ICM's Vision is to nurture seekers into confident disciplers who live as everyday witnesses of Jesus Christ.
Our Ministry
Impact Canada Ministries exists to reach Canadians with the Gospel and mobilize confident witnesses of Jesus Christ.

Local Missions: We serve as missionaries to local communities in Canada, reaching out to all ages and ethnicities.
Bible Camps and VBS: ICM helps develop camp speakers while creating camp curriculum and counsellor training programs.
Witness Mobilization: ICM partners with churches, Christian schools, colleges, and outreach ministries, offering workshops and classes for family discipleship, camp counselling, chronological Bible teaching, and evangelism.
Internships: Opportunities in local missions and outreach, teaching and training, speaking at retreats and events, curriculum development, and desktop publishing.
Reaching Canadians with the Gospel
Some are called to take the Gospel across the ocean.
You can reach Canadians with the Gospel right across the street.
Why Canada?
Many Canadians, whether they have lived here for generations or recently arrived, have little understanding of the Bible or the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our communities include people from many nations, cultures and religious backgrounds. We do not need to cross an ocean to meet people who need the hope of the Gospel. The mission field is coming to us.
How Do We Reach Canadians?
We meet people where they are through local missions, Bible camps and VBS, Come & See weekends and classes, campus and ethnic outreach, and life-on-life evangelism.
Through life-on-life ministry, we nurture Gospel-centred relationships in homes and communities. We remain present through hardships, crises and everyday life, reflecting Christ and helping people understand what it means to trust and follow Him.
ICM reaches Canadians by nurturing seekers toward faith in Jesus Christ through clear Gospel teaching, meaningful relationships,
and practical outreach.
Mobilizing Confident Witnesses
“Witnesses” are believers in Christ who testify to others about Jesus Christ concerning what they have seen, heard, understood and experienced.
What Does Mobilizing Mean?
To prepare people and resources for active service toward a specific goal.
Just as people are prepared before active service, believers are more effective in evangelism and discipleship when they receive biblical teaching, practical tools and hands-on training.
What is a Confident Witness?
Confidence comes through finding your adequacy in Christ alone.
“Such is the confidence we have through Christ before God. It is not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God. He has made us competent to be ministers of a new covenant…” 2 Cor 3:4-6a CSB.
ICM mobilizes confident witnesses by equipping them with chronological Gospel-centred resources, teaching Bible classes, conducting workshops and offering hands-on ministry training.

Our Distinctives
Reaching those who do not understand the Gospel through outreach initiatives and life-on-life evangelism.
Teaching all ages using the entire Scriptures.
Equipping with evangelism and chronological
Bible-teaching resources.
Training through workshops and practical ministry opportunities.
Partnering with like-minded ministries
to accomplish our goal.
Chronological Bible Teaching
Chronological Bible teaching uses all of Scripture to understand its central figure, Jesus Christ, and His Gospel. Jesus is not only the central figure of Scripture. He is in all of Scripture.
The Old Testament lays the foundations for the Gospel as the King foretells His plan. Therefore, to effectively communicate the Gospel revealed in the New Testament, where the King fulfills His plan, we do well to teach chronologically from Genesis to Jesus, including His first coming and promised second coming.
This approach journeys through the eternal story of redemption from Creation to the risen Christ, revealing the character of God and His love for humanity. It builds a strong Gospel foundation that helps people understand the Gospel clearly, grow in their faith, and share the Gospel confidently.
Why teach chronologically?
-
Builds a clear and enduring Gospel foundation
-
Reveals God’s character and His love for humanity
-
Traces God’s plan of redemption from Creation to the risen Christ
-
Deepens faith and understanding of the Gospel
-
Equips believers to communicate the Gospel confidently to others
