Storm Update!

@campfirwood was hit extremely hard by the 11/20 storm. The road is still currently fully blocked with access only available through our Sudden Valley access gate. We have over 30 trees down around the property and more that need to be taken down for safety reasons. We lost 2 cabins plus there’s significant damage to another cabin roof. The cost for repairs just for the cabins is $13,000, and we’re waiting on estimates for clearing trees.

• Please pray for favor with the company helping us with tree removal; that they would feel compelled to support our ministry through discounted rates.

• Pray as we seek to raise funds for clean up while we still need to prioritize end of year operational fundraising as well.

• Pray for safety for our maintenance team and all who are working on clean up.

If you would like to help with our clean up efforts you can make a donation using the link in our bio or by visiting this link::

We are so excited and thankful for our new covered pavilion in the @firsandfiddleheads forest.

This new space allows for circle time at the end of each day where students hear Bible stories, sing songs, and learn about a God who created them and the world around them. 🌍

What a beautiful space! Thank you to our incredible maintenance team and generous donors for making a dream become reality. ✨

A couple of weeks ago we hosted our annual board retreat on The Firs grounds. During our weekend together, we spent time praying, reading scripture, and singing hymns around the Cable St. property. It is a blessing to see how the Lord continues to sustain not only our ministries, but he has sustained a committed group of board members who lead by faith.

Thank you to our current board of directors, and for those who have come before and those who will follow. We are grateful for your leadership and servant heart.

To Him be the glory!
