Christian Heritage Month Foundation is a registered nonprofit organization in Canada, established in 2019. Under the leadership of the Foundation along with many Christian churches and their leaders, played a pivotal role in the official recognition of December- Christian Heritage Month. On November 20, 2019, the Brampton City Council voted unanimously to designate December as Christian Heritage Month annually. This landmark decision, first in Canada acknowledges the significant spiritual and cultural contributions of Christianity to our communities and to the nation. Building on this milestone, the Foundation also led efforts that resulted in the Peel District School Board trustees formally recognizing December as Christian Heritage Month in January 2020.

Ephesians 3: 10 New International Version  His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms.

"God’s purpose in all this was to use the church to display his wisdom in its rich variety to all the unseen rulers and authorities in the heavenly places".New Living Translation. 

Christian Heritage Month is a collective effort made possible through the unity of churches across Brampton and other cities across Canada.

The celebration for Christian Heritage Month kicks off with a Flag Raising Ceremony at Brampton City Hall  usually on the first Sunday of every December, from 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM. This event features participation from all churches and the Mayor and City Councillors.
