LMT Webinar - Living out Biblical Hospitality with International Students
Date / November 25, 2023
Location / Online / From 8:00-9:30 PM (EST)
You are invited to hear from Stuart and Mary Smith, and Erica Morrison, staff with International Students Ministries Canada, on how to minister to international students, particularly those of Muslim faith, who have come to our country's door.
"There is an amazing opportunity happening right under our noses. In the past (and still today), many missionaries go over at great expense, difficulty, and risk to reach to people with the love of Jesus in far away countries. This is wonderful.
But in the past few decades, the number of international students coming right here to Canada –from many countries extremely closed to the gospel– has increased astronomically, and is supposed to continue to grow.
Did you know, though, that so many international students, despite longing for Canadian friends, go back home never having been invited to a Canadian home...let alone hearing about Jesus? " (Erica)
"International Student Ministries Canada (ISMC) is a ministry in Canada focused on ministering to international students, empowering them to become fully devoted followers of Jesus and to reach out and minister to those God has placed in their lives, whether in Canada or in their home country."
In this webinar you will learn about:
- Principles of how to reach out in a way that blesses students and attracts them to Christ
- Ideas on how to meet international students
- Practical ways to get involved with international students, especially during the upcoming Christmas season
Stuart & Mary Smith have been involved with international students and newcomers since 2002, developing many friendships with Muslims. They have been associate staff with ISMC for nearly 10 years and Stuart is London City Director. In his day job, he is general manager of an IT company.
Erica Morrison lives in St. Thomas, Ontario with her husband and two boys, and has been volunteering for International Student Ministries Canada for 7 years. She loves interacting with people of other cultures and empowering students to make a difference in this world.
