 Greetings Friends, as I sit here this morning beside the lake with snow capped mountains in the background, there is a stirring in my soul that I cannot explain. I think of the people who will read this and I think of two songs: "Never Once" by Matt Redman and "One step away from the Lord" by the Schwartz Family, knowing that we all are on a journey thousands of miles apart but only one step away from the Lord and knowing we never walked alone! 


We left Lancaster PA early Thursday and traveled 4000 miles to North Pole, Alaska with lots of conversations and laughter, wild fires, and bears! My team arrived at Victory Bible Camp on Monday afternoon and tore some of the roof off and reshingled about 90 sq ft of roof along with lots of good conversation. It feels great to do physical labour after so many miles of travel! We completed all the work they planned for us in the first week so we are still figuring out the schedule for next week.

Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.
