Meegwetch! (Thank you!)


Though our week in Big Trout Lake is over, hopefully we can continue to send updates on this blog about the team and the people in Kitchenuhmaykoosib. For now, though, we want to say "thank you!" to the many people we met in Big Trout Lake last week. Thank you for bringing your children to Bible School; thank you for taking the time to spend a few minutes with us, updating us on your lives and your community. Thank you for the love you've shown us--it greatly strengthens our faith! Thank you for your kindness and your gifts, and for treating us as family and not outsiders. Thank you for the blessing you are to us. We love you all! Here are a few words that I (Jeanne) penned during the early worship service at St. Peter's on Sunday morning. I believe they are from the Father's heart:

"Oh faithful ones. You love the Lord and are loved by Him. Your love and your deeds have not been unseen by Me (says the Lord). You have many burdens, but I know them all. I have not left you, nor will I ever leave you or forsake you."

We will continue to pray for you and the community. God loves you all dearly and so do we!
Jeanne, Mike, Kari, Jaeger, Roxie, Clarissa, Bruce and Ruthann, and Stuart
