I was very impressed with the Canadian National Church Planting Congress today.
I had a small part of a much larger program. I did one session with Canadian denomination leaders, one panel about reaching Quebec, and a keynote session tonight with the whole group. It is simply amazing that all these denominations come together to work on the common agenda of planting churches throughout Canada.
Tomorrow, Alan Hirsch, Cam Roxburgh, and I will lead a panel on missional church issues.
I will write more soon.

Thank you Ed for a good day. The data was significant for me and our team as we consider northern Canada and the mission.

Ed,
Thank you... 100 times thank you for your session on the journey. As a beginning church planter that was incredibly encouraging, and dicisplining.

Ed,
I was greatly challenged by the Lord through your insightful research. Thank you for praying and investing in Canadian leadership. I, and many others I know, desire to reverse the trends in the direction the 'church' has been heading. We want to see the Lord add many to His family and soon! Please pray for us as we take on this task.
Please keep at your task of helping us become better at our task.
Kevin, a Pastor in Saskatchewan, Canada.

It was great to have you! Although Picard? Hmm....
And I fully expect to see at least SOME mention of Utilikilts in the near future :-).
