Bob Morris

Week 5
July 26 - August 2, 2008

Bob is currently a facilitator for MissionPrep and a Mission Consultant.

Bob Morris has been involved in mission since the day he was born to missionary parents working with SIM in Nigeria. Since 1968 he has been associated with Interserve (Canada) and has spent 18 of those years living in India, Pakistan, and Cyprus. A major part of his role has been the development of strategies for placing Christian professionals in countries where missionaries are not welcome. As well, his responsibilities included member care and assessment, which took him to many countries in Asia and the Middle East.

More recently Bob was associated with the Tyndale Intercultural Ministries (TIM) Centre, which facilitates discussion and activities related to mission in churches, agencies and educational institutions.

Teaching Perspectives and MissionPrep courses and preaching on mission in a variety of churches continues to be a favourite retirement activity. Currently he is a trustee of the Maranatha Foundation, Chair of his church’s Missions Committee and a member of the Transitional International Council of Interserve.

Bob married Carol Small in 1996 after his first wife Petie died of cancer, and he is the father of Christopher and Jonathan, both currently living in BC. Carol has a son, Steve, and a daughter, Shelly, both in Toronto. Bob is a graduate of the University of Western Ontario, Tyndale College & Seminary and is trained as a secondary school teacher in History and English.

Carol and Bob are members of Calvary Church (Associated Gospel Churches) in Toronto.
