A great number of evangelical groups, including Church of God, are coordinating efforts and working together. This “Good News” makes us want to dedicate ourselves even more to getting the Gospel out to those who have never heard!
What is said to be ‘one of the largest prayer meetings in Canadian history’, TheCRY, is set to take place in the City of St John’s on Saturday February 21st and GOD TV will be there to beam the all-day event around the world, enabling Christians in many different countries to participate.

As we continue to press through in 2009, I encourage you to listen to what the Lord is saying to you individually and to the body corporately. This is a year to “Arise and Shine to Align for Reformation.” God began a reforming process in the church in 2008, and He continues to mold and shape us into the vessel that He needs us to be to see His kingdom manifest in the earth.
By Chaplain (Capt) Thomas R. Baize, USAF
Sheppard AFB, TX –Seven years ago God placed me in initial entry training for the United States Army. My goal of being a chaplain was complete. Little did I know that I would work in the richest harvest fields in the military; first for the Army and now for the Air Force. I came to active duty in August 2002 and was assigned as a basic training chaplain. I quickly learned that Drill Sergeants and live ammo radically increased a young man’s willingness to pray! My Battalion had been without a chaplain and the chapel service was running only about 30. With a regularly assigned chaplain presence in the barracks the chapel service quickly grew to a capacity of 270 people in attendance. Many people saw Sunday morning chapel as the only weekly escape from the Drill Sergeants, so the majority of the people in my service were not individuals that attended church on a regular basis. I correctly joked that the most common “religious preference” in my service was “backslidden”.
