Prayers for family & missionaries

GAIN Church Planting Project – West Africa: The Missions Committee is thrilled to announce that a grand total of $25,373.10was raised to assist a team to equip the church leaders in evangelism and follow-up, as well as providing them with food, transportation and resources like mp3 players loaded with commentaries in local languages. These funds will also be used to plant churches in many villages and even build three to four physical churches! GAIN will be providing updates throughout 2025. Thank you for listening to the leading of God to participate in this fundraiser. Many lives will be changed through the Good News of Jesus Christ because of your generosity!

 

Ness Lake Bible Camp

Our annual Polar Bear Dip is just 3 weeks away!! It all takes place on Jan 1st!!

If you are brave enough, then come and take the plunge! Our annual Polar Bear Dip is one way you can help send kids to camp and it's a refreshing and fun way to begin the New Year!

Not sure you want to take the plunge?? Well set a nice lofty goal for your fundraising and then seek out those pledges! If your friends/family/co-workers/besties don't meet that target then you don't dip! 

For example:

Elsa says she will raise money for the Polar Bear Dip and sets a goal of $4,000 - but her friends in Arondale and Anna, Kristoff and Sven (yes, even Sven) donate $3,200 in total. So it's a Win - Win! Lots of kids get to go to camp from the money that is raised, but Elsa (who isn't as fond of the ice as everyone thinks) says nope, we didn't make the $4,000 goal so I'm not dipping!

 

Remember: 

Every child deserves to go to camp and we work hard to make camp accessible for all, but we need your help to make it happen! All money raised from this event will go to the camper sponsorship fund which makes camp possible for children whose families would otherwise not be able to afford to send them. 

Dippers: $35 fee to dip (goes to the camper sponsorship fund)

Spectators: free!

Coffee, hot chocolate and treats for all (by donation).

First 75 dippers registered get a free exclusive t-shirt!

The Salvation Army is running their kettle campaign once again, and are looking for volunteers to staff the kettles and ring the bells, and have asked us to pass along that message to our churches/ministries. If you want more information about what this is all about, please reach out to Terra LaFlamme at the Salvation Army and I'm sure she'd be really happy to hear from you, as we help support the great work that they do all year round!
