About Christian Missions Resource Centre

Christian Missions Resource Centre is a community organization located on Chancton Crescent in the Westminster neighbourhood of London, Ontario. The organization serves as a catalyst to help mobilize Canadians and local churches toward personal involvement in supporting the world's needy. It works with local organizations in Canada and missional agencies overseas to assist pastors and ministries in communities of poverty, providing both practical and spiritual gifts of help. The organization offers a variety of services and resources, including short-term missions trips, video production for teaching series and children's ministry, and the construction of church buildings. They provide educational resources and assets, specifically highlighting the Classroom Computer Project in Iquitos, Peru, which offers scholarship funding for girls in poverty to attend government-qualified institutes and earn Microsoft certifications. Other areas of support include providing pastor salaries, food, and general support for ministries in countries such as Peru, Guatemala, Cuba, Colombia, and the Philippines. Founded in 1995 by Rev. Doug Springer, the Christian Missions Resource Centre officially began its ministry on July 4, 1996. It grew out of Springer’s desire to help Canadian churches develop strong missional attitudes and actions based on his experiences pastoring in Canada’s far North and ministering in over 20 countries. The organization is currently led by Executive Director Doug Springer, with a board that includes Board Chair Doug Stanlake, Treasurer Daniel Bantseev, and board member Terry Pasiuk.
