王永信牧師創辦中國信徒佈道會 (「中信」) 以「福音傳華民、恩澤遍萬邦」為目標和宣教異象。他生前一直強調,神的國度是超越個人、宗派的大國度,華人教會的領袖們都應有廣大之心,致力於普世宣教**。在他一生事奉的福音機構和宣教運動上也印證着這目標的實現。
2025年是加拿大中信温哥華中心成立25周年,標誌着加拿大中信於過去四分一世紀在城市宣教方面的努力。「將教會帶到人群,然後將人群帶回教會」是我們最大的方向。若從普世宣教的角度出發,如我們亦要把教會帶到人群,這群人應屬乎各民、各族、各方、各國。
其實,要服侍萬邦,機會就在咫尺。現在的前景比以前更好、機會更多……對福音的需求也是如此。
加拿大是一個多元文化的國家,來自不同種族和文化背景的新移民、難民、留學生不計其數,無論我們身處學校、職場、商場、食肆或其他生活場所,都不難跟他們踫面。昔日,一談「宣教」,我們往往只想到差派宣教士到千里之外的異地傳福音;其實,在宣教士往「遠方去」的同時,神亦從異地把跨文化的廣大禾場帶到我們「近處來」,這些跟我們膚色迥異、語言不同的福音對象,不少更是我們的鄰居,甚至住在同一社區的未得之民。
神已把這個跨文化宣教的契機放在我們眼前, 大家又是否願意抓緊這個讓「恩澤遍萬邦」的良機,為擴展上帝的國度擺上更多?這正是加拿大中信慈善基金會於王永信牧師百歲週年紀念之際成立「王永信牧師紀念基金」的原因——紀念他的事奉人生、延續他的普世宣教初心、和傳承他留给我們寶貴的屬靈遺產。

Rev. Thomas Wang, founder of the Chinese Christian Mission ("CCM"), established the organization with the vision of "Reaching the Chinese to Reach the World". Throughout his life, he emphasized that God's Kingdom transcends individuals and denominations — a vast Kingdom that calls for broad-mindedness and commitment from all leaders of the Chinese Church to the cause of global missions. His lifelong ministry and leadership in evangelistic organizations and mission movements bore testament to this vision in action.
The year 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of CCM Canada Vancouver Centre, a milestone that reflects a quarter-century of dedication to urban mission in Canada. Our primary goal has been "Bringing the Church to the people, then Bringing the people back to the Church". From the perspective of global missions, reaching the people means reaching people of every tribe, race, language, and nation.
In reality, the opportunity to serve the nations is already near at hand. The prospects now are even better and more than before… and so as the gospel needs.
Canada is a multicultural country, home to countless newcomers—immigrants, refugees, and international students — from diverse racial and cultural backgrounds. Whether in schools, workplaces, shopping malls, restaurants, or other daily environments, we regularly encounter them. In the past, "missions" typically meant sending missionaries overseas. But today, even as missionaries go abroad, God is bringing a vast cross-cultural mission field right to our doorstep. Many of these people — who may look different from us and speak a different language — are in fact our neighbors, living in the same community, many of them are among the unreached.
God has placed this cross-cultural mission opportunity before us. Are we willing to seize it and embrace God's calling to extend His grace to all nations and to advance His Kingdom?
CCM Canada Charitable Foundation established the "Rev. Thomas Wang Memorial Fund", in commemoration of Rev. Wang's 100th birthday anniversary, to honor his life of service, to carry forward his heart for global missions, and to pass down the rich spiritual legacy he left behind.
