The first English settlers came to Canada in 1583. Through the decades, more English settlers arrived. There was a huge influx of English refugees from the newly formed United States in 1783. These were Loyalists who wanted to remain part of the British Empire. They remained favorable to Great Britain, but their influential role in WWII accelerated Canadians identity as a separate nation.
English-speaking ethnic British Canadians are also referred to as Anglo-Canadians. Over time, they often intermingled with other ethnic groups, but those we refer to as Anglo-Canadians retained the English language and English cultural traits. Anglo-Canadians live in 21 countries, including their own. They gravitate to other English-speaking countries, although they also live in 11 European countries including Denmark.
Anglo-Canadians in Denmark tend to be well-educated, especially those in the diaspora. Countries tend to admit foreigners with special skills and a good educational background. They tend to take professional jobs as teachers, IT specialists, and medical professionals. They have formed the Canadians in Denmark network to foster cultural exchanges and business partnerships with the Danes.
Most Anglo-Canadians identify as Christian, and they have a strong Evangelical minority. Like most Westerners, there is a strong drift away from church services. For most, church is a place for weddings and funerals, but not for spiritual transformation or to develop a relationship with Jesus. But there is a strong Bible-believing minority that can and is reaching the world for Christ.
Anglo-Canadians need the Holy Spirit to move powerfully in their families and churches, giving them what they need to remain centered in Christ.
Pray for a powerful work of the Holy Spirit among Anglo-Canadians, drawing them closer to the Lord of lords.
Pray for thousands of Anglo-Canadians to answer God s call to be a light to the nations.
Pray for Anglo-Canadians to disciple many in Denmark.
