With a federal election now called for April 28, this is a key time to ask about the future of Christian charities in Canada. The outcome of this election could determine whether a recent parliamentary committee recommendation—threatening the charitable status of Christian ministries—moves forward.

In December 2024, the finance committee made a recommendation that, if adopted, would put Christian charities like Crossroads at risk of losing charitable status. It stated:

Amend the Income Tax Act to provide a definition of charity which would remove the privileged status of “advancement of religion” as a charitable purpose (#430).

More than 30,000 charities—about 42% of Canada’s charitable sector—fall under the “advancement of religion.” While not all are Christian, this change would directly impact Christian ministries like Crossroads, which share the hope of Jesus across Canada.

If adopted, millions of Canadians who rely on Christian organizations for spiritual care, prayer support, and vital community services like food banks could be affected.

Now is the time to speak up, stand on guard, and pray for our nation.
