A group of South East Asia students with the help of Pastor Dan Connor and wife Darlene, helped fostered and lead a evangelistic ministry on the campus of University of Windsor in 1979 to 1986. There was a need to bring the good news of the saving grace of Jesus Christ during the influx of foreign students during this period. One could not go anyway without feeling the presence of a Chinese community.The students were from numerous countries such as Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Hong Kong and India. The group would initially meet in a room above the University Student Lounge and eventually moved to a room at Vanier Hall on Friday's night.

Pastor Dan and Darlene would open their home on Caroline Street and the small house could barely contain the students. Dan later remarked " I was praying hard that the stairwells would not collapse as all the students were seating on the steps during one of the worship session"

CBF would organize guest speakers and have movie nights, outings and events. Formative and zealous love for the Lord Jesus became the main focus for both old and new growing Christians.
