World Changers

In Matthew 28:18, Jesus said, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”

Each of us has a beautiful, unique calling, but we are all called to ‘go’ so that the name of Jesus can be made known to every nation, tribe, and tongue. For all of us, we need to go to our neighbor. For some of us, that is in our home towns, a local coffee shop, a 9-5 job being a witness in the secular world and financially supporting those on the field. For others, the go is to the unreached corners of the earth, to distant nations and unfamiliar cultures.

The reality is, too many people haven’t heard the gospel message, haven’t had their hearts filled with the hope of Jesus, encountered the Holy Spirit, and don’t know the Father loves them. This is why we must go!

This is why World Changers exists.

Birthed out of the Toronto Blessing over 20 years ago, Catch The Fire World Changers is a partnership program devoted to spreading God's transforming presence worldwide. We seek to bring change by spreading our Catch The Fire values: Presence, Encounter, and Transformation, everywhere we go. Our heart is for the lost. Our heart is for the unreached. Our heart is for the nations. Our heart is mission.

One moment in God’s presence and lives are changed forever.

When I heard about the trip to Uganda to distribute bibles to unreached people groups I remember the excitement I felt in my spirit. I was filled with questions about how my husband and I would manage to bring our 1 year old on a trip that included camping and long boat rides into the unknown. There were so many reasons to be scared and so many excuses we could have used to not go, but the call from God to go to the nations and make disciples overtook any feelings of trepidation we had.
One of the biggest challenges that we faced on this trip was the long boat ride to the first Island we visited. We were in a small fishing boat with no shelter from the hot equator sun for 8 long hours as the boat rocked from side to side from the waves. For much of the journey there was no land in sight and I remember the thoughts creeping in, growing in intensity as each hour passed. “Why did we come here?” Will my baby be ok?” “What if the boat tips over?” I can’t do this, it’s too hard.” Each moment was a fresh invitation to press into Jesus in a deeper way than I had ever done before. My comfort zone had been fully stripped away and I had to rely on faith that the Jesus who calms the storm was with me. Each moment I had to remind myself that this trip was not for me it was for Jesus. This trip was a sacrifice but a privilege to serve the Lord in this way. Looking back I can see that while this was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, my faith levels and closeness to God have grown in a way they couldn’t have at home.
As we arrived on each island and the people gathered, our whole team stood up to say their name and where they had come from. It was so beautiful to see their faces light up as they heard how far we had travelled to share that they were loved and valued. Even if we hadn’t done any ministry just the joy on people’s faces as they said “thank you for coming” would have been worth the long trip. Just the act of going imparted something of the love of God on those islands.
On one island my trip mate Gabi preached on God, the loving father. As he shared and afterwards as I led a short ministry time you could feel the loving embrace of God in the room as people heard the revelation that there is nothing that could separate them from the love of God. We broke off shame and hopelessness which had been weighty in the room in Jesus name and we saw hope and life fill the gap as the presence of God filled the room.
I am so thankful we chose to say yes and join in with this adventure! Bringing the love of Jesus to a part of God’s creation so different to my usual reality has marked me forever.

The CTF mission trip to Uganda changed my life, seeing the hunger of God in the people was amazing. Africa is so much more that a poor country. How the Lord is so good and he sent us to Africa for visit many islands and give Bibles to places where they can’t get them was an honour. See God moving their hearts since the first second there, was amazing! In the conference, in the islands and also in us the whole time.
One of the highlights of the trip was at the conference, when the Holy Spirit lead us to an amazing worship and dance, his love and his power broke all the chains that the locals had in their lives. See this freedom in the people was one of the best moments of my life.
Other highlight of the trip was the islands and even when wasn’t comfortable or easy his hand was always protecting us and how I enjoyed so much this part of the mission was unbelievable; giving bibles, visiting churches, being with kids, the food, the locals, the worship. I think God pour his strength in me, and he showed me that he is enough, many times I worry for things causing me anxiety, he proved that he is enough and that he is really almighty and omnipotent!

June 2023 I had the great opportunity to go to Uganda with the CTF team. It was an international team and we didn't even know each other beforehand, but God did! I believe He has set this up knowing where and what He needed us for.
It's been just amazing to see God move and so many people impacted by His presence. One day during the conference we were sharing about the father's heart and incredibly each member of our teams had a different story related to the father that we could cover all the examples we were talking about! I can't forget the high response from the community, people showed so much need of love and many of them broke in tears feeling God's love upon them. One moment in particular that I remember, we were simply hugging people, but what looked like a simple Hug was indeed the arms of the father embracing people! People didn't want to leave!!! I love to see God moving in practical ways.
I'll mention one more thing regarding the bible distribution for the islands. Here I saw people who genuinely long for more of God, several illiterate people who decide to go to church to know more about God. One of the churches that we visited counted 150 ish people and sadly when we asked who had got a bible, 3 people only raised their hands. 3 bibles in a church 150 people. When we unpacked the box with the Bibles we brought, their eyes were open wide, eventually they stood up and stretched their arms waiting to grab it. As if you were opening a bag of sweets in front of some children. Walking around the small islands meant to see people sitting in front of their houses, carefully reading their new bible and my heart filled with joy each time I saw such scene!
Going for a mission trip is life changing! You learn to trust God in everything you do and you say. It's challenging in many aspects, that's true, but when you see people accepting Jesus, when people proclaim their spiritual and physical healing and yet, when the presence of God moves to change somebody story, yes, it's so worth of it!
You think you're actually giving and it ends up you receive so much from the people and from God. Looking forward to see growing what has been planted in Uganda, God is on the move!

I was personally impacted by the Catch the Fire mission trip to Malawi as it ignited something within me I hadn’t previously realised was there. It had touched my heart, opened my eyes further and truly lit a flame of compassion that is now everlasting.
The people of Nsanje were so lovely, and to see the gratitude for what little they had really shone a light (both figuratively and literally) on how lucky we are and how much we have. So much so that I am able to write this for you to read.
The Catch the Fire missionary trip to Malawi, in partnership with Watts of Love, changed my life because it gave me the confidence and passion needed to seek the Lord further. If you are ever unsure or put off by other people, remember this: Listen to your heart, and do everything with willingness and passion, for God so loves a cheerful giver.

I was so impacted by the Catch The Fire Trip to Uganda! One testimony from me is, during the session of "the Father Heart" it really touched me to see, how the people really engaged in it, letting go of emotions that were hidden for years or even decades! The Kick-off of healing of heart was absolutely tangible and beautiful!
