"God created man in his own image,

in the image of God he created him."

Genesis 1:27


Dear friends,

Imago Dei is an initiative of the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform (CCBR) working to mobilize Christians to defend life in the womb and to offer hope and healing to post-abortive men and women. We offer presentations, workshops, outreach opportunities, and various resources to inform and equip the Church to fulfill these responsibilities to our pre-born neighbours and wounded culture.

'Imago Dei' is a theological term meaning 'image of God'. Abortion is wrong first and foremost because it ends the life of a human being who bears the image of Almighty God. As ambassadors for the Creator of life, we have the privilege and responsibility to defend the lives of God's tiniest image-bearers, of whom nearly 300 are killed every day in Canada.

I would like to invite you to join us in answering the call to rescue the innocent from death (Proverbs 24:11), to care for orphans and widows (James 1:27), and to expose evil (Ephesians 5:11).

If you want to have conversations like this, click the button below and we will connect you with your local group for training and outreach!



"Miranda equipped our young adults' group to respond to the masked evil of abortion in Canada in a biblically-informed, persuasive, and gentle way. More than ever, Christians need to give not only their passive solidarity but their active participation in order to save the lives of children. I heartily recommend that any youth group, small group, or Sunday school book a presentation from CCBR." -Mark, Youth Pastor at Forward Baptist, Toronto


One of the key ways we equip Christians to respond to abortion is through informative presentations and interactive workshops. We'd love to come and speak for your church, school, or community, so please reach out for more information!




Toronto Pro-Life Bootcamp

February 22-25

Calling all postsecondary students! Join us during your reading week to put your pro-life convictions into action! It'll be a great time of apologetics training, street outreach, and fellowship with other pro-life young people.

Pro-Life Week of Action March 14-17 A life-changing, life-saving experience for highschoolers during March Break! Improve your pro-life conversational skills and gain real life experience doing street outreach, changing hearts and minds on abortion.




1. Did you know? Pastors attend all events free! We believe it is essential for church leaders to be equipped to respond to abortion, and we never want cost to be a barrier.

A good opportunity to take advantage of this would be to join us on the first day of the Bootcamp (Feb 22) or the Pro-Life Week of Action (Mar 14) for the training days. Let me know if you'd like to come!

2. I also have a request for you: we have posters and brochures that we'd love to mail to your church so that your congregation knows about our upcoming training and outreach opportunities. Please send me your church's address if you can help us out in this way!

3. If you'd like to know more about CCBR before inviting us to speak at your church or promoting our events, I'd love to meet with you and share more about our work.
