GLOW TORONTO MISSON
An Experience for the Whole Family
A REASON TO CELEBRATE
This summer, thousands of people across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) will attend major gatherings planned for Canada Day on July 1. Although we are happy for the day, we have more than one reason to celebrate. Blessed to live in one of the best countries in the world, we still have a better land that God is preparing for us and for all who choose to believe in Him. As a result, we desire to invite as many people as possible to join us in preparing for the coming of our Lord. To fulfill this high calling, there is a great need to share God’s word in creative and relevant ways, for it is the Word that transforms lives.
In the book, To Be Like Jesus, we read:
“I was given instruction that as we approach the end, there will be large gatherings in our cities…and that preparations must be made to present the truth at these gatherings. When Christ was upon this earth, He took advantage of such opportunities. Wherever a large number of people was gathered for any purpose, His voice was heard, clear and distinct, giving His message. And as a result, after His crucifixion and ascension, thousands were converted in a day…Leaflets containing the light of present truth should be scattered among the people like the leaves of autumn. To many who attend these gatherings these leaflets would be as the leaves of the tree of life, which are for the healing of the nations… The time has come when, as never before, Seventh-day Adventists are to arise and shine, because their light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon them.” –BLJ, p. 278
