Rev. Dr. John McDonald who has a great heart for helping ministers in ministry, first approached Dr. Ron Morin and Dr. Bryan Vaughan with the vision. When they heard it, they immediately knew that such an organization would be pleasing to God. They came together and formed what was known as The Canadian Association of Ministries and Pastors (CAMP). This later became The Canadian Minister\u2019s Federation (CCMF).<\/p>\n<p>Rev. David Ramiah, Rev. Dr. Michael Taylor, Rev. David Callejas, and Rev. Dr. Raymond Cradock were later consecutively asked to become part of the Executive Council, to help lead this wonderful ministry.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past years CCMF has grown much, and we could write books on how we have seen the hand of GOD at work in our membership and the ministries in which they have been called to.<\/p>\n<p>Rev. Dr. Ron Morin retired in the year 2013 and got busy founding \u201cGilgal Christian Community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rev. Dr. John McDonald retired and resigned from The Canadian Christian Ministers Federation\u2019s leadership in 2019, but he is still a member of CCMF. He has not retired from ministry as he is still very active in the Kingdom along with his wife, Lorna. The two of them are busy with mentoring young Evangelists, preaching the gospel wherever and whenever the opportunity is presented, and teaching Bible courses.<\/p>\n<p>We want to thank Dr. John and Dr. Ron for all their work in helping to establish The Canadian Minister\u2019s Federation.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><div class=\"sc_section margin_bottom_huge\" data-animation=\"animated fadeInUp normal\" style=\"background-image:url(http:\/\/dev.eonlink.ca\/ccmf\/igloapho\/2016\/09\/contacts.jpg);background-repeat:no-repeat;background-size:cover;\"><div class=\"sc_section_inner\"><div class=\"sc_section_overlay\" style=\"\"><div class=\"sc_section_content padding_on\" style=\"\"><div class=\"sc_section_content_wrap\"><div class=\"columns_wrap sc_columns columns_nofluid sc_columns_count_3 promo_section\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1.65rem;\"><div class=\"column-1_3 sc_column_item sc_column_item_1 odd first\" style=\"text-align:center;\"><h4 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\" style=\"margin-top: 0.94em;margin-bottom: 0;color:#dbb66d;font-weight:700;font-size:1.875em;\">01.<\/h4><h4 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\" style=\"margin-top: 0.27em;margin-bottom: 0.2em;\">Live Connected<\/h4>[vc_column_text]We have a strong sense of community[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><div class=\"column-1_3 sc_column_item sc_column_item_2 even\" style=\"text-align:center;\"><h4 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\" style=\"margin-top: 0.94em;margin-bottom: 0;color:#dbb66d;font-weight:700;font-size:1.875em;\">02.<\/h4><h4 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\" style=\"margin-top: 0.27em;margin-bottom: 0.2em;\">Be Transformed<\/h4>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dev.eonlink.ca\/ccmf\/ordination-and-conferring-credentials\/\">Join CCMF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><div class=\"column-1_3 sc_column_item sc_column_item_3 odd\" style=\"text-align:center;\"><h4 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\" style=\"margin-top: 0.94em;margin-bottom: 0;color:#dbb66d;font-weight:700;font-size:1.875em;\">03.<\/h4><h4 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\" style=\"margin-top: 0.27em;margin-bottom: 0.2em;\"><\/p>\n<p>Strengthen Your Ministry<\/p>\n<p><\/h4>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>As Iron sharpens iron &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221;
