Event Description

            The Evangelical Missiological Society's 2018 theme, “Mission & Evangelism in a Secularizing World,” seeks to explore the creative and collaborative ways of Kingdom engagement in a Canadian context.

  • It is time to do things we have never done before.

  • Church regeneration through renewed leaders.

  • Engaging the Secular Heart through Biblical Hospitality.


            This year’s regional meeting at the five EMS Centres across Canada will feature 13 cutting-edge paper presentations. In Alberta:
