Why partner in calgary?
Why is Calgary an amazing Great Commission opportunity and investment for your church?
It's growing rapidly, steadily and internationally.
​
1. Calgary was the fastest-growing major municipality in Canada in 2023 and 2024. Calgary-metro is now home to 1.7 million people.
​
2. The city of Calgary’s population grew by 6% per cent in 2023-2024 adding around 96,000 people annually. Growth is projected to continue at a rate between 4-6% annually.
3. The biggest driver of Calgary’s population growth so far has been the non-permanent resident component from outside of Canada. About 63% of Calgary's growth was from international immigration.
​​
​
As Calgary continues to grow, the gospel need grows.
We invite your church or organization to be part of the growth.
​
What does this mean for our churches here in Calgary?
1. We need to increase our capacity to make more disciples and start more churches
2. We need to develop healthy leaders who can plant healthy churches that last and multiply
3. We can reach the nations without leaving our neighbourhoods
​
What does this mean for your church?
1. Your church can learn and take back creative, contextual, multicultural outreach ideas that have helped our churches engage their communities
2. Your people can tangibly be a part of the Great Commission by holding the rope for our leaders (Praying, Coming and Giving)
3. Your church can experience Acts 1:8 in realtime
​
Our churches are on mission in Calgary.
We invite your church/organization to be part of the mission.
