Jesus Christ calls His church to be disciples who make disciples. In Matthew 28, Jesus spoke to His followers, even those who struggled with doubt and gave them this commission. “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Jesus Christ came to this earth on mission, and His plan of redemption now gives us our purpose…”as the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you” (John 20:21).
Each week, we desire to show and share a different aspect of what it means for us to be on mission to the world around us. This includes our community engagement, church-planting partnerships and global outreach. We want to pray for those missionaries entrusted to our care and support them in their work here in Canada and abroad. We hope you will join us as we commit ourselves to prayer throughout this month.
Also, you will be invited to participate in a Family Day outreach at Centreville-Chicopee Community Centre and enjoy the tastes and sounds of our church at our International Celebration. Support a missionary at one of our events, fill a bag for The KW Pregnancy Centre or find out more about our Grandview mission trip to Colombia this summer. So much to be a part of, and so many ways to participate! May God use this month to stir our hearts for the mission of His church and His glory.
Life on Mission Events
Month of Mission Prayer

Every weekday through the month of February
At Grandview, we have a rich history of supporting our missionary families who serve locally and globally. We desire to pray for them, intentionally and specifically. To this end, we have dedicated our weekdays this month to mission prayer. We have created this intentional prayer guide so that you will be led well to pray for our missionaries and mission organizations, Monday to Friday, for the entire month of February. May this resource be a blessing to you as you take time to pray for God’s Kingdom work. Pick up a printed copy while supplies last or download the PDF below.
