Message from the Chairman
C4i (Christians for Israel) exists to serve God by helping Israel’s less fortunate citizens with their daily needs amid violent and challenging economic times.
C4i Canada was established in 1997 and recognized by the Canadian government as a registered charity in October 2005. C4i America was incorporated in October 2012 and received 501c3 charitable status from the IRS in April 2014.
Official recognition as charities in Canada and the U.S. allows us to issue tax receipts to donors who recognize the importance of supporting the people of Israel as they struggle to survive against a rising global tide of anti-Semitism, ongoing terror, and nations that constantly threaten to ‘wipe Israel off the map.’
That said, our focus remains charitable, not political!
Our humanitarian goals are shaped by a biblical world view that sees Israel as a Chosen Nation uniquely raised up by the Almighty God – the God of Israel - to reflect His ethical and moral standards in the world. We also understand that God chose and used Israel to provide a Saviour whose death would become an atoning sacrifice for sin for all who believed in Him – Jesus of Nazareth!
This is the message we now proclaim to the world via our popular television show, The Prophetic Connection. Numerous series, filmed originally in English and on location in Israel, are now available in the Farsi language. Other language versions are planned.
The growth of our ministry in recent years has been nothing short of remarkable. More recent staff additions, people with global experience, has broadened our international vision and reach. In addition, seasons that were originally developed for television are now available in radio format providing exceptional teaching resources for pastors and others in the Third World who do not have access to formal educational opportunities such as Bible Colleges or Seminaries.
Our mandate for ministry is driven and shaped by Jesus’ prophetic proclamation:
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14).
We are grateful to the Lord for His guidance all through the years, the blessing of a dedicated Board of Directors who oversee the ministry, an international ministry team with exceptional skills and experience, and an ever-increasing donor base of generous people who are wise in their ways and willing to swim against a global tide of hatred aimed at the only nation on earth God called into existence!
