Tweakage 9

My friend Andrew Henderson is the director of Windcrest Bible Camp here in NB. He has ben asking me for a number of years to join him and travel to the Tweakage conference in the US. This year it worked out that I was able to go, and am I ever glad that I did. Kyle and I enjoyed a great time of fellowship with Andy on the road trip - that alone was an excellent part of the conference experience.

Tweakage itself is, without question, the best camp conference I've had the opportunity to take part in. There were 250 people representing over 50 camps from 4 countries in attendance. The conference took place at  High Point Camp near Reading, Pennsylvania. There were seminars covering many of the important aspects of camp ministry. Covering policies, maintenance, program, fun, discipleship, church submission and family; the conference offered sound input from people on the ground. I valued the conversations I was able to engage in and the free sharing of ideas and resources. The benefit to Arrowhead and to me personally is immeasurable. I hope to be able to attend this conference for years to come. And look out for some groovy new ideas that we brought home from Tweakage.

Had an exciting drive down, 16 hours one way, accidentally stuck to the i95, got to see NYC. 

had to hit up Cracker Barrel 

And of course, if you're near the worlds largest Cabela's you check it out. Pretty amazing statue out front.  

High Point Camp has an amazing coffee shop. 

High Point Camp has a beautiful property.  

Enjoyed the messages shared.  

Anyone who can weld, we'd love to have an arm wrestling table just like this. This one was fabricated from an old bed frame. 

Parkers Cove Baptist Church

We have been blessed to be able to take part in the Parkers Cove Baptist Church Mission Conference. It was an even greater blessing to be able to be present there with the Hubick family as they shared of their ministry as well. It was a blessing to share about our ministry and open the Word with folks on Sunday morning.

The Hubicks ministered in song! 

Kyle shared about his internship with us at Arrowhead.

Calvary Baptist Church Missions Fellowship

One of the aspects of our ministry is connecting with and giving ministry updates to Church and mission groups. We do so on behalf of Arrowhead as well as ourselves. It is always a blessing to be with the folks at Calvary Baptist Church in Miramichi. This particular visit Kyle had an opportunity to share about the ministry he is involved in at Arrowhead as well.

An Intern at Arrowhead

We are very pleased to announce that Kyle Hubick has been accepted as a one year intern at Arrowhead Native Bible Center. Kyle will work with me (Grant) directly and be involved in every area of our ministry; administration, maintenance, planning, facilitating and operating our summer camp programs, conferences and social media. In addition to being exposed to all of the administration and function of the ministries at Arrowhead he will be assigned a number of books and a cross-cultural communications course as a part of his internship. Kyle will also be responsible to assist with a kids club and teen discipleship program at St. Mary's First Nation.

We are so excited to have Kyle moving here to work with us for this year. We would ask that you pray for Kyle as he prepares to come and after he arrives. Kyle will be living in "The Nest" cabin right here at Arrowhead, but he will need to raise $1200 a month of support to cover his expenses (ministry travel, accommodations, food etc.). Would you consider committing to support Kyle for a year as he serves at Arrowhead? Will you pray for the ministries here at Arrowhead and for Kyle as he interns?
