If you are part of a local ARPA group and have not yet registered for this conference, take note of some of the events...

Note: See poet A. Blokhuis' reflection on the fall tour and broader work we are doing together here. The ARPA Canada national tour has already hit 14 locations with about 2,600 people in attendance. That is more than double what we have seen in the past couple years and five times as many as when we started. Every audience was both incredibly supportive/engaged and yet unique. Thank you! At the Fergus event on Wednesday evening (Nov. 6) our friend David VanVeen (pictured right) delivered a short message at the end,...

In the early morning hours of Thursday, September 26th, two dozen delegates representing six of the nine different Ontario ARPA groups came together for a packed day of serious political engagement. And what a day!The delegates met for breakfast and some much needed coffee (some reps were on the road already at 4:00 a.m. that morning!) at Westminster Chapel, a space graciously made available to us. After we dug into the meal, André Schutten led us through an orientation, giving tips on meetings with members of provincial parliament and their staff.

Whose kids are they anyway? Wrestling our children from the grip of the State This year, the Supreme Court of Canada agreed to hear a case that will have a greater impact on Christian education than any case in our nation's recent history.

Update: Click here for full coverage of the service, from LifeSiteNews.com. It's only the second year where ARPA and Jubilee church in Ottawa have co-hosted a Reformed prayer service before the March for Life and we saw a packed church with standing room only. The service was held at First Baptist Church in downtown Ottawa. From there everyone went to Parliament Hill for the speeches and March. It is so good to see so many people turn their hearts to God in supplication, before taking to the streets.
