Biblical Values Education in Asia and Africa
Laura Bonney retired from SEND Canada in 2019 after 31 years of ministering to children and equipping others to do so through Christian Education. By human standards Laura was very successful in ministry! However, Laura prefers to focus on God’s faithfulness which she experienced when He:
- Gave Laura a ministry in Canada that prepared her for a similar one overseas!
- Brought Laura a compatible teammate in Ruth. Together they served for over 30 years!
- Provided mentors for Laura who helped her through difficult times.
- Guided Laura and Ruth to develop a Bible based values curriculum to be taught in Filipino classrooms. God then took them to Uganda in 2013 to start a similar program. Today, thousands of students in the Philippines, Uganda, South Sudan, Tanzania and Ethiopia are learning biblical values.
Laura is grateful to God for His unending faithfulness!

Have you ever made a New Year’s resolution only to break it in less than a week? On March 1, 1.8 billion Muslims began their annual fasting month called Ramadan.

Muslims believe that faithfully keeping the fast ensures one’s place of favor with God.
