The People's Church in Truro, NS

We had the pleasure of being a part of the Wednesday night Bible Study and Prayer Meeting at People's Church last night. When we lived in Truro (1999 - 2003) we worshiped at Peoples, and for three years Liz taught kindergarten (K4) at the Colchester Christian Academy at the church. It was a great pleasure for us to be able to share our excitement in this ministry with our friends there.

The enthusiasm that they showed for the ministry and our beginning in this work was a huge encouragement to us. The missions committee arranged for a collection of kitchen materials for Arrowhead and the congregation responded generously with a big hamper full of wonderful things for the kitchen.

Thank you so very much to the kind folks at People's Church for this wonderful contribution to the ministry here at Arrowhead Native Bible Center.

As you can see in the picture, we also received some generous gifts of pennies for the Penny Rolling Partay this Saturday!

It is this kind of support that helps us to smoothly operate or summer camps and events at Arrowhead. Last summer via the "Grocery Grabber Coupon" program Arrowhead was saved nearly $5,000 in grocery costs. Because we operate below cost for our summer camps this ministry is richly blessed by the practical gifts of local churches.
