Shalom and Bienvenue to our English and French friends! We greet you in the name of Yeshua and would like to share with you what we are doing at Ariel Canada. Ariel Canada is located in Montreal, Quebec, whose population is 90% French, although many are bilingual (French/English).

We have, so far, translated 60 of Dr. Fruchtenbaum’s manuscripts into French, along with Messianic Christology (Christologie Messianique), Song of Songs (Cantique des cantiques) and the soon to be released Footsteps of the Messiah (Propheties Messianique). Ariel Canada has also planted a Messianic Congregation, Beth Ariel, which meets weekly on Saturdays for a morning worship service and afternoon Bible study. There is a mid-week Bible study as well.

We have been blessed over the years as the Lord has given us the privilege of discipling many new believers. We hold firmly to the command of Yeshua that we do not merely aid in salvation, but we need to disciple and help mature all believers. We have seen the persecution that some Jewish believers go through, be it attacks from within the family or from within the Jewish community. One such Jewish believer has, because of her faith, lost work opportunities and credibility within the Jewish community where she was once an early childhood educator and was in fairly high demand. The importance of consistent and thorough Bible teachings cannot be overemphasised. We encourage and arrange for all new believers to have, whenever possible, one on one discipleship. Recognising the difference between tradition and doctrine helps to establish a fundamental reliance on the Word of God alone, which helps the believer in times of persecution and testing. We also recognise that building up believers will allow them the courage and wisdom to speak with rabbis and aver their faith with confidence.

We have an evangelism team which goes out on Monday nights. So far they have distributed over 600 Bibles and 100 videos to Jewish homes and have had dozens of at-the-door conversations concerning Yeshua’s messiahship.

The only Jewish believer living in Quebec City (capital of the province of Quebec) has joined Ariel in helping get out the pre-millennial pre-tribulation position. She will be speaking in churches and doing Messiah in the Passover presentations. We are excited to see what future lies in that city.

Ariel Canada has begun a radio teaching show once weekly for ½ hour.

Even though this ministry and the congregation run on a volunteer basis the Lord gives us many opportunities for church meetings and teaching, as well as labourers. We are grateful that it is the Word that draws those who want to serve together with Ariel for the furtherment of His Kingdom.

Until the trumpet sounds, we serve Him
