On the passing of Rev. Dr. Allen Churchill

 Rev. Dr. Allen Churchill

On behalf of the Board of the Good News Christian Ministries, it is with sadness that we announce the death of our Founder, the Rev Dr. Allen Churchill, on 16 December 2017, peacefully, but after a long illness, which has been hard for his beloved wife Alma, and many others who loved him.  A towering intellect, he focused his energies on delivering the Good News of Jesus Christ resurrected to his congregations, to his city, Ottawa, and to his thousands of radio listeners world wide.  He had a long association 580 CFRA, and will be missed by many there. Our condolences go to his widow Alma, his associates in Good News Christian Ministries, and to you, the listeners.  His legacy to all of us lives on in the podcasts of his programs, accessible through our website. 

Rev. Dave Kemp, Chair
Good News Christian Ministries

Excerpt from Allen Churchill's book: "Cultivating God's Presence" - Chapter 15: "The Confidence of Faith":

"No one comes to God, the Father, in such a fullness of understanding, with such a depth of healing and transformation, and with such confidence in the end result, as the one who comes to God through Jesus Christ. In Christ, we move beyond the casual and the mediocre to the kind of faith in and personal relationship with God that changes our worship into true praise, our work into true ministry, and our witness into true evangelism. There is so much to do and so little time to do it. Let us therefore move beyond the casual and the mediocre to a faithfulness that is worthy of Jesus Christ and effective in both the church and the world."
