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

Aches and Praise Five Hundred & Thirteen
July 9, 2021Dear friends,
Brother Sheldon continues: “On the morning of the second day, He saw a fig tree with abundant leaves. The fig trees on the journey were mostly of the common kind and at this season had no leaves. But there was a less usual fig tree, called ‘Benoth Shuach’ which never lacked leaves and never lacked fruit. It bore fruit every year, but ripened only every third year, so that on a tree there might be three sorts of fruit, namely that of the present year, of the past year, and of the year before that… The abundance of leaves that suggested fruit was a picture of Israel at that time. It had all the appearance of fulfilling the purposes of God, but no fruit. The Messiah had tended the fig tree of Israel for three years, but it remained obdurately barren.”
The Lord Jesus said “Let no fruit grow on you ever again” when He observed no fruit on this fig tree (Matt. 21:19). In his Study Bible, Dr. David Jeremiah comments on the cursed tree: “Many people have trouble with this incident because they think it depicts an ill-tempered or unreasonable Jesus. But the key is its placement: right before the narrative of the temple cleansing, and right after Jesus’ brief viewing of the temple. We may consider it an ‘acted-out parable.’
Brother Jeremiah observes: “The tree, which is in full leaf but has no figs, supplies a picture of Israel at that time in general and the temple in particular: there was life but no fruit. People came to the temple hungry for God but found no help to connect with Him. Jesus cursed the tree for its fruitlessness in the same way God would judge the temple and the nation of Israel for its spiritual fruitlessness only a few decades later.”
As we look at how the nation of Israel has transformed desert areas into lush farmland and built bustling cities and factories that produce many helpful goods, we can’t help but marvel at its ingenuity and intelligence. However, there remains the most glaring need for the Jewish people: to recognize Jesus as their Messiah. Of course, the people of Israel are not alone in their unbelief. May we who know Christ share the Good News of His death, burial, and resurrection, which made the forgiveness of our sins possible, with family, friends, and others.
Scripture for the weekend: “Let all that you do be done with love.” 1 Corinthians 16:14 (NKJV)
Thought for the weekend: “When we love God, we are known by Him and can experience both salvation and the joy of spiritual transformation as a result of this magnificent relationship. How wonderful that our great and sovereign Creator pursues us, sees us, and wants to know us!” – Steve Conover (from his blog post at: https://www.foi.org/2021/06/04/known-by-god-a-key-to-spiritual-transformation/)
