is important.  May God richly bless you!
 

From Zachariah Kenney, Assistant to the Director, and the staff of BLF Canada...

BLF Canada would like to thank all of those who have prayed for and otherwise supported our ministry this past year. It is through the support of the body of Christ working with the power of God that we can do what we do!  2011 has been an exciting year of growth and expansion.

This year:

  • We praise God that a field office has opened in Quebec.
  • We praise God for partnerships forged this year.
  • We praise God for Zachariah Kenney and Shirley Plett, who joined the staff at the start of 2011. They have been a great asset to the ministry.
  • We praise God for Director Toe-Blake Roy for his continued dedication and sacrifice.
  • We praise God for new missionary couple Francois and Marie-Paul Bedard.
  • We praise God for everyone who donated money to the various BLF projects this year.
  • We are thankful that missionary Daniel Julien is getting the help that he needs. He continues with is medical leave of absence and we hope to see him in ministry again at the end of 2012..


From Alain Stamp, president of BLF Europe, From Philip Kapitaniuk, Director of Publishing, BLF Europe, and the staff of BLF Europe...

Praise God – What a Fantastic and Faithful God is He. This past year God has expanded His work at BLF Europe greatly!  Please join us to life praise and thanksgiving to Him who is the only and faithful God who loves, forgives, blesses saves and continues in that forever and ever.  How completely wonderful He is in every way!

As we have stated for years and years, God has called us to provide excellent Bibles and Literature in French to the entire Francophone world.  His calling for us is to provide His message in print at a low cost (and in some cases at not cost) to get His Word in the hands of many to see even more to come to Jesus Christ and to grow in Him.  God has been so faithful !

This year of 2011 we have seen God ...

  • Send Bibles and Literature in French to all of French speaking Europe.
  • Send Bibles and Literature in French to many countries in French speaking Africa.
  • Send Bibles and Literature in French to pastors in Haiti to share with many there.
  • To provide Bibles and Literature in French to help BLF Canada reach the Francophone population there.  We are excited at the prospect of working ever closer with BLF Canada this coming year towards that end.
  • Provide new markets and cultures accept His Word that we've never seen before.  We are SO impressed with how God has used the Manga series (FAR beyond our expectations!), Francsis Chan's Crazy Love, and many many other titles.
  • Allow us to work with France Pour Christ and many other groups in France to reach out to share Christ with His printed Word with what we have published.
  • Our goals to reach 100 books in His work at BLF have been realized with even more on the way.  Books that have and continue to change lives for Christ - to point people to know Jesus.  To point people to Jesus - our passion, our heart of focus.
  • Despite tough economic times - God remains faithful.  He is giving us new vision to maximize our effectiveness to His calling.  This coming year, we are transitioning our focus to more "publishing" than "printing".  It doesn't change what our purpose is - it is something God is making clear to help us even further accomplish our goals to present Bibles and Literature in French worldwide.  Please pray with us regarding He is leading - we are so excited for what He is about to do in 2012 for His glory!

As we progress to 2012, we sincerely covet your ongoing prayer, participation, partnership and support to accomplish His work at BLF.  Thank you.  Please praise His name.  He is so completely worthy in every way!

Our partners, our dear brothers & sisters of BLF Canada are growing and reaching many for Christ. At BLF USA we praise God for how He continues to answer our prayers for God’s work at BLF Canada. Thank you Jesus!
  • Praise God for BLF Europe. Our original purpose for BLF was to provide high quality printed Bibles and Christian books at a low price to get into the hands of Francophone people worldwide. With over 100 titles in print, BLF Europe is focusing on publishing and distribution as economically feasible as possible. The staff there has grown and God is using them to impact Europe, Africa, Canada and an ever increasing scope of outreach. Oh, praise God for His work!
  • Praise God for what God is doing at BLF US. We currently have 3 full time missionary staff at BLF Europe, Leadership and Mentor packs in French have been funded and delivered to many pastors in Africa and in many other areas of the world. Many Impressions Teams have participated in the work in BLF Europe and their partners with France Pour Christ in outreach. Teams have helped with production, ministered to others and have grown through how God has blessed their goings. God has provided a staff at our home office who have helped so many. God is SO good – His love gives life that glorifies Him – what a privilege to serve Him and His purpose from day to day!
  • As this new year progresses we so want to say THANK YOU for your ongoing partnership with His work to reach the Francophone people for Jesus Christ. THANK YOU for your most valuable prayers and financial support to enable His work at BLF USA.  Please continue to partner with us this year as we remain faithful to His calling of this ministry!

This day, this week, this new year's eve / day, please set aside time - for you, your church group, your Bible study - to come before His throne in prayer and bring before Him thanks and praise for how truly wonderful and faithful He is.  Thank you for doing this.  Amen to His year of faithfulness and opportunities in 2011.
