One Hope Canada is considered a Religious Order under the provisions of the CRA and as such, missionary employment with One Hope Canada is seen as following God’s unique invitation. Members, and those aspiring to be members, must be in agreement with standards of spiritual and personal suitability, and are therefore required to sign a Statement of Affirmation annually.

The primary objective of One Hope Canada is to present the Gospel, particularly to those having the least opportunity to hear of Christ and especially to children and youth, and to disciple believers for living and serving through His church.

Roseau River Bible Camp honor’s God by evangelizing and discipling children, youth and adults using Biblical truths in our camping and conference programs.
