Women
Mission Canada Women exists to care for and disciple women to reach their God-given potential. We endeavour to provide resources and opportunities to network women of Canada through leadership development, prayer, missions and mentoring. We value relationships with women of every culture and generation. We believe in the intrinsic value of women and their potential to affect the eternal destiny of this generation in Canada and beyond. We seek to facilitate and empower women to achieve their God-given dreams. Our goal is to see passion increased, potential unleashed and purpose fulfilled. We desire to work with the local church to empower every woman to be a person of influence in her community. As we identify the need in demographic area, we can respond with relevancy in touching others and living "Beyond Ourselves."
As generations are connected, we will cultivate unity, inspire faith, experience personal spiritual growth and create community. Our 'good deeds' will display the love of God and move us from an inward focus to one of others – "Beyond Ourselves."
"We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well!" 1 Thessalonians 2:8 NIV As we are passionate about women coming to faith in Christ, we will then desire to assist them in becoming healthy disciples. Our passion helps us discover ways to serve women and help them find the full life Jesus promised. Passion is described as 'a compelling emotion or devotion.' It is the catalyst that moves us forward in the journey of life.

PrayerPrayer is the essence of our relationship with god and the foundation for an effective, passionate, purposeful life. God is calling women from across the nation to earnest prayer so that, like Esther, miracles and spiritual victories are experienced. May women rise to the occasion and petition God for our churches, our communities, our leaders, our nation, our families, our students and our needs. There is a definite urgency!
Missions
Mission Canada
Canada is a mission field! The Mission Canada vision of Loving, Living, and Leading guides us as we endeavour to reach and transform our society. Canadian women's roles and the demands the face are increasingly challenging. Our vision is to see that women are built up, coached and released into our communities. We embrace the diversity of our culture by inspiring women to engage with and provide services to women from all walks of life – single moms, widows, ethnic minorities, First Nation women, those working in corporations, in government, and those living in both urban and rural communities. Through mentoring, missions, and leadership development, we are transferring this vision to the NEXT GENERATION.
International Missions
Mission Canada Women continues to partner with International Missions to make a significant difference through communication, prayer and financial gifts to individuals and projects. We war building a greater connection with our missionaries by responding to their need sin practical and relevant ways. Opportunities for short term mission trips are opening eyes and hearts to the lives and needs of those in other nations and to the lives of out international workers who serve them.
PlanMission Canada Women is no longer just a monthly meeting. It is a lifestyle that provides an atmosphere that will accommodate the changing needs of today's women. Our mission is to encourage any action that brings another person closer to God. It can include a variety of activities, including multi-faceted events such as small groups, outreach activities, church and community services, random acts of kindness, missions in Canada and overseas, leadership development, prayer endeavours and conferences. Mentoring and coaching women is a heart cry of the generations. As we respond we can share faith, wisdom, passion, understanding, experience and love. We encourage women to rise up and reach beyond themselves to bring hope to a hurting world.

Cross Generational Lines - Connect the Dots
by Kristy Dahms, Cobden ON
"Honour older people as we do our own aged parents, and care for other's children as one's own." Chinese proverb
I've had the unique privilege of growing up in a community and family that instilled in the fabric of my being - the value of generations. I'm surrounded with my generational roots, and have heard tales of the yester years and the chanteys' and when they first bought their black and white T.V.; while contrasting those stories at family gatherings we've taught our 93 year old grandma to play the Wii! My appreciation for family of all ages could also be the fact that my mother is a genealogist in her spare time and has recorded over 60,000 names of our family tree. . . I've got a big family!
