Lively discussions broke out in many of the Congress’s break-out seminars.
“God is constantly disturbing the peace to bring a true sense of peace and shalom into the world,” said Congress speaker Danielle Strickland of the Salvation Army.
Pastor Andrew Lau of Cornerstone Community Church near Toronto revealed how his congregation became truly multicultural.
“We sometimes forget who we are and why we are here,” said David Macfarlane, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association of Canada’s director of national initiatives. “We forget what really matters.”
