Chinese-born, Rev Dr John Chan, is the Director of International Partnership for the Canadian Baptist Ministries and is leading multiple transformational international development mission in Africa and many parts of the world. He was a speaker at the recent Pan-African Catholic Congress in Nairobi. He makes a case for holistic and integral mission and partnership in the world. He argues that in today's changing contexts of global mission and the involvement in international development by churches, missionaries should bring the whole Gospel, and the whole Church to the whole World. He shares his dream or rather God's dream for the world especially how we all can serve each other and help to bring about the reign of God. He encourages everyone, especially young people to be hopeful in the uncertainties and tension in today's world, because God's Spirit and grace like fresh waters, still continue to nourish the earth and God's people even in these challenging times.
