“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send?
And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!””
our Missions Focus for APRIL 2025
Canadian Bridge of Hope (CBOH) is a charitable, non-profit organization, based in Medicine Hat, AB, Canada
The purpose of CBOH is to support projects in rural parts of South India, in partnership with established Indian aid organizations. Our International Mission Partner is Bridge of Hope, Gotlam, Andhra Pradesh, India. We are humbled by how God is leading us in fulfilling the Great Commission of ministry and mission work. This past year, 2024, was a success in many ways with our mission work with Bridge of Hope . We also had some difficult moments as we coped with the loss of the founder of BOH, Mr. Y. Benjamin. We join hands in thanking God for his life and testimony as thousands of people were directly or indirectly touched by his Love, and passion for Jesus.
Acts 13:47 says ‘’For the Lord gave us this command when he said, ‘I have made you a light to the Gentiles, to bring Salvation to the farthest corners of the earth.’ “

Kent and Brenda Royer grew up on the Prairies and have deep roots in Medicine Hat. Since 1995 they have been serving the Lord in Missions with Wycliffe Bible Translators in various capacities.
Kent serves as the Travel Risk Manager for Wycliffe Canada, advising members through Risk Assessments about the risks of travelling and serving in their country of assignment. Our people are our most precious asset, and having them well informed and trained to handle different security situations in this era of quickly changing risk environments is crucial to their personal safety and decision making. In this role he also represents Wycliffe Canada on the SIL Global Security Risk Management team. He also serves as Response Team member on the International HR team, and is working into the role of Child Safety Officer for Wycliffe Canada.
Brenda is currently serving in two different roles: she is the Insurance Administrator for Wycliffe Canada, ensuring our travelling members have the medical insurance they need, whether for long term service overseas or shorter trips that take them out of Canada. She also serves as Staff Care Advisor, providing support and care to multiple Wycliffe Canada members.
