A story is told of a man who loved old books.

He met an acquaintance who had just thrown

away a Bible that had been stored in the attic of

his ancestral home for generations. I couldnt read

it, the friend explained. Somebody named Guten-

something had printed it.

Not Gutenberg! the book lover exclaimed in horror.

That Bible was one of the rst books ever printed.

Why, a copy just sold for over two million dollars!

His friend was unimpressed. Mine wouldnt have

brought a dollar. Some fellow named Martin Luther

had scribbled all over it in German.

I do not know if this ever happened, but it makes

a good point. Sometimes people do not really know

what they have, and fail to take the full advantage of

it. Sometimes, we suffer great loss, because we do not

know, or accept the value of something we have.

In the pages that follow, you will be witness to

the reality that we at One Hope Canada have been

given a priceless gem that the Lord Jesus Christ has

commanded us to share with those who have the

least opportunity to hear of Him. For over 85 years

our mission, known as Canadian Sunday School

Mission, and more frequently by the initials CSSM

Ministries, has shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ

with children, youth and adults. Over those 85 years

our methodologies have changed but our passion

for sharing the Good News of Jesus has not. It is this

passion of sharing the Gospel of Jesus that unites us

as a mission, and it is our burden for our great country

that compels us to go and make disciples of all nations.The grace of our Lord God as revealed through

Jesus Christ and His redemptive power is denitely a

pearl of great price and we want to share with you

how God is at work here in Manitoba and throughout

Canada.

May you be blessed and encouraged as these stories

of changed lives reveal the awesomeness of Gods

unfailing love.

A living hope

HOPECANADA's

I am amazed at how the

tiniest words can hold such deep

meaning. Words like hate and

love, each spelled with only four

letters, still somehow manage

to burst with emotion and carry

such strong connotations.

Another little word Im thinking of,

is so full of meaning that God actually

uses it to describe the incredible

gift He has given us. This four-letterword continually stirs the hearts of

those around me, and nds its place

in the centre of Gods good news:

In Gods great mercy he has given

us new birth into a living hope

through the resurrection of Jesus

Christ from the dead, and into an

inheritance that can never perish,

spoil or fade. (I Peter 1:3,4 NIV)

Executive Directorsmessage

Feature Stories Regulars

The hope we have as Christians

is not based upon wishful

thinking, folklore or some mental

exercise. This hope, this living,

breathing, one hope, is anchored

in the historical event of the

perfect life, the unjust death,

and the resurrection of Jesus of

Nazareth. It is grounded in the

truth that Jesus Christ lived a life

we could never live, died in a waythat we deserved, and defeated

our greatest enemy - death.

This hope is the only hope that

will not disappoint. It is the only

hope that will last. It is the hope

that our country needs and that

this next generation is seeking.

Privileged to share in

Canadas hope.

NewName,Same Mission.just in one area or with one group - Gods

Spirit was moving across the country,

stirring the hearts of his people from coast

to coast with a desire to do whatever it

takes to share the gospel with children

and youth. And God blessed their efforts -

churches were planted, camps sprang up,

tens of thousands of children, youth and

their families heard about the hope that is

found only in Jesus Christ.

BEV:And it is that passion and that desirethat we are asking God to rekindle. We

want to be a mission that has a passion for

the gospel and a burden for our country.

CH: What made you choosethe name One Hope Canada?BEV:At our last country-wide personnelconference in the fall of 2012, we had our

entire mission family meet in small groups

to describe the what, how, and why

of their various ministries. The thing we

discovered was that because we are such

a diverse ministry, every ministry point

had a different what and a different

how, but the one that united every

ministry point, and every missionary, wasthe why. They did what they did, the

way they did it, so that children, youth and

their families would come to know Jesus

Christ.

BILL:And so for us the name, One HopeCanada, describes that why. The One

Hope of course is Jesus Christ, and we

like the fact that Canada is in the name,

because it reflects with whom and where

we will share this great news.

Canadas Hopesat down with ExecutiveDirectors, Bill and Bev McCaskell, to ask themabout changes happening at the mission.

CH: The mission has been known as theCanadian Sunday School Mission since1927, why change the name now?BILL:The mission has such a rich history ofseeing God use it to reach generation after

generation of Canadians with the gospel, and

because of that, people have fond memories of

the mission. Many of them found God at one of

our ministry points (a camp or church). In fact,

I am one of them - God got a hold of my life at

Kenosee Lake Bible Camp in Saskatchewan.

What we are discovering though, is that

those under 40 or so do not know CSSM Min-

istries. They may know of one of our camps,

but they do not know of the mission behind

the camp. And so the National Board has been

wanting to reintroduce the mission to a new

generation for a number of years, but it didnt

seem like the right time until just recently.

CH: What made this the right time?BEV:God is moving within the mission andstirring hearts. Its like there is a renewal that

is taking place and is going much deeper thanany name change. In many ways, we are

going back to the very root of the mission -

the original vision and burden that has inspired

CSSM Ministries for so many years - to share

the love of Jesus and to make His name known.

CH: Tell us a little bit moreabout that original vision.BILL:CSSM Ministries started because Godopened the eyes of men and women to the

need in Canada for the gospel. And it wasnt

CH: Some people may say that Canadaisnt a mission field anymore and amission in Canada is outdated.BILL:It doesnt take much effort to look around atour communities to see the brokenness that exists

- it really is everywhere. This past summer we had

almost 18,000 children and youth participate in one

of our weeklong camp programs and almost half of

those came from homes who do not know Jesus.

That is why we get so excited about camp ministry.

Where else can you go in Canada, and find thou-

sands of children and youth who have no idea who

Jesus is, spending an entire week learning about

Him? Its amazing and humbling.

CH: What response have you had to the new name?

BILL:It has been really positive. I shouldnt besurprised, but I have to admit I am a bit, since our

first name has been around for 87 years, and I know

people have such great memories of it. But the re-

sponse we have received from comments and notes

sent into our office has been encouraging. I believe

people see the reasons and the heart behind the

decision. Even those folks who have some questions

about why we are changing, become supportive

after we have explained why, and share that we are

committed to the original vision of the mission. They

want to see the torch they have carried for so long

and so well, passed on to the next generation.

CH: What one thing would you like our readersto remember about the missions new name?BEV:That it actually isnt about a name change(laughter). It reallyisnt. It is about what God is

doing again in the hearts of those who are involved

in a mission that is 87 years old. There is newness

of life, there is a passion, there is a burden. Thats

what is important to remember. God has given us a

few words to remind ourselves of all it comes down

to: Be faithful to the gospel, and He will make His

NAME known. CSSM Ministries - now One Hope

Canada - has never been about building its own

name, but rather about proclaiming His name.

Thats what I would like people to remember.

Having hosted the radio program Heart of the South for the

last 13 years, its not at all unusual to hear of membership

changes within the Gospel groups. But my ears really perked

up when I was chatting with Ace Taito, Music Director of Keepers of the

Faith, a year or two ago. Ace mentioned that they were looking for a

new bass singer. So, I innocently asked the logical question, Why did

their former bass singer leave?

I expected the usual response; He left to spend more time with

his family. Thats the story heard most often when group members

leave (Ironically, they often resurface two weeks later, now singing for

a different group). But no, that wasnt why he left. It wasnt for health

reasons or to go into the pastorate (another two commonly heard

reasons for leaving). No, hed left singing with Keepers of the Faith in

order to go into wrestling! No, Im not making that up! Sometimes reality

is more humorous than fiction! (By the way, were excited Keepers of

the Faith found a new bass singer and he is a Canadian! Gary van Ry

comes from Abbotsford, BC!)

HOW THE GROUP BEGANAfter being in many different singing groups, a father and three sons

decided in 1997 to establish a singing ministry known as The Taito

Family. They began their journey in singing and ministering together as

a family. As the years went by, they felt the calling of God to move from

Hawaii to Washington State, where theyre continuing to minister as afamily singing group till this day.

In the year 2003 the group was formed with acappella singing as its

foundation. With a Samoan heritage, the group was made up of 15 men.

As the years went on, many of the members made different choices and

went their separate ways. This only left 5 members: 3 brothers and 2

cousins, and thus Keepers of the Faith quartet was born.

Our goal as a ministry is to make sure what we do and say has

changed our hearts first. We pray that people will see Jesus through

us. Whether there be more or less, we will minister no matter what. We

make sure we give everything we have because we believe God expects

the best from us. We are not just any typical quartet which just does

concerts. We have been part of many evangelistic meetings and have

had the privilege as a ministry to preach His word and baptize over 100

souls and more. It is our prayer as we continue to witness and minister

the Gospel of Jesus Christ through music and testimonies, that many

may come to know and experience the wonderful and great love of God

in a special and inspiring way. To God be the Glory forever, Amen!

KEEPERS OF THE FAITHwill be our Concert Tour Group, touring

throughout Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta this Spring

(March 28 - April 13).

A MINISTRY IS

TO MAKE SURE

WHAT WE DO

AND SAY HAS

CHANGED OUR

HEARTS FIRST.

The Bible that CBS is putting

together will be unique to

campers and camp ministry.

The additional reflection

pieces will address the issues

that children face after

leaving the safe environment

of camp. There will also be

Bible reading plans to help

keep campers accountable

to reading their Bible and togive some direction when they

dont know where to start.

Our ministry points have all

been given the opportunity to

order as many Bibles as they

need for this upcoming season.

To partner with CBS in this

way and provide Bibles to our

campers is a huge blessing and

just another way that God is

moving through our nation. CBSis looking for stories, pictures

or videos of how lives are being

changed and transformed as

children and youth encounter

God. One Hope Canada desires

to bring the Gospel to those

with the least opportunity

to hear, but it doesnt stop

there, we also want to disciple

believers for living and serving

through His church. What better

place to start discipling than

by providing the living word of

God to those who are longing to

know Him more?

This brand new resource

for CBS is still in production,

please keep praying for this

project and the impact it will

have on the lives of children

and youth across Canada.

BY JUANITA NEUFELD, RESOURCE TEAM LEADER

CANADIAN BIBLE SOCIETY

In the fall of 2013, we were

approached by Canadian Bible

Society (CBS) about providing

a unique Camping Bible to

our ministry points. In the past, our

ministry points have purchased

Bibles to give to campers who were

in need of a Bible, or who had made

a commitment while at camp. This

has always been an extra cost

to the camps or churches. So

we were thrilled when CBS

made an offer to provide

these Bibles to our camps at

no cost. Our desire, along with

Canadian Bible Society, is to

see any child or youth who

wants a Bible to have one.

Just a few short months ago we wrote that

Encounter was just under way, and now as we

write, we realize that its over half done! Weve

seen God do some amazing things in the lives

of our students so far. He has grounded many

of them in the gospel and awakened them to an

identity that is rooted in Him. So far our school

has travelled to:

Hampton Bible Camp, Hampton, NBCamp des Iles, Lachute, QCGalilean Bible Camp, Blind River, ONValley View Bible Camp, MacGregor, MBTorch Trail Bible Camp, Choiceland, SK

It has been a wonderful journey so far! We have

had the opportunity to explore a beautiful country,

but more importantly, encounter a beautiful God!

Heres what our students are saying:

God has used Encounter and the awesometeachings we have had to show me how

my identity must be in Him and not in what

I do for Him. Encounter is a safe place to

learn and be challenged, having our mentor,

leaders and fellow students to support us,

encourage us, pray with us and grow with us.

MARIANNE, QUBEC

Encounter School of Discipleship has been

an amazing experience. Ive always wanted

to travel and I knew that I was to go to a

Bible school Encounter was the perfect

fit. I have learnt many things about myself,

also, the Gospel has become more alive to

me in a new way and has revived my desire

to know and see the God I serve daily. Not

only have I been learning a lot, the team

has been like a family to me. They have all

been super encouraging and supportive.

MELISSA, SASKATCHEWAN

Encounter has been a very wonderful but

challenging opportunity for me. God has

taught me to be vulnerable by taking me

away from what I know and placing me in

here to learn to trust Him. He has taught

me that it is not about me, it never has

been, and it never will be. Its about Him

and Him alone, and letting Him lead me.

hadnt caught a vision for the

broken heart of Jesus for the

faithful through every battle,

through every nancial high

for each victory as we labour

together to reach the lost.

3) Volunteers to be part of the

4) Volunteer labourers when it is

UGM and the GospelGods providence is something

that never fails to amaze us the

way He goes before us and leads

the way. One morning, during our

regular staff prayer time, we were

reminded of the One Hope Canada

mission statement: To present

the Gospel to those having the

least opportunity to hear of Christ,especially children and youth, and

to disciple believers for living and

serving through His Church. As a

staff we felt that we needed to seek

God as to how we would fulll this

statement, particularly how we

would reach those who had the

least opportunity to hear of Jesus

Christ. Shortly after, we received

a phone call from the Family Life

Centre in Winnipeg asking us if wewould consider taking 30 children

from the inner city each week of

camp that summer, in addition to

their designated week. We clearly

saw that this was God opening a

door for us to fulll the mission

statement that we have been

given, and that if we said no to this

opportunity we would be acting

in disobedience. We said yes, and

thus began the amazing journey of

discovering what the summer of

2013 would be like. It also painted

a picture of what we hope to see in

the future.

It is our desire for God to

continue to instil in us a

passion for the Gospel. As that

happens we hope to become

more intentional about

spreading the truth. As we look

around us now and into the

future, we recognize the many

opportunities God is givingus to do exactly that: through

the Life Skills program, the

Tubing Hill, interacting with

rental groups, in all aspects of

summer camp, and even our

fundraisers. In every aspect

of what goes on here at camp,

we desire the Gospel to be

presented. Our prayer is that it

is transforming our lives, and

the lives of those we come incontact with. It is only because

of the Gospel that we can serve

God in this capacity, and that

we can be burdened for this

country and its people.

Pray also for me, that

whenever I open my mouth,

words may be given to me so

that I will fearlessly make

known the mystery of the

gospel, for which I am an

ambassador in chains. Pray

that I may declare it fearlessly,

as I should(Ephesians 6:19-20

NIV)

We hope to become more intentional about spreadingthe truth. As we look around us now, we recognize themany opportunities God is giving us to do exactly that.

Adventure Day Campfeature

Adventure Day Camp is a

camp on wheels! Our team

travels throughout Manitoba,

last summer visiting ten

different locations. One of our

goals is to assist Christians in

their local area to reach their

community with the Gospel.

One of the unique aspects

of this ministry is that we

can connect with the local

church and work alongside

them. We bring a team of

enthusiastic young people,

lesson materials, cra ft and gamesupplies - the full program - to

the c ommunity. Volunteers

from the community join us for

the week, connecting with the

children and their families. At

the end of the week, when the

program is over, the Adventure

Day Camp team leaves, but the

connections

between

the church

and their

community

remain. The

church is

now better

equipped, and

more eager to

plan follow-

up activities,

continuing

to strengthen that relationship,

with the hope to bring the

salvation message to the lost.

One exciting step forward

is happening right now

in a church in Winnipeg -

Tabernacle Baptist C hurch.

They have had Adventure Day

Camp come to their church for

two years. Although the size

of the congregation is small,

their heart to reach out to their

community is large. They are

nestled in a community full of

families, and many unchurchedkids attended Adventure Day

Camp in the summer. One

Hope Canada has partnered

with them, and they have now

organized a Kids Club that

will run for 20 weeks during

the school year. Two students

from a nearby Christian Bible

College are volunteering to

run the program, as part of t he

requirement of their school

program. We advertised to

families in the area - those

who attended Adventure Day

Camp, but also to those who

attended any of our overnight

camps. It is really exciting

to see that the seeds planted

in the summer will have

the opportunity to continue

growing throughout the year.

If you know of a church

which has a desire to reach

its community with the

Gospel, but needs some

assistance, please have

them contact Melanie

Mushaluk, Adventure Day

Camp Coordinator (melanie@

onehopecanada.ca). We

may even have some space

available for this summer!

What are you passionate about?

What drives you to do the things you do?

Allow me to share three scenes of the

past six months.

SCENE 1

Several months ago I was able to

experience the Winnipeg Jets playing

in the MTS centre against the Calgary

Flames. The atmosphere at the arena on

game day is electric and it is hard not to

get carried away by the wave of passion

that flows through the crowd. One is

struck immediately by the volume of the

fans even before the game starts, as the

Jumbotron projects the Jets brand and the

Fuelled by Passion theme. The volume of

the fan noise continues almost unabated

throughout the game, with the Go Jets

Go chant reverberating through the arena.

Despite losing the game in a shoot-out, the

atmosphere continues to be charged as

fans leave the building determined that

their champions will win the next one.

SCENE 2

November 24, 2013 Mosaic Stadium,

Regina Saskatchewan. The 101st Grey Cup

Game featuring the Hamilton Tiger Cats

versus the Saskatchewan Roughriders

and Rider Nation. It is Game Day and

the stadium is packed to overflowing with

green. There are a few passionate black

and gold dressed fans, but theyre hard to

locate in the sea of green. The crescendoof noise and action is almost overwhelming

as the Green Machine decimates the

opposition! I was born in Saskatchewan,

grew up in Regina and I still bleed green

when it comes to the Canadian Football

League. You could say that I am passionate

about my Rider team, and their winning

the Grey Cup this past November will be a

memory that I will cherish for a long time.

SCENE 3

Roseau River Bible Camp, Gimli Bible

Camp, Valley View Bible Camp, Dauphin

Bible Camp, Turtle Mountain Bible Camp,Adventure Day Camp six One Hope

Canada ministry points here in Manitoba.

We are privileged to have thirteen

missionary couples who give their energy

their very lives for the camping ministries

of One Hope Canada. In mid-October we

gathered as a One Hope Canada Manitoba

Mission Team for our annual family retreat

and banquet. It was a time for us here at

the Ministry Resource Centre to love on

our missionaries and their families.

The highlight of the weekend for me

is hearing the stories of lives that have

been impacted and changed through

the camping ministry that happened

last summer. I hear the passion that our

missionaries have for sharing the Good

News of Jesus, and I experience the burden

that they have for those who come to our

various camping ministries. Hundreds of

children and youth, many who are hurting,

broken and feeling unworthy of love, hear

of the love that Jesus has for them. They

experience in tangible ways the love that

is spoken of as our missionaries full time

and summer staff live out that love.

As I reflect on these three scenes of my

recent past I am struck by this thought.

The passion that I experienced in Scene

1 and Scene 2 is real but it is fleeting

passion passion for a moment. Thepassion revealed in Scene 3 is eternal!

Because of the passion for the Gospel that

is part of the DNA of One Hope Canada,

and the burden for a lost and dying world

right next door, there are hundreds, if

not thousands who will experience the

amazing wonder of eternal life with

Jesus! Im thinking that is a passion worth

pursuing!

Canadas northneeds you!

Beaver Lake Bible Campstaff

The time commitment is as

follows:

availability to attend a

quarterly board meeting in

Flin Flon/Creighton area

availability throughout the

summer months to assist at

the camp where needed

willingness to represent

the camp before ones local

church in seeking prayer

support, volunteers, and

nancesI realize that only a small

portion of you reading this

are from the Flin Flon area.

However, if you know of anyone

currently living there, we need

your help! Would you be willing

to contact them and invite them

to consider this need?

Many people have heard of

Christ for the very rst time

at Beaver Lake Bible Camp,

including my uncle, Ken

Bensen (we featured his story

in our last magazine). He is

still the only believer in his

family and, were it not for

Beaver Lake Bible Camp, might

still be lost. There are many

more people who need to hearof Christ in Canadas north.

And all we need to re-open

this vital ministry link is four

willing souls. Will you join us

in praying for and seeking four

board members for Beaver Lake

Bible Camp? A new generation

of Uncle Kens thanks you!

God is not nished with Beaver

Lake Bible Camp!

Those words echoed around the

camp re, lled the grounds of the

camp and continued to resound

in our minds as we made the long

trek home from the Beaver Lake

Bible Camp Staff Reunion last

August.

However, in the months since

that exciting weekend, things have

been eerily silent from the north.

In order to reopen the camp, localinvolvement is essential. We need

at least four (4) board members

from the Flin Flon area. This

would provide local leadership,

assistance when facility repairs are

needed, and maintain the camps

presence in the minds and hearts

of local believers.

The words we speak have a great impact on those who hear. They can encourage andbless others, but they can also hurt deeply. Whether positive or negative, the impact ismuch greater than we think.

For example, as I was heading back to my car after prayer meeting one night, a ladywhose faith I admire spoke four simple words to me: On wings of eagles. It was

perfectthe timing, the truth, etc.It has encouraged me to remember Gods promise, as I continue to lean on His

strength every moment of my life. The Holy Spirit prompted her to speak this Bible truthto a needy soul. She does not remember speaking those words to me. But I DO. This

phrase has stuck with me ever since, and each time I feel hopeless, the words ring in mymind, and I am reminded to hope in the One who can carry me through lifes difculties.Let us be attentive to the Holy Spirits prompting to pray for and to encourage others.

And let us hope in the Lord, our only source of strength.

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They willsoar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walkand not be faint (Isaiah 40:31).

Adults Devotional

The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the

outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7b).You probably know at least one person who looks different than everyone else, or who

has a hard time talking, or who wears clothes nobody else would want to wear. Have you

ever made fun of such people? I have. And did this make me feel any better? I thought so.

But after a while, I felt worse, because although I felt more important in my friends eyes, I

knew that God did not approve of my behaviour.

Too often we think that life is all about being better than others. But is it really? We think

that if we push others down, somehow that will bring us up, and people will like us. But in the

end, what will matter is not how many friends you had, or how good-looking you were. What

will matter is how you lived your life. Did you live for yourself, or for God? God cares aboutthe appearance of your heart! He hates evil, and so should you.

Maybe you are the person who is laughed at. Remember what matters to God!

OLIVECARMICHAELPrecious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his faithful servants.

Psalm 116:15, NIV

It is with sadness that we announce the death of Olive Carmichael, a faithful CSSM

Missionary since 1936. Olive was in her 100th year and passed away peacefully on

October 3rd, 2013 and is now in the arms of our blessed Lord Jesus Christ! Olive

was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on June 5th, 1914 and came to Canada in 1915.

Olive was one of the true pioneers of our CSSM Mission. She began her ministry

as a rural missionary for Canadian Sunday School Mission in 1936, using bicycle

and horse and buggy as her means of transportation in the early days. Olive put on

many miles to conduct gospel services, teach Vacation Bible School, do visitation

and hold Bible classes in the public schools. She continued until 1951, when she

became the secretary for the National Office of CSSM Ministries. There Olive was

a major force in the editing of the CSSM periodicals, telling the childrens stories

on the weekly CSSM radio broadcast, among her many other duties. Although she

retired from active duty in 1979, she continued to assist as a volunteer until her

health prevented her from doing so.

Olive held this ministry close to her heart and, as long as she was able, prayed

fervently for our missionaries, our work, and the children and youth who needed to

be reached.

We praise God for the life and ministry of Olive Carmichael. She has blessed us in

so many ways. Although we grieve, in our loss, we rejoice that she has entered into

eternity, her Lord Jesus Christ - whom she served faithfully - having prepared the

way for her.

What a blessing and encouragement she has been to many! Truly she was one

that we can treasure as a faithful servant of the Lord, and we thank God for her

commitment and loving ministry with CSSM.

number of people glanced

over as they passed the

elderly woman working

in her front lawn. She had finished

planting flowers in the gardenand was now struggling to plant a

sapling to replace a tree felled by a

wind storm the previous summer.

Can I help you? offered a young

man stopping in front of her house.

She gratefully handed him the

spade and he made short work

of digging a hole. After dragging

the ten-foot sapling into place and

replacing the soil, he began tamping

it in place while ensuring the tree

was properly positioned. I live

down the street he said as he

finished the task. I remember

you helping my friends families

and babysitting some of my friends

over the years. If there is anything

else I can do to help you I would

be honored.

A healthy community is one where

people choose to assist their neighbors

and benefit from the generous

assistance of others in return. We

may often have a similar relationship

with our favourite Bible Camp.

Which Bible Camp has been a

neighbor to you over the years,

providing camping experiences

and teaching you, your children

or grandchildren about Jesus?

Are you in a position to be a good

neighbor, providing manpower

or funding for the projects the

camp is working on to improve its

ministry now and into the future?

Like the sapling which will provide

shade for years to come, a new buildingat your local camp or a contribution to

the One Hope Canada Development

Fund can reap long-term benefits

at the local or national levels of the

ministry. These types of projects

benefit from gifts that may be larger

than a typical annual cash donation.

Donors might consider providing

a larger gift like an in-kind gift of

appreciated stocks or mutual fund

shares or a bequest from an estate.

One Hope Canada has partnered with

Mennonite Foundation of Canada to

assist you in supporting its local and

national ministries by the means that

make the most sense for your particu-

lar financial situation. MFC staff can

explain the financial benefits and assist

with donating appreciated publicly

traded shares or mutual funds. We also

have forty years of experience assisting

individuals with charitable estate plan-

ning. Contact an MFC office or your

The most important one,

answered Jesus, is this: Hear,

O Israel: The Lord our God, the

Lord is one. Love the Lord your

God with all your heart and

with all your soul and with all

your mind and with all your

strength. The second is this:

Love your neighbor as yourself.

There is no commandment

greater than these (Mark 12:29-

31NIV).

Can you imagine what it

might look like to see the next

generation standing up and

living their lives full out for

God? What might it take to make

that happen?

Eight different churches

and Dauphin Bible Camp are

joining together for that reason,

to help the next generationsee who Christ truly is, and to

walk beside the youth of the

community as they live their

lives for God. The group comes

together to bring the Good News

of Jesus Christ to the youth

of the community, as well as

teaching, encouraging and

inspiring them to love God with

all their hearts, souls, minds,

and strength, and to love others

as themselves.

God has brought His Church

together to reach out to the

youth of the community.

Dauphin Community Youth

Ministry is focused on having

a community youth pastor who

will spend time purposefully

building into the l ives of youth,

sharing the Gospel of Jesus

Christ with them, and walking

with them as they discover their

paths in life. Many churchesare not able nancially to hire a

youth pastor to do these things,

and so they rely solely on

volunteers. But volunteers have

jobs that they are committed to,

and are not available as much

as youth need them to be. This is

why the churches and Dauphin

Bible Camp have joined forces to

give the youth the attention and

care that they deserve.

The ministr y is unique

because of the multiple churches

that are represented, and that

the ministry represents one very

big truth: we are part of Gods

Church and we need to come

together and share His Gospel,

His truth, and His love.

Hopefully one day the next

generation will stand together

worshipping and proclaiming

the name of Jesus all because

people opened their eyes to seethe Church as one, united by the

Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Coming togetherfor a purpose

We are part of Gods Church andwe need to come together and shareHis Gospel, His truth, and His love.

growing in their walk with God.

Introducing kids to God is the

most important thing we cando, and the challenge is to help

them hold on to Him. When I

was told about follow-up as a

young cabin leader it seemed

totally unrealistic. It felt like it

was all on my shoulders, but God

has not called us to live or serve

individualistically. He wants us

to live and serve in community.

This is now we are seeing

follow-up done, in community;

as the body of believers thus

taking away the pressure from

the individual.

A wise woman told me that

an undiscipled church cannot

disciple. As a camp we are

evangelism oriented because of

the kids that walk through our

doors. But God has been showing

us that we need to start doing

more. This process starts from

the top: leadership building into

staff, staff building into campers,

and campers building into their

community. With God, this is

more than possible, and lives will

be changed!

We have a small group of

people who are passionate for

being involved in follow-up, and

we are working together to seek

Gods vision. Discipling our staff

is the place to start, through Bible

studies and events which gives

them a support system. We have

already started creating retreats

during the year for kids weve

seen take a step of faith or who

are already following God. These

weekends are planned to disciple

and encourage them, to get them

involved in a church, and to

reconnect with friends and staff

who have become adults in their

lives that they can look up to.

Follow-up ministry is slowly

surfacing, and its exciting to see

what God has in store for Gimli

Bible Camp, for Winnipeg, and for

this world, to raise up generations

after Gods own heart. Please pray

for us!

We have been given an

amazing opportunity to work

with hundreds of kids eachsummer, sharing with them

the good news of Gods love.

Throughout One Hope Canada,

our camps attract both church

and unchurched kids. The

beauty of this is that kids from

all walks of life are learning

about our incredible God. Ive

been working at camps for the

past nine years and follow-up

(contacting and encouraging

former campers) has always been

stirring in the background.

Here at Gimli Bible Camp, God

has really been showing us and

giving us a passion for follow-up

ministry. For the kids who have

gotten to taste and see that God

is good, going back home is not

the easiest thing to do, while

You are faithful, You are

Savior, You are more than

enough. These are words from

a familiar song written by the

Newsboys and they ring SO

true with the Saviors people at

Roseau River Bible Camp! This

past year has been one of changeand of growth.

We had a change of

directorship this year. Our

director of six years resigned as

of September. This brought on

a strong sense of prayer for the

future. One day three of us staff

members were sitting around a

More than enough

Roseau River Bible Campfeature

picnic table discussing some

possibilities for fulltime stafng

positions. The Lord gave us

direction and we came up with

an ofcial offer of a three-

couple director committee that

we presented to our board:

Duane and Sylvia Goertzen Executive Directors, Jared

and Colleen Fast Ministry

Directors, Boyd and Sharon

Kliever Site Directors. The

board was 100% in favor of this

proposal and we have now

been serving in these positions

for six months.

Excitement is in the air at Roseau River Bible Camp

We three couples feel a close

connection as we move the camp

forward step by step with Gods

direction. To realize that He is

more than enough is important

to us all. So many times the

camp and its projects seem to be

about the temporal and physicalaspects and we forget the Lords

faithfulness and where He

has brought us and the camp.

And so each day we have to

return to our primary vision: to

draw everyone closer to Christ

through our staff, facilities and

program. Excitement is in the air

as we move into the 2014 camp

season. With many new plans

and inspirations we ask for yourprayer, so they will be totally in

line with Gods plan.

Our theme for this coming

summer is GENESIS (Acts 17:24-

25). Often when you want to

move forward you need to look

back to see the master plan. A

focus on creation does just that.

We desire that every person who

steps onto camp property in 2014

will experience some of Godspower as they see His creation

all around us.

Cookingwith Kathy

it became inevitable that I

would eventually need to tackle

this feat on my own. Although

cooking challenged, Icanfollow

directions. The recipe said, Let

the bird chill in the sink for a

few hours. In my condence,

I searched for my Staples That

Was Easy button! Feeling

on a roll, I decided to ask my

signicant other to assist with

the food preparations, giving

instructions to peel about half

the potatoes. (Okay, so maybe

following directions isnt one of

our stronger points.)

Its been exciting having our

18-month-old granddaughter

visiting from Zimbabwe. Ive

discovered that living with a

toddler is like using a blender

with no lid. I was reminded of

the importance of cutting big

pieces of meat or other foods into

little pieces so she could handle

them.

The Psalmist reminds us, This

is the daythe Lord has made. Let

us rejoice and be glad in it. Our

mission is to simply cut life into

bite-sized chunks called days. The

Bible talks about strength that

comes as your days come; picking

up your cross daily, getting

mercies that are new every

morning; and how our inward

man is renewed day by day. God

will stitch those days together

into a tapestry that makes a life.

We dont need to be paralyzed by

guilt over the past or anxiety over

the future. We can trust the Lord

to cover both, one bite at a time.

When I was a kid, I could

toast a marshmallow over my

birthday cake.

Now I could roast a turkey.

Its funny how traditions neverdie. Since my mom had always

cooked the turkey in a large

greased paper bag, I thought

that must be the only way. One

thing I failed to notice was her

removing the innards from

inside the bird prior to cooking.

Fortunately, Im a quick learner

and now remember that detail.

Im sure everyone has forgotten

veggies in the microwave until

putting away the leftovers

or discovered charcoal buns

in the oven you were drying

several weeks before! Like most

families, we always enjoyed

those wonderful home-cooked

turkey dinners with loved ones

on special occasions. Since we
