Dear fellow Canadian Baptists,
Despite being under winter's grip, the days are getting longer, giving us hope for the warmth of spring. Valentine's Day is right around the corner, and every one of us has a reason to celebrate. We are loved by the creator of the universe who

The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:
“I have loved you with an everlasting love;
I have drawn you with unfailing kindness."
Jeremiah 31:3
