Quebec Radio & Online Ministry

Organization
Aujourd’hui l’Espoir (TWR Canada)

Leader
Eric & Annabelle Perron

They create and distribute original content and translate English materials to share the gospel and build up the evangelical community in Quebec. They connect callers via their toll-free “Hope Line” with local churches so pastors and volunteers can follow up with materials and personal conversations with new believers.

Prayer Points

• Wisdom and clarity for translators and producers to make content ministering specifically for Quebecois culture
• Staff and volunteers to join the team to help with the growing radio station
• For more people to listen to the radio and give their lives to Jesus
