A judge rejected a proposed $170 million class-action lawsuit against one of the world’s largest Christian ministries over alleged misappropriation of funds more than three years after the charity paid $37 million to settle a similar class-action lawsuit in the United States.

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice dismissed a motion to certify a lawsuit against Gospel for Asia (GFA World) Canada and a number of its current and former officers and directors.

Plaintiff Greg Zentner of Nova Scotia filed the motion in June 2021, alleging that Gospel for Asia (GFA) defrauded thousands of Canadians and churches “who collectively donated millions to GFA Canada by diverting those funds to improper purposes.”

The motion to certify a class action was denied on March 17 by Justice Peter J. Cavenaugh. Gospel for Asia (GFA) announced the dismissal in a press statement earlier this month.

The judge found the plaintiff “failed to show some basis in fact for his allegation that the defendants intentionally misappropriated donor funds in a manner that had no connection to any purported charitable purpose.”
