I give thanks to God! After arriving in Canada 4 1/2 years ago, Literacy & Evangelism International has reached the next major milestone (or kilometer stone) in God's developing this ministry in Canada. In December 2008, we received our registered charity status! This status opens up many opportunities for sharing the good news of Jesus Christ through literacy & English language ministries within Canada and internationally. This also brings many opportunities for completing government paperwork!
We say thank you to Dr. John McDonald with Vanguard Ministries, a ministry that helps Christian organizations incorporate and register as charitable organizations in Canada. He greatly assisted us in this process.
The effect of this registration (besides more paperwork)...
+ donors can be assured that we are a legitimate organization whose purpose is charitable
+ our activities and use of donations is monitored by the Charities Directorate
+ we can now issue Canadian tax receipts for donations
We also have on-line giving capabilities, visit www.canadahelps.org (CND$) or www.literacyevangelism.org (US$)
