CMA International
By IVAN Audette
a life changing experience for us as
well as for the Mayans.
Then this February one of our
brothers from Ontario had the privi-
lege to go to Costa Rica on a CMA
Mission trip and was blessed by help-
ing distribute motorcycles. He trav-
elled with an exceptional group of
members from CMA USA and as this
was his first mission trip, he came
back with a glowing report of what
God did for him.
Seeing God work through us,
working together in these mission
trips, ministering together, brings us
into a greater unity with our fellow
brothers and sisters. It gives us an
appreciation for each other and helps
us to look outside of our own back-
yards into the whole world. Jesus told
us to go; to go out into the world and
preach the Gospel (Mark 16:15). As
CMA we are privileged to be called to
the bikers of the world. With over 7.5
billion people in the world, He cares
for each one individually. This gives
us a perspective of how big God is!
Last year, CMA Canada members
reported 188 salvations across our
country, we had 46 new members
join us, and experienced an increase
in Run for the Son participants. We
also faced some opportunities with
our active membership, which needs
to increase. We face many chal-
lenges, but through this we do see
that God is in control, sees our needs,
and meets these needs at every turn.
We are truly blessed to be part of a
life changing ministry and witness
the hand of God at work in our lives.
“And let us not grow weary while
doing good, for in due season we
shall reap if we do not lose heart”

Canada has been
greatly blessed with
the opportunity to participate in
some very fruitful mission trips this
year. It started back in November
where Irene and I were given the
chance to join a CMA team to India,
to be part of a pastors’ conference
and distribute several motorcycles to
well deserving pastors and mission-
aries. It was an awesome experience
to see God at work in His people
across the nations. The lead mission-
ary told us he had been praying to
make contact with CMA members
from Canada, to start a relationship
there; it is humbling to be an answer
to prayer for a fellow brother. We
never know what God has in store for
us when we answer His call.
As a country, we put together a
mission trip to Mexico with Jesus
Film Project®. We distributed two
motorcycles from CMA Canada and
presented the JESUS film to the
Mayan people in three villages. There
were over 350 salvations during
those three days; God’s Holy Spirit
moved upon those villages and it was
