2023 Thunder Bay Team - preparation

 Dear Friends,

We are about to embark on our first full team to Thunder Bay, with Northwind Family Ministries (NWFM) since 2014!

We are a diverse team of 34 individuals, from youth to adults with a wide range of skill sets.

We have met monthly since about February to discuss, pray and prepare.  And as much as we can be prepared, we know that we need to be flexible because things change!  God will use us in whatever capacity and we need to be open to going as called. 

26 people fly out Saturday July 8.  4 people are driving, and 4 more flying out Monday July 10.  Please pray for safety in travel.  

Our task: supporting NWFM in running summer camp for youth!  Ages 8-12. First camp since COVID shut things down.  It could be a large group of 40 or small. We don't know! 

If we are full with 40 kids, some of us will be sleeping in tents!  This sounds like a repeat from 2014!  Fortunately we will all be at Eagle's Cove and able to enjoy the beauty of the area.

If you would like to support us in prayer, please follow this blog.  We will update as we go (cell and wifi are poor so we hope to update as much as possible)

We could also use financial support which can be done through Cornerstone Church at https://cornerstonechurch.ca/give and ensure you select "Giving Type - Missions Team, Thunder Bay" so that funds are directed appropriately.

Thank you for your support and follow along!  We leave July 8 and return July 16.

 This is our team!
