God's call to the nations
Kelvin Crombie a knowledgeable and engaging speaker is coming to Victoria and Vancouver November 6 to the 10th. He tells the story of the establishment of Christ Church Jerusalem, the first Protestant, evangelical church to be built in the Holy Land. This mission is built on the shoulders of giants of the faith – Wilberforce, Shaftsbury, Spurgeon, the Wesleys and many others.
Kelvin has been studying this fascinating history for more than 20 years. He has written several books on the topic and was the researcher for the award winning documentary “The Cyrus Call.”
He has established heritage centres in Jerusalem, Jaffa and the Galilee, to communicate and preserve the amazing story of the role that Protestant Christians have played in facilitating the restoration of Jewish people to the Holy Land. This is an on-going story.
Kelvin addresses the reasons behind the modern restoration of Israel both Jewish and Gentile. On this 200th anniversary year he is on an international speaking tour as an ambassador of CMJ.
Accompanying Kelvin is Jess Cantelon, a young Canadian pastor who has recently joined the work of CMJ in Israel. He serves at Christ Church Jerusalem, assisting the rector and is chaplain at the Anglican International School Jerusalem. Jess is a fantastic communicator.
This event is highly significant for Christians today, considering the rising global tensions regarding the Holy Land.
