Missionary of the Week
Brad & Cynthia
Things
are going quite well. The extended fall has allowed us to complete some
projects outdoors that we didn't think we would get a chance to do.
Our
fund-raising banquet was this Wednesday and YFC had an over-whelming response,
pray that this turns into financial support as well as meet staffing needs for all YFC outlets.
Our
Winter retreat is coming up in December, this is when we invite the summer
campers to come out for a weekend, our numbers were way down for the fall retreat so pray that it
rebounds for winter.
Please pray that our staff will find
ways to keep themselves busy after work during the winter, there isn't a lot of
extra-curricular around here if you don't
own a snowmobile.
The girls
are loving school here at camp, but the teacher's commitment is only till the
end of this school year. Please pray that we will be able to figure something out for next year.
Thank-you for your continued prayers and we look forward to seeing you all during
the Christmas season.
