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.

Aches and Praise Four Hundred & Eighty One
For the past ten years, Karen and I have had the joy of travelling to Connecticut for American Thanksgiving, first to visit our daughter Candace’s boyfriend’s family, and for the past three years to visit Candace and Richie, and see his family and friends. This year we were able to see them on our cell phone and are thankful for this technology. To all our American friends we wish you a blessed Thanksgiving.
As we look ahead to celebrating the birth of Christ in a few weeks, our thoughts turn to the story of the shepherds watching their flocks in the fields around Bethlehem. What an amazing night it was when “an angel of the Lord stood before them and the glory of the Lord shone around them” (Luke 2:8-9). In the December 2020 issue of “Turning Points” magazine, Dr. David Jeremiah shares some interesting information about a famous Christmas novel and a popular Christmas song. In “A Christmas Carol,” Charles Dickens put the comma after “you” instead of after “merry” and he changed “God rest” to “God bless” in the song that the carolers sang: “God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen.”
Dr. Jeremiah observes: “No one knows who wrote the lyrics originally – it was a traditional song from the 1500s. In that era, ‘God rest you merry, gentlemen’ meant something different than we might imagine today. It didn’t mean, ‘God give you merry gentlemen rest!’ It meant, ‘Gentlemen: May God keep you happy and content!’ That certainly complements the next lines: ‘Let nothing you dismay, for Jesus Christ our Savior was born upon this Day.’… The 1775 version of the carol had a verse (rarely included in today’s versions) that mentioned the Bethlehem shepherds:
May we consider the lyrics of the Christmas carols that we sing in the coming weeks and adore the One who left the splendour of Heaven to come to Earth to save us from our sin.
Scripture for the weekend: “Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them.” Luke 2:20 (NKJV)
