Once upon a time, a little lightning bug was stuck inside a mason jar, just blinking away. He was completely focused on being the brightest and getting everyone to notice him...until now. The jar was opened, and the little bug is flying away. Every bug seems to be flying toward a bright light near a porch. The light is making a buzz. Instead, our little friend is going big: he's flying for the moon.

Country of the Day: Canada
Today's country is a more familiar one for my American readers: Canada. Canada is vastly different from the African and Asian countries I've profiled the last few days.
Canada is around 70% Christian, in a nation of 33,759,742. That's a lot of believers! However, we cannot overlook the non-Christians of Canada. Around 2% are Muslim, but the big thing is the amount of non-religious people. This is the first time we have seen this in a Country of the Day nation. About 16% of Canada is not religious, and this is a lot of people.
Join with me in prayer for the lost people of Canada, as those are the people that need our prayers most of all. But let's not forget the 70% of Canada that professes to know Jesus. Let's pray that Canada's Christians join together, feel a desire to spread the Word, and express the love of Christ.
