Slush or Snow, Winter Camp for Jesus

Hello Jonah followers,

I hope the New Year is continuing to roll on nicely for you all. I hope, also, that you are living your life for Jesus, because if you’re not doing it for Jesus you’re doing it wrong. What grace from God we have that we even exist today let alone have a relationship with Jesus. A friend of mine recently said, “The only thing we deserve is Hell. That should make our lives seem
pretty awesome.”

Everything is rolling along here at Jonah. We just had a group here last weekend for an extended weekend retreat. It was a Ukrainian group from Kent, WA. They brought 40+ from ages 15-22. They were a great group and used there time to have some fellowship and learn from the Word, which is a great thing. They also got to play in the snow and go caving as well as take some rides on snow mobiles.

We are really excited about Jr. High Winter Camp coming up. We get to tell more people about Jesus and His amazing gift and grace, it is a wonderful thing to be able to tell people about Jesus and I hold it as a high honor to be given the opportunity to do so. I would ask that you be praying for all that are planning and executing that we will be pointing to Jesus and never ourselves.

Here are some more prayer requests: Snow mobiles are important, but they are in the shop, the weather looks like rain and then sunshine which equals slush and not good snow,  and we don’t have any inner tubes yet because they were burned/melted in the fire. All of this to say that we may be hard pressed for a snow time, so pray that this problems will be remedied or that God will work through us with inspired creativity so that by bringing fun to the campers we can also bring Jesus to them.

I pray that you are praising God for the grace in your lives and that you are sharing it with others. Thank you for your prayers.

Proud to do Kingdom Work
