La Voix de l’Évangile, Québec is a vital part of the extensive radio work of MissionGO
which reaches into many French-speaking countries of the world. The broadcasts are recorded in the studio of the radio follow-up office in Châteauguay.
The ministry began in 1955 in the Back to the Bible Broadcast studios in Lincoln, Nebraska through a staff member who spoke French fluently and had a burden for the French-speaking people of the world. An office was soon established in Aix-en-Provence in France.
In 1974, an office was opened in Châteauguay, Québec, under the direction of MissionGO representatives, Clarence and Pearl Shelly. At the present time, the broadcasts are aired on one station in Montreal and one in Champlain, NY. Stephen Frank became the director of La Voix de l’Évangile, Québec in 2006. His wife, Karen, is also a representative of MissionGO.
The weekly French-language 15-minute broadcast features Pastor Michel Martel, a Québec evangelist who faithfully teaches the Word of God. Audio messages (in French only) are available on CDs at a reasonable cost as well as approximately 40 books in French on the Christian life.
Action Mondiale d’Évangélisation (Québec) Inc is the name of the Québec incorporation of MissionGO

Dear friends,
Yesterday was Thanksgiving Day in the United States. Karen and I had the privilege to be with family and friends, celebrating God’s many blessings, including two granddaughters in Connecticut. It is wonderful to see these girls grow!
|In “The Woman’s Study Bible” there is the following look at gratitude entitled “A Thankful Spirit”: “Gratitude begins by acknowledging who God is and what he has done. This heartfelt emotion is not dependent on the response of another person or on the nature of what is received as a gift. Ingratitude, on the other hand, begins with a heart that refuses to be satisfied, that rejects the Giver as well as his gift (Romans 1:21).
Life itself is a gracious gift from God. There is no gratitude except what is built on this foundation. A spirit of gratitude must be cultivated, then passed on to others, especially to those in your own household, by example. These are some ways to accomplish this:
- Remember that a grateful person is humble and focused on God, while the ungrateful heart is full of pride and focused on self. Ruth beautifully emulated such a spirit of gratitude and humility (Ruth 2:10). She responded graciously even to the smallest kindness.
- Do not take for granted the small and ordinary daily blessings (Matthew 6:11).
- Look for blessings from God, being careful not to overlook the hidden, subtle, indirect gifts from God (Colossians 4:2). Recognize that not every gift you desire may be beneficial to you. God is the all-wise Giver. Consider his plan and priorities for your life, being careful not to lose sight of the big picture because of a tragic but small interruption.
- Remember to thank God even in the midst of adversity and trials (Hab. 3:17-19; 1 Cor. 10:31; Philippians 1:3; 2:14; 1 Thess. 5:18).
- Gratitude to God and others should be expressed not only regularly but also publicly (Ps. 35:18; John 11:41-42). Family members and close friends should not be taken for granted.
- Record your blessings and keep a record of God’s faithfulness to you.
- Complete the cycle of gratitude by reaching out to give to others in the Spirit of Christ (2 Cor. 9:12).
May we shine the light of God’s Word and live in the power of the Holy Spirit so that many will see His glory.
Scripture for the weekend: “Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.” Psalm 96:3 (NIV)
