The people we partner with

RBC has been sending out mission partners for 90 years. The people that we currently support financially work in Asia, Europe, North America and Africa. They work in a wide range of fields including the relief of poverty, evangelism, education, medicine, urban ministry, Bible distribution and environmental conservation.

Some of our recent partnership projects include:

• Providing funding to build two birthing huts (almost 3, actually) in Sierra Leone, Africa

• Participating in relief & development efforts in India

• Collecting shoes and other essential items for Haiti;

• Engaging our Sunday school children in missions work by raising funds to purchase soccer balls for a community in Kenya

• Supporting our young adults on short-term missions endeavours; and

• Providing funding for the ministry of La Corde in Pierrefonds, QC.

Missions and Youth: RBC has also supported our youth and young adults in several missions trips to Jamaica and in helping post-secondary students attend the Urbana Missions Conference (held every 3 years in St-Louis, MO).

We also regularly feature the work of local and foreign missions in our Sunday bulletin and hold missions lunches several times per year to hear from/about and to pray for missionaries. We also engage in practical projects that assist missionaries and Christian organizations around the world.
