About us

If you are passionate about discipling people with the Bible – God’s Word — then Bible League Canada provides you with the best opportunity to go and make disciples.

By connecting Canadian donor champions like you with global champions, you will see maximum impact and multiplying transformation in nearly 50 countries. Local believers are equipped through Bible-centric discipleship programs to become champions for the Gospel, and are reaching their own communities with the Living Word of God!

Yes! All donations are tax receiptable within Canada.

Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we equip and empower believers of Christ in nearly 50 countries to become local champions to transform their own communities. These local champions will reach out to their communities through one or a combination of four different ways depending on the context of the countries we work in.

• Starting New Churches Ministry: Training and equipping local champions (church planters) with Scriptures and discipleship resources.
• Children’s Ministry: Providing a safe learning environment for children in regions of deep poverty to learn about the love of Jesus.
• Adult Bible-based Ministry: Teaching illiterate men and women to read and write using Bible-based literacy material.
• Persecuted Church ministry: Partnering with Christians in countries where persecution denies them the freedom to worship.

Everywhere we work, there are three things that always go together:  the Word of God, local believers and training.

Our work spans to nearly 50 countries and across five continents. See here for details of region profiles and specific ministries.

All people who do not know Christ as their Saviour are in need of the Good News of Jesus Christ. Thus, all areas are in need of the Scriptures and someone who knows the culture in order to share the Gospel and disciple the communities for the Kingdom of God. You can see our current projects here.

No, we are an interdenominational charitable organization.

Bible League Canada is committed to keeping administrative costs as low as possible. We are able to keep our costs low because of the hard work of Bible League Canada staff and the partnerships in the countries where ministry happens. 80% of total expenditures in fiscal year 2023-24 went towards international ministry, 10% was spent on Administration, and 10% on Fundraising. A full report of our most recent financials can be found in the Annual Report, located here.

In 2007, in order to meet CRA regulations, Bible League Canada separated from Bible League International. We are a totally separate ministry, with no corporate ties. We are uniquely Canadian, with a Canadian board and staff. Recently BLC and BLI have entered into a joint ministry relationship for specific projects.

Yes. In 1960 our name was the Canadian Home Bible League. In 1984, we changed our name to the World Home Bible League of Canada. In 1992, our name was changed to The Bible League of Canada. Presently we are known as Bible League Canada.

Yes. You can certainly give a gift in honour or in memory of a loved one, or for a special celebration, such as an anniversary or birthday gift.

Bible League Canada does not send North Americans to do work in other countries. We partner with Christians living in the countries themselves to do the work of Starting New Churches (church planting), children’s ministry and adult literacy in their own countries. We’ve found this to be a much more effective way to evangelize in nations where the church is strong and leadership is in place. Working with national Christians who give their time and resources to reach their fellow citizens with the Good News of Jesus Christ we believe is the most impactful way to impact a community or nation. Your prayer support and any financial gifts that you are able to give are certainly appreciated.

Bibles and resource materials used in ministry programs are usually printed as close as possible to the regions where they are needed. This is not only most economical but also supports the region where ministry is happening.

Bible League Canada has spent years cultivating partnerships with experienced ministries and directors who have a thorough understanding of the country and culture they work in. By raising funds for the work they are doing, they can concentrate on what they do best: reach people for Christ.

Bible League Canada, through your generosity, does what we do best: find, build, and fund extraordinary partnerships that align with our, and your, vision for ministry.

The mailings we send to our donors are an important way of letting them know about the ministry of Bible League Canada and to inspire people to continue to give to the ministry work. Funds we receive in response to the mail we send greatly outweighs the cost of sending these appeals, so we think it’s worthwhile to keep sending mail. You’re always welcome to ask us to reduce the number of mailings sent to you or opt-in to receive our mailings by email.

We get these kinds of requests from all over the world.

All of our work is done through partner ministries. According to CRA regulations, unless we, as an organization, have an existing missions agreement, we cannot send Bibles or money outside of Canada to another ministry or person.

However, you, as an individual, are able to purchase Bibles and send them to the person or ministry you wish to bless.
