Be Disciples. Make Disciples.

Jesus told his disciples to go and make disciples of all the nations. The discipleship process can sometimes seem mysterious or heavy. But it’s something that every Christian can and should be involved in as their relationship with Christ deepens.

Being a disciple of Jesus is an important first step for anyone hoping to be involved in missions. But what does that mean? SEND Canada's director talks about it in this video.




SEND offers resources and stories that illustrate how you can grow in your own discipleship and disciple others, both where you are and around the world. We invite you to explore this with us. 

Be disciples. Make disciples. Together, let's do both.
