MONTREAL
There are incredible opportunities to reach immigrants from the Middle East in Montreal. In 1986 there was one mosque in Montreal, today there are more than 130. Consider partnering with a church planter there who is specifically reaching this people group.

LITHUANIA
The nation of Lithuania has fewer than 1% evangelical Christians and has one of the highest suicide rates on the globe. Millennials have abandoned the state religion and become agnostic. They are raising their children without any knowledge of God. Lithuania needs the hope that comes from a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
