Prayer Requests- 

As always, prayers have been answered and continued prayers are needed!

• Please pray for a "Joshua" to carry on the ministry along with full-time and part-time staff to help with the various projects, maintaining, and running the camp. 
• Please pray that we can find and purchase a vehicle to haul our dump trailer and transport people, rebuild or purchase new tractors and backhoes, and a generator that can run the well pump, dining hall, and, hopefully, other buildings. 
• Please pray that our plans are approved and that we are given permits for our straw bale staff housing, workshop, and museum.
• Please also pray for the continued good health of Dennis and Darlene Delano (camp directors) and Pastor Gary's (Nespelem     church) health. 
• Please pray for a revival in the community and local churches to know the Lord and be active in serving Him!
