Would you like some good news?
HOPECANADA's
OUR COMMUNITIES, OUR COUNTRY, AND EVEN
OUR FAMILIES LIKELY DO NOT NEED MORE NEWS. Blockbuster action
movies, cute kitten youtube videos and social media have bombarded
all of our lives whether intentionally or not we are getting
news.
Wouldnt it be great to be receive good news? News that brings
life, light and healing to our lives and to our hurting world.
This is the kind of news we discover when we realize what God
has done for us through His Son. Jesus initiated the greatest
rescue of all by breaking us free from our prison of selfishness,
anger and pride. HE is the Good News story and He is the reason our
nearly 200 year-round missionaries from across Canada, and
thousands of summer workers and volunteers, are committed to
sharing their lives at one of our ministry points. It is this news
that puts the hope into One Hope Canada.
We have entitled this edition Partners in the Good News. Our
prayer is that you too will see life, light and healing that has
taken place at over 60 ministry points across Canada. God is alive
and at work in His people.
Enjoy reading stories from people of all ages and all walks of
life proclaiming new life they have found in Christ. It is a most
excellent reminder that there is only one thing better than hearing
good news for yourself its being part of a group of people who are
committed to sharing this good news to all who have not yet heard
of His Name.

FIELD DIRECTOR EDITORIALBY ART THIESSEN, CAMP COACH FOR ONE HOPE
CANADA/INTERIM BC FIELD DIRECTOR
In my time as a camp director and now traveling across the
country, I have learned God is our true provider. I am so thankful
for all the people in British Columbia who allow themselves to be
used by God to make the ministry effective.
Here are some ways in which God provides for the camps in
B.C.:
1. Guest groups many groups come and use the camps through the
seasons they are open. This makes a big difference on the financial
bottom line. Also as a result more people come back for summer
camps.
2. Campers Another significant way God provides is by many
parents, grandparents, guardians and others who send their kids to
camp each summer. Many people give funds so under-privileged kids
can come too. Full camps always help us to make the best use of the
ministries.
God is our provider
3. Gifts-in-kind It has been a great blessing to see people give
different things that camps can use. It can be on a permanent
donation of tools or equipment or donations of equipment being
loaned for a period of time rent free. The list is long. You might
think, I cant give money, but I have this item that maybe one of
the camps can use. Give us a call, we will be honest about whether
we can use it and will greatly appreciate your help.
4. Manpower Another significant way in which God provides is
through manpower. Many people use their gifts, talents, their hands
and feet, and their time at camps. People who come and volunteer
their time and expertise helps the camps save money. I believe this
is one of Gods greatest provisions for the camps.
JAMES 1:17 SAYS, EVERY GOOD AND PERFECT GIFT IS FROM ABOVE,
COMING DOWN FROM THE FATHER.
Winter/Spring 2015 | www.onehopecanada.ca4
-
5. Dollars and Cents Many have given to camps financially. This
is always a large need. It was always so much like Christmas when I
would go for the mail and find cheques there. It just made my day.
You can encourage the director by sending a cheque or going on line
to donate. We trust you will continue to choose to stay involved or
get involved with a camp.
In closing, thank you for helping in the past and I trust you
will continue to be involved. I pray that God will give you new
eyes to see how He can use you to help provide for the ministries
in B.C. I trust you will be a positive spokesperson for One Hope
Canada.
Isaiah 45:3 says, I will give you hidden treasures, riches
stored in secret places so that you may know that I am the Lord,
the God of Israel, who summons you by name.
Blessings on you all!
I pray that God will give you new eyes to see how He can use you
to help provide for the ministries in B.C.

March 27-29 Weekend Retreat
July 610 Summer Camp
August 10-14 Summer Camp
October 30 - November 1 Weekend Retreat
I put out a call to arms via my newsletter, and several prayer
warriors offered to be involved, from Boissevain, MB, to Surrey,
BC, and several points in-between! The week before camp, I e-mailed
each participant some names to pray for at camp: the name of a
cabin leader and their campers, the nurse, speaker and director,
and the kitchen staff. Every person at camp that week would be
upheld before the Lord!
One worker, upon hearing that these prayer partners had been
interceding for them, wrote, Now I understand how and why, from the
kitchen workers viewpoint, things went very smoothly. We were
blessed by leaders and campers when we were able to serve suitable
food choices, i.e. gluten-free, diabetic, etc. Each year it is
increasingly difficult as more people with specific food needs are
attending camp. It makes definitely more work for the cooks, but
necessary to keep our campers and leaders healthy. We received such
a blessing from leaders thanking us so much for accommodating their
food issues. I am sure that we were greatly helped because of the
prayers.
In Bill Hybels book, Too Busy Not To Pray, he reminds us that
one of the main reasons that we, as hu-mans, are drawn to God in
prayer is for peace beyond understanding. In Philippians 4:6, Paul
writes, Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by
prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to
God. And the peace of God, which transcends all under-standing,
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
So to all of you who prayed for us, from all of us at camp,
thank you. And Gods peace to you!

Partners inCamp
BY JACQUIE BOLEN, CAMP DIRECTOR
When we say the word camp, we are talking about all the people
who come together in a single week, on-site, to make camp happen.
But what about our partners off-site?
When I attended the personnel conference in Quebec City in 2012,
I heard about an idea of getting people, off-site, to pray for
specific cabin leaders and their campers during their stay at camp.
What an awesome idea!
Every person at camp that week would be upheld before the
Lord!

The TaylorsThe Taylors are a brother-sister quartet from the
heart of North Carolina. Jonathan, Suzanne, Christopher, and Leslie
are dedicated to stirring up the faith of the Christian community,
as well as reaching others with the good news of Jesus Christ
through Gospel music. The Taylors are currently performing around
200 dates a year across the United States, including several
mission-oriented trips abroad. Since their formation in 2006, God
has allowed them to see over 5,000 decisions for Christ.

The Taylor siblings grew up as members of Fellowship Baptist
Church, a small country church, where their father has been a
Southern Baptist minister for over 27 years and their mother the
minister of music. With their mothers guidance, it was around the
church piano that The Taylors learned their four-part family
harmony.
Growing up in a Christian home has reinforced their faith and
values and has created in each of them a strong desire to proclaim
their salvation through the ministry of music. God is at the center
of The Taylors ministry and at the center of their hearts. To Him
be all the glory!
The Taylors will be our Concert Tour Group, touring throughout
Manitoba and Saskatchewan this Spring (April 7 - 19).

ways: First in their activity and then also with God.
We want you to know that there are rules and guidelines to
follow in each of the activities. So to have the most fun, we will
make sure you follow the rules. This is so that everyone will enjoy
their day. So, too, it is with the Bible. It has guidelines for us
to follow to have a great life with Christ. The Bible has so many
good principles to follow which just gives good meaning to each
day.
Skills or activities at camp are the tools for which the kids
come to camp to have fun with. Without fun and activities, camp
would not be where kids would want to go.
So we want to provide activities for the kids to do which will
challenge them, excite them and make their day at camp.
We want parents and kids to know they will be supplied well with
protec-tive gear, so they can go all out. We want them to know they
can go all out in two

In each of the activities, there will be someone in charge. They
will keep things moving and making sure everyone is doing things
correctly. In doing this, they will use tactfulness and love to
share how and why we will work together in these activities. If you
go and fellowship with other believers, they can also help you and
you can help them to stay on track. You can mentor each other from
Gods Word. Then you will live in a way
that you will hear well done, good and faithful servant when you
are called home.
So, finally, to get the most out of each activity at camp, you
need to get involved in the ones you choose to do. To just be a
spectator at the activity, you will not get the full experience. So
go and get involved. You might get a little scrape or bruise, but
those are the memories you will talk about long after camp. Do you
remember when So it
is in our Christian lives. There will be bumps and bruises along
the way, but as we get up and keep moving forward, soon they will
just be a memory of what we have been through. As we look back, we
will say it was well worth it.
So come to camp. Get involved in all the different activities or
skills and have fun to the max. And through it, learn to live your
Christian life to the max.

and wandered, grumbled, and com-plained. We let our wounding
blind us to the help and support God offers in Jesus. The absence
of people has been a bitter gift that revealed our own tendency to
isolate ourselves when we experience pain. We isolate ourselves
from Gods heart, the very place of healing and hope. We cry out for
God to help, to send support. We grumble that were alone, wish-ing
for counsel, while the Counsellor whispers the Way, the Truth,
and
the Life. We have been given the greatest treasure in this life,
the very presence of Jesus. Where does my help come from? The Holy
Spirit has been a faithful and delightful friend, a brilliant
counsellor, a mentor who continues to lovingly correct and align,
and a genius potter committed to remaking me.
This same Spirit, who works so diligently within us, applies
Himself with the same diligence and passion all around us. We see
Him drawing the isolated hearts of campers, volunteers, staff,
students, and neighbours. We see Him setting captives free, leading
wanderers into promise, and healing the brokenness that urges
isolation. We see Him moving beyond Pender, knitting hearts
together, kindling fires, draw-ing hearts into what Hes building
here. The Spirit continues to build connection, to bind hearts
together in prayer, to establish foundations of support, to provide
resources, to build community. This work is the Holy Spirits great
passionto build a glorious Church, to restore Christs lovely Bride,
and to reveal Gods great glory to the world. This has also become
our passion. It always has been, but we hadnt understood it.
Through isolation, weve come to better understand our partners in
sharing the gospelthe Holy Spirit and the Church.

Drawing the isolated hearts
BY DUSTIN HEIGH, MINISTRY DIRECTOR
Living on Pender Island for four years has been a surprising
journey into isolation and partnership. We didnt know much about
Pender when we moved here four years ago; we just knew it was an
island. By its very nature, Pender is isolat-ing. But we didnt
realize that the physical isolation was a significant part of our
calling. The isolation we have been called to is not just the
hardship of living on an island, but a picture of our heart
problem.
Our own hearts have faded in isolation; we have felt the thirst
for fellowship, support, and com-munity. We have been through
seasons of great loss and wounding. Weve focused on the loss and
pain, We see Him moving beyond Pender, knitting hearts together,
kindling fires, drawing hearts into what Hes building here.

CANADAS HOPE SAT DOWN WITH ONE HOPE CANADAS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
TEAM, BILL AND BEV McCASKELL, TO ASK THEM ABOUT THE HIGHLIGHTS OF
LAST YEARS MINISTRY AND WHAT THEIR HOPES ARE FOR 2015.
After being known as the Canadian Sunday School Mission since
1927, this past year marked the introduction of the missions new
name One Hope Canada. What has the reaction been like?
BILL: I think everyone from the National Board to the leadership
team were a little nervous to see how those who have be part of the
mission for years would react. We all know the rich history CSSM
has and we want to build on that richness. It was very encouraging
to hear peoples positive response to the new name and at the same
time letting us know that they still sometimes slip and call it
CSSM. When you have been doing something for 86 years, it takes a
while to change. :)
BEV: We found it really helped to explain to folks the reason
behind the new name. For people to catch the vision, that this new
name could describe the why behind what we do, was really helpful
and is something we can all unite around. There really is only One
hope for our country and it is found in the good news of Jesus
Christ.
What were the other highlights for One Hope Canada in 2014?
BILL: This past year, over 28,000 children and youth from across
Canada heard the gospel and saw it lived out at one of our ministry
points. This is amazing, especially when you realize that close to
16,000 of them come from homes where there is no or very little
Christian influence. And then combine that with fact that over
3,300 life-chang-ing one-on-one conversations took place and that
is just the ones we are aware of it begins to paint an amazing
picture of what God is doing.
BEV: Another highlight for the mission is what God is doing
behind the scenes. This past year marked the coming together of
eight separate offices (seven provincial offices and one national
office) into a unified Ministry Resource Centre. The MRC is a
virtual office comprised of people across the country and has the
single purpose of directing, encouraging and equipping our ministry
points to fulfill the purpose of One Hope Canada. What that means
for our mission is that we can be more efficient in the handling of
finances and administration and have freed up people and resources
to assist our frontline missionaries.

One Hope Canadas Executive Directors

-
Can you give an example?
BILL: Sure. One example would be that before the change, it took
over six full-time people to handle the finance and administration
of the provincial and national offices; today the Ministry Resource
Centre has two and half full-time people working on finance and
administration.
What would be your prayer as you lead One Hope Canada in
2015?
BEV: We continually ask God for wisdom to lead with open hands.
We make our plans, but we trust the LORD to establish our steps.
This would be our continued prayer for 2015. We are asking God to
use One Hope Canada to reach children and youth for His Name sake.
We may have lots of ideas on how we can do this, but what really
matters is that we walk in step with the One whose plans are always
best.
BILL: It is great to have a leadership team from across the
country that is committed to the purpose of the Mission. We lead
together as a team, knowing that discerning the will of God in a
community that is focused on Him is the best way to keep in step
with the Spirit.
One Hope Canada has nearly 200 missionaries serving across
Canada. What is your hope for them in this coming year?
BEV: First off Id just like to say how incredibly blessed Bill
and I are to serve alongside such amazing men and women! My hope
for each of them would be to experience Christ in new ways this
coming year that they would hunger for His Word and that they would
see Him at work in all that they do and that God would receive all
of the glory for great things He is doing!
BILL & BEV McCASKELL live in Winnipeg, MB and have served as
the Executive Director team of One Hope Canada since 2012. They
continue to marvel at Gods leading them to serve together in this
way and they continue to marvel that it can also be fun! :)

warrior that prays, all are partners in
the Gospel, and all are needed.
I think of Jared, who got a call one
Sunday afternoon in July asking
him if he could be out at camp in five hours to serve for the
next two weeks.
Jared came for the next four summers.
I think of Peter, whose goal during
the year was to earn enough money
so he could fix his truck, and pay for gas to drive the two
hours out to
camp each week so he could serve.
I think of Ken, who will do
anything at camp that involves a
Quad and a power saw.
I think of Neil, who had more
projects going on, than time, but
willingly gave of his skills and
resources, and was actively involved
in every major project at camp over
the past ten years.
I think of Peter, a successful
businessman who sees his business
as a means of helping build Gods
Kingdom.
I think of Beth, who could never
see herself working with children,
but was willing to serve in the
kitchen.
And I think of my Dad, who despite being 6,000 miles away,
and in the later years of his life, still
continuing to be actively involved
in ministry through faithfully
praying for us every day.
These are but a few of the
many. Together, we serve as one,
in Him.

Serving as one
BY STEVE DUNCAN, CAMP DIRECTOR
There are a few things I love about
camp ministry. I love seeing kids
lives being touched by the Gospel of
Jesus as they are loved on by our sum-
mer staff. I love seeing our summer
staff grow as they serve and give, and
are challenged to go beyond what
is comfortable. I love the surprise of
seeing seemingly impossible needs
being met whether it is staffing needs or financial needs. And I
love seeing things getting done! When
you see vision becoming a reality,
or a long-awaited project nearing
completion, the heart of a camp
Director gets excited. Through this
tapestry of ministry, there is a thread
that weaves through it all. Whether
it is a volunteer that helps, a cabin
leader who serves, a missionary who
leads, a donor that gives, or a prayer

Cabin Leaders teach, Work Crew serve, Cooks feed the flock,
Speakers feed the flock, Nurses patch up the flock. Program staff
lead the flock, Videographers keep the cameras rolling, Maintenance
staff fix, Woodchucks fill the wood shed each person vital.
I also ask partners to pray earnest-ly that God would open doors
for the Gospel. A record number of campers arrived, each with a God
story how they came to Bible Camp. We praise God for the 61 campers
counseled for salvation and 96 counseled to better know and
represent Jesus Christ.
Thank God for the donors, skilled workers, prayer warriors, and
encouragers behind the scenes. Bible Camp also needs partners who
invest in the care and capital development of facilities and
equipment. Last season, a local
church donated and constructed a beautiful amphitheatre. This
Fall and Winter, it was the Staff Residence expansion and
renovation. 42 skilled volunteers and 6 One Hope Canada
missionaries have already invested a conservatively estimated 3,500
hours.
Our parents have been our biggest cheerleaders investing their
faith, funds and friends. Jodys folks have come from Arizona
(recently California) the last 10 summers to lead food services.
Toms folks have been involved in maintenance, construction and
cooking from before I became director 14 years ago. We thank God
upon every remembrance of them and of each vital partner.

The Harvest FieldBY TOM McINTOSH, CAMP DIRECTOR
What amazing folks who make Bible Camp a relevant,
life-chang-ing experience! They are dedicated and forfeit lifestyle
options to serve and give. And theyre blessed!
It begs the questions: Why dont they take those extra vacations?
Eat out more? Pursue more hobbies? Invest more in financial
security? I suspect one answer would be a great love for God who
calls each of us to seek first the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness (Matthew 6:33).
Each summer is an amazing story of partnership. Every spring, I
ask partners to pray fervently for the Lord of the Harvest to send
workers out into the harvest field. God provided 78 volunteer staff
and 49 work crew to run camp. Bible Camp is ideal to find Gods
unique suitability in each individual.

After a three year career as an elementary school teacher,
Shirley joined the Canadian Sunday School Mission to serve as an
itinerant missionary in her home area. Teaching almost forty
half-hour Bible lessons per week in public schools was a full-time
job, especially considering the miles of travel between rural
schools. Her ministry, located mainly in the Algoma District of
Northern Ontario, east of Sault Ste Marie, once reached 1800
students in her bi-weekly rotation. She often said the Lord called
her from teaching reading, writing and rithmetic to teaching
stories about Jesus. With boundless energy, she added a number of

A tribute to Shirley Stewart
A young person who came into my siblings lives and mine when we
were growing up was Shirley Stewart. She lived a life
of service to her Lord. She had no children of her own, but
countless people continue to rise up and call her blessed. Shirley
was grounded in a solid Bible teaching background from being raised

youth, and adults. One of her key roles was directing CSSMs
Galilean Bible Camp, where many were influenced for the Lord.
During her leadership at Galilean, enrolment went from less than
one hundred summer campers to over seven hundred. In various stages
of her ministry, she also held ladies home Bible studies, helped
create a vibrant youth group on Saturday evenings, and on Sundays
in her early career held two Sunday schools in neighbouring
communities. Summer Bible schools, annual youth rallies, and home
visitation also fitted into her already full schedule.

Aunt Shirley, as she was affectionately called by many campers
at Galilean Bible Camp, had a deep interest in the lives of those
she met. Many look back and value the heart-to-heart conversations
with Aunt Shirley. Her ministry of letter writing and telephone
contacts is treasured by many.
When her ministry of teaching Bible lessons as part of the day
schedule in local schools changed to after-school Bible clubs,
Shirley entered that ministry with enthusiasm. In her later years,
when the Lord supplied other staff to relieve her of a very full
schedule, she became spare teacher for Bible clubs and teacher for
a seniors Bible study group. She focused a great deal of her energy
on ladies and seniors retreats at Galilean Bible Camp.
Shirley was known as a godly lady with tremendous energy, a
pioneer in the CSSM work in our district, a loyal staff person, a
loving servant to many, an encourager, and someone deeply concerned
for the spiritual well-being of people. I am one who will be in
heaven because of Shirleys dedication to spreading the gospel by
many means, so souls might be brought into the kingdom.
It is with sadness but with peace that we announce the passing
of Shirley Stewart
on January 24, 2015.
Shirley was known as a godly lady with tremendous energy, a

Nearly eight years ago, I distinctly remember rolling onto the
camp property for the first time it was my interview with the
board. I was a little nervous as most would be. I mean, these are
the people that I am going to work with in this
ministry. Its not always easy to find a group of people that
have the same passions as you do. Not only that, finding a common
understanding on how things need to be done is a whole different
area that needs to be established. Having worked in
ministry for several years already, I knew that the board could
really make it or break it. I was ready to ask some hard questions
and make sure we were going to be a good fit. Several hours later,
following long meetings and lengthy camp tours, I was driving away
thinking this seems too good to be true! I took the job based on
what I witnessed in that group that day. Not the camp facility, or
the great location, but the heart of ministry that the board had.
The true passion for the Gospel, and the mission Jesus laid out
before us in the Bible.
I was once told by another camp director that it is imperative
to treat your board as a group of allies, not as a bunch of guys
that you need to work around to get what you want done. It seems
obvious when you say it, but it is not often practiced in ministry.
Since hearing those words I have never been able to get them off my
mind while working with my board. I believe that it is the single
most important factor in the strength and growth we have witnessed
in the ministry here at MSBC.
I thank God for each one of my partners on the board and I am so
thankful to have such a great team. When we work together, there is
nothing we cant accomplish!

H ave you ever been at an event where the host invites the
audience to recognize the volunteers who have made the event a
success with the invitation how about a shout out for (fill in the
volunteer name here) for (volunteer position here)? Some volunteers
have been quite public in their organizational role while others
have worked behind the scenes ensuring everything ran smoothly.
If I picture summer camp ministry as an event there are many
different partners who make each season a success. The camp
director may be the official face of the camp, but cabin leaders,
staff, cooks and maintenance personnel each do their part to make
camp a success. If any
partner of the ministry is unable to do their part the load can
become overwhelming or impossible for the remaining partners.
The reality is that each year there is change in many ministry
positions as some staff graduate and begin year-round employment,
some move to others part of the country and others marry or have
growing family commitments that reduce their ability to be
involved.
Stepping back from direct involvement in summer camp ministry
doesnt mean you need to end your participation as a camp ministry
partner. There is still plenty of room to serve as a camp board
member, prayer warrior or a financial supporter. There is always an
opening for these very critical roles in summer camp ministry.

I grew up as a missionary kid (MK) in Moricetown, a native
reserve in Northern BC, where our family were missionaries to the
Wetsuweten people. After becoming a chiropractor and practicing for
ten years, I never dreamed of becoming a missionary. But here I am,
officially a One Hope Canada missionary, typing an article for the
Canadas Hope magazine.
This past August as I was desperately seeking Gods will for our
family (my wife, me, and four daughters), the field director said:
One Hope Canada functions as an arm of the Church. This phrase
resonated in my mind and spirit as I wrestled with God about our
future and His will for our lives. The idea
of serving with One Hope Canada as an arm of the Church excited
me and played a huge role in our finally praying,ANYTHING,
LORD!
Growing up around Christian camping as a missionary kid, I was
keenly aware of the stress of finding volunteers to carry out the
summer camp ministry. Each year it seemed to come down to the
eleventh hour before the camp had enough staff.
I believe that many camps are not connecting with our potential
to bless the Body of Christ by being an arm of the Church. Often,
camps ask churches for volunteers, help, and finances to support
their vision and burden for their camps. I propose flipping this
thinking on its head!
What if we as camps, rather than asking churches for help, began
focusing on the needs of the churches we partner with? Do we know
the visions/missions that churches around us are living by and
aspiring to in His strength? I believe God wants to use camps as an
arm of the local Church, to help her be who God has called her to
be.
At camp, walls come down, helping each one recognize their
special part in the Body of Christ. God has arranged the parts in
the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be (1
Corinthians 12:18). People encounter Him and grow in Him at camp.
If you could listen to the hearts of pastors across this
floundering nation, you would probably hear a deep desire for their
congregations to encounter Christ and grow in Him!
As an arm of the Church, we provide an environment where not
only children and adults encounter Him for the first time, but Gods
sons and daughters this side of heaven grow in their intimacy with
Him, too. Since we are an arm of the Church, we should start asking
ourselves, How can we help the local church journey toward the
vision God has for them?
As an arm of the Church, Christian camping is about far more
than fun, relationship, or even telling children about Jesus. It is
about making CHRIST the center of everything we do!!!

O ur story begins in 2001, when friends invited us to Ness Lake
Bible Camp (NLBC) to help run the water ski program at the camps
Specialty Teen Week. We continued to do this for the next five or
six years.
Our sons, Karl and Kris, joined us that first summer and were a
part of the program and got to know camp a little bit. During the
summers of 2002 and 2003, Kris, our youngest son, joined the camps
summer team as a volunteer. After graduating from high school, Kris
spent various amounts of time working at NLBC in-between other jobs
or during his time off.
We owned and operated our own business, but found it difficult
to take the time that we wanted to volunteer at camp. So in 2007,
we sold the business.
By 2008, both our sons were back living closer to us and, in
fact, Kris was working with his dad in construction. We started the
process of building our own Timber Frame on five acres of property
in Enderby, with Randy and Kris doing most of the work on it
themselves.
next step would be or when it would come about. In obedience, we
put the house up for sale.
Not knowing how quickly it might sell or what we would be doing
next, I started looking online at trailers that we would be able to
live in, if needed. Kris came into my office while I was looking
and after asking about what I was doing, announced that he felt
that we shouldnt be buying a trailer but rather going to camp as he
thought that there was a maintenance position open at NLBC as a
missionary. So we made the very large leap of faith from always
being self-employed to becoming a missionary. Ironically, Karl
would move back to the Okanagan shortly after we had committed
ourselves to NLBC. God knew that He had to move the boys away from
home so that I would have the freedom to be able to move away even
if it wasnt for the long-term.
Finding hope through painBy Randy and Janice McDonald, Capital
Projects Ministry Team
THIS IS THE STORY OF OUR JOURNEY IN FULL-TIME MINISTRY
By 2010, the house was complete and Kris had moved back up north
to operate heavy equipment which was his first passion and at which
he was very gifted (even as a young boy). Much of the work that he
did at NLBC involved him coming in to operate the equipment to
excavate or rework the land. Our older son, Karl, had moved to
Saskatchewan to work on a dairy farm and was telling us that it was
a permanent move. So by that summer, Randy and I were really
wondering why we were spending all of our time and resourc-es on
this big home and yard for just the two of us? We committed to take
a week in August to go camping and really seek the Lord about what
He wanted of us at this point in time. We came home from this week
with both of us being completely convinced that He wanted us to get
rid of the house but not knowing what the
God knew that He had to move the boys away from home so that I
would have the freedom to be able to move away even if it wasnt for
the long-term.

So on November 1, 2010, we moved to Ness Lake Bible Camp for
Randy to take on the position of Facilities Manager. Dur-ing our
four years at NLBC, we learned a lot about many different aspects
of camp ministry. Randy oversaw many different building projects as
well as the regular maintenance needs of camp. A new gym was built
to replace the one lost to a fire, a new water reservoir /
treatment system was put in, and a new timber frame residence was
constructed. I helped out around camp in many different areas as
the need arose. We also came to know and love the larger mission
family of CSSM (now One Hope Canada) and learned how large and how
blessed with resources NLBC really is in comparison to many other
camps.
In September of 2013, construction of the new Gate House (which
was to be our new home) had just really gotten underway when
tragedy struck our family. While Randy was down in Enderby working
on the timber frame for the house, I got word that Kris had passed
away. Then five weeks after that, my father also passed away. The
house project that Kris was supposed to come and help his dad raise
became our therapy to work through our loss and grief. Through many
long hours and the donations of time and materials from many
people, we were able to move into the house on Dec 23, 2013 and
continue to finish it while we lived in it.
We had a dream that as we were ready to retire from a full-time
vocation (maybe in 7 10 years), we would like to have an RV and be
able to go from camp to camp and volunteer. God started to work in
our hearts and also within the mission to move us forward in this
direction sooner rather than later; even though we were still too
young and not financially able to retire. We saw God provide so
much and in so many ways through this really difficult time. He
helped us to come to a real understanding of our son and what was
important to him and worked out
all the details that would move us forward in our new calling.
It was decided that we would resign from NLBC, but remain
missionaries with One Hope Canada. A new ministry would be created
to allow us to keep raising support in order to be able to move
from one camp to the next to provide help or oversight, primarily
for their building projects.
In order to be able to do this, it would mean that we would need
to be able to purchase a 5th wheel that was large enough and well
equipped enough for us to live in year-round and to purchase a
truck that would be able to tow it.
As it turned out, Kris had left a life insurance policy through
his employer that would be used to purchase the 5th wheel. We feel
incredibly blessed and honoured to be able to continue
his legacy of supporting the camping ministry and serving those
we can, to increase their ministry potential with our skills and
abilities.
So at the beginning of November 2014, we rolled out in our truck
and 5th wheel to start in on our new role as a Capital Projects
Ministry Team serving with One Hope Canada. Ministry points can
make applica-tion to have us come and work on their projects. Our
first place of deployment is at Lake Of The Trees Bible Camp where
we are working to complete a 1400 sq. ft. addition to the home of
the director and his family.
It continues to amaze us how faithful our God is and how He can
use the most awful things in life and bring about good out of them
and how He walks through the whole process with us.
He helped us to come to a real understanding of our son and what
was important to him and worked out all the details that would move
us forward in our new calling.

the Evangelical Free Church in Pritchard, the only church in the
community. Without our daughters, we were very grateful for our
son, James, eagerly stepping into the role of running our
technology. But we still needed so much help with the rest of the
program. So God provided some great ministry partnersfour teens and
four adults from the church, and did they step up!
They prepared and led a craft, helping kids build birdhouses.
They led many of our games in the morning and at lunch. The teens
boldly took on parts in skits and puppet shows. What a joy to see
God empower these eager and faithful servants with a passion to
reach the children of their community! God brought out the
children who needed to hear the gospel! At least 90% of them do
not attend church.
What a joy to see local volunteers building relationships with
these boys and girls.
While this week of day camp was going on in Pritchard, we were
praying for Gods supply for the next. We knew that, for our day
camp in Pinantan Lake, we had only one extra volunteer, Norm
Listoen. We wondered how we would be able to pull off what is
usually our largest day camp.
Gods answer came in the form of two teens. They were from the
volunteers at Pritchard. I approached them toward the end of day
camp and asked, Jenna, Daneka, would you be willing to join our
team next week in Pinantan Lake? We are really short on staff.
Both teens willingly and eagerly said yes, partnering with us to
reach their neighboring community. They drove up each day (or
rather their mom and grandma did). They came with a passion for the
children and came already knowing all the parts of skits and puppet
plays. They were clearly Gods provision.
Thanks to Gods provision of amazing and passionate partners in
the gospel, Adventure Day Camps again impacted the hearts and lives
of many kids, children who live in communities and homes with
little chance of hearing the great gospel message of Jesus
Christ.

Oh no, theyre leaving us! The frantic thought kept churning
through my mind. How are we ever going to run the Day Camps without
them?
For over ten years, our three children have served as the core
of our team at Adventure Day Camps in BC. Each year theyve taken on
more and more responsibility. But this past summer it happened. Our
oldest, Sarah, headed off to be a cabin leader at Lake of the Trees
Bible Camp while Melissa, who runs our technology, took a job in
Manitoba. We had come to rely heavily on their gifts on the
team.
But thanks to the prayers of many, we saw God answer. Partners
in the Gospel took on a whole new meaning for us in 2014.

dates...and we all survived! Besides, one never knows when you
may need a great science experiment in the fridge.
However, I had a change in my theology recently when preparing a
quick lunch of Kraft Dinner and discovered there is obvious
discern-ment in knowing when it is time for items to meet their
demise. Things were going well until I opened and poured in the
contents of the cheese packet. The macaroni turned a disgusting
brown colour, followed by an odor a skunk couldnt outdo! Whoa!
Checking the date on the box, I was stunned to see 1998! I
carefully checked the second packet of cheese from the other box
and the color and smell seemed fine. Unfortunately, I discovered
small dried worms as I stirred the contents! Ugh!
Let me assure you we dont serve expired food to guests and I
have recently done a complete cleansing of pantry, freezer and
medicine cabinet. However, time
does have a way of passing quickly, and perhaps it would do us
well to check expiry dates. At funerals we are reminded that we all
have an expiry date and appointment with God. It is appointed unto
man once to die, and after this the judgement (Hebrews 9:27). As we
recognize the brevity of life, we need to take inventory to be sure
we are investing in eternity while we have the opportunity. Trust
me, being unprepared for that appointment will have far greater
implications that a 16-year-old box of macaroni!

Yes, I am my mothers daughter. At times Ive been criticized for

If you keep something in the refrigerator long enough, the
expiration date will even-tually fade and you wont have to worry
about it going bad, or If food is frozen, how can it possibly
spoil? I tended to ignore expiry dates and saw them merely as
suggestions.
I admit I was perhaps unfair and judgmental of those who seemed
paranoid and thought anything a day past the expiry date must be
discarded! Sorry, but I grew up in a large fam-ily where nothing
