CANADA REPORT
March, 2010

Greetings to all the readers of Key Points. It has been some time since our last Canada Report, for which I apologize. It is a little late to wish you a happy New Year, however, perhaps better late than never!

The work in Canada continues to go very well with an average of 74 calls per month in 2009. Never enough, but we give thanks for all who have called, for those who have obeyed the gospel and all who are presently taking the Bible course, spending time in study of God's word.

Three items of good news to share:

First, as you likely know, television time is the largest single cost we face each year. Most every year we can expect an increase in our contract cost. However, Vision and Grace TV have renewed our contract through February, 2011, at the same price as last year.

Secondly, Key is now on radio in Canada. The church in Kenora, ON, is presenting the programme on their local station, CJRL Radio, at 7:30 each Sunday morning. Details of the local congregation are given at the beginning of each broadcast to encourage people to visit the services as well as take the Bible course that is offered. Contact us if you are interested in using Key in this way.

Thirdly, "Anchored In The Word" is the first in a series of DVD Bible studies we are producing. A second one, "How The Study the Bible," is being edited, and a third, "The Problem of Sin and its Remedy," was filmed on March 16. Each lesson is recorded in three 30 minute segments. We have had many requests for the first one and believe these studies can be very helpful to individuals who desire to know the will of God better.

Recently, while out walking my dog, I met a couple of ladies and a young man walking on the opposite side of the street. One of the ladies called to me and came across the street to talk. She said she has been watching the programme for a while and really enjoys it. She said, "The thing I like about the programme is that you are teaching the truth." She went on to say she was unhappy with "her church" and with a lot of what she had seen on television because the teaching does not agree with the Bible. She said she was looking for a church home and was going to visit us soon. We look forward to her visit.

I know that both Bret and I, along with all who support this ministry, want the truth of God, and only the truth of God, taught from week to week. Sowing the pure seed of God in the hearts of mankind is what the programme continues to be about. And that is why brethren everywhere need to pray for, promote and support financially the Key To The Kingdom ministry. May God bless each of you who support this work in prayer, promotion and monetarily.

In Christ,
Max
