This year's AGM was held on Monday, November 25, 2024, at 8:00pm ET.

The meeting was held online via Zoom in order to increase accessibility and reach a broader audience.

Our Annual General Meeting is a time to review the mission and mandate of Diaconal Ministries and how we work with deacons and churches across Canada.

We spent some time reviewing our Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements from the previous fiscal year, presented our budget for the 2024-25 fiscal year, and also heard from Ms. Anja Attema who shared briefly about her work with diaconates.

A time for questions and open discussion was also given.

Thank you to those who attended! And to you and the rest, we hope to see you next year!

AGM 2024 - Guest Speaker

Does your church offer financial assistance to folks in your church and/or community?

Have you seen the same people coming back for help, time after time and wondered if your help is really helping?

Our newest Diaconal Coach-at-Large, Ms. Anja Attema, is equipped to help deacons and churches navigate these questions (and more!).

With over 30 years of experience in the financial industry, Anja is passionate about helping families and individuals create the best version of their financial story. Anja knows that a full, clear financial story not only includes income, expenses, debts, and spending habits, but also how finances influence relationships, mental health, and one’s outlook on the future.

In this short presentation, Anja shares stories of lives that have been transformed through financial coaching. She highlights some key insights—what to look for and what to avoid—that helps churches and the people they aim to serve be on a better path forward!
