of the William Carey Initiative - another important ministry of our Canadian Baptist network.Jeff is a graduate of the Nova Scotia Agricultural College, Acadia Divinity College (Masters of Divinity), McMaster Divinity College (Doctor of Ministry), and the University of Wales where he completed his Phd examining the Internet and its effect on the spiritual health of young people.In 1992, Jeff was ordained as a Canadian Baptist minister by First Moncton Baptist Church. He has served both locally and globally equipping the church for God’s mission in the world.
Ukraine Emergency Relief Please pray for Ukraine and for the work of peace, aid, relief, and refuge being carried out by Baptists across this region. We are receiving your financial support to directly support the work of CBM through local partnerships responding to the humanitarian crisis.
