Vennture helps make work matter
Monday to Sunday
Do you find your work meaningful? Do you feel like you are able to use your God-given gifts to benefit others and promote flourishing in the world?
As a follower of Jesus, your work matters to God and has eternal Kingdom value. Work is a gift that provides an opportunity to participate in God’s redemptive work in communities and around the world.
Vennture works with churches to become vocationally formed gathering and sending communities that equip followers of Jesus for meaningful participation in God’s redemptive story through their work.
Vennture works with majority world entrepreneurs striving to lift their families towards a hope-filled future, that leads to human flourishing.
Vennture works whether you’re in a pew or a boardroom, a classroom or a clinic, a kitchen or a construction site. Your work matters!
HOW WE WORK
Vennture works in two core areas:
Formation
| LEARNING |
Through Vennture’s network of partners, we provide learning opportunities for people to be spiritually formed through a biblical theology of work & vocation. Through teaching a biblical theology of work & vocation that seeks to close the sacred | secular divide, pastors and leaders are discovering the potential of followers of Jesus living a seamless life where faith meets work.
Creation
| BUILDING |
Throught Vennture’s network or partners, and in a spirit of mutuality, we work with groups to create transformational businesses. In the same way, we work with redemptive entrepreneurs in the majority world who are lifting their families toward a hope-filled future that leads to flourishing by providing people with meaningful work that brings glorify to God.
Our Team
Support
Majority World Entrepreneurs
Whether here in Canada or somewhere around the world, operating a small business is not easy and there are many challenges to overcome. In the Majority World, one challenge many aspiring entrepreneurs must overcome is a lack of access to financial capital to enable them to start or grow a business.
Supporting entrepreneurs to create redemptive and transformational businesses that alleviate poverty by creating lasting and meaningful jobs and have a positive community impact is one of Vennture’s primary goals.
With our partner, Flourish Financial, we are pleased to be able to provide greater access to equitable credit and loans to Majority World entrepreneurs.

When faith meets work all the hours of our lives can be infused with meaning!
At Vennture, we help people find meaningful participation in God’s redemptive story through their daily work – whether in a co-op in El Salvador or on a job site in New Brunswick. We believe work is more than compensation; it’s contribution. It’s an act of worship and a way to join in God’s renewing mission locally and globally.![]()

Over the past year, we’ve been exploring what the intersection of faith and work might sound like in the context of worship. That led to a series of writing retreats with songwriters and worship leaders from Canada’s East Coast. The invitation was to grapple with what it could look like to create songs for the singing church that reflect how our work – whatever and wherever it is – has Kingdom value.![]()
![]()
What’s emerged is @common.place.worship – a community of people committed to sharing a gift with the broader church. Songs for streets and sanctuaries alike, born out of the everyday yet rooted in eternity. Songs that echo the experiences of workers here in Canada and around the world, where Vennture and CBM come alongside business leaders and churches in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.![]()

Today we’re anticipating the release of the first of these songs. “Together for Good” by @common.place.worship arrives on July 25, 2025, on all streaming services, and we can’t wait for you and your church to sing it with us.![]()

More songs will be coming over the summer, and the full album’s release is slated for Fall 2025.![]()
