Day 6 Mission Update: Meadow Lake
Thank you for continuing to lift us up! We are on Day 6 of our trip and serving our third day at Turning Point Youth Center.
Sarah led today's devotional: 2 Corinthians 5:18 18 “All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.” Be God's tool: You go not in your own strength, but as a messenger of God's love. Show love and peace: Your actions and words should help heal broken spaces and point people to Jesus. Remember the goal: The main point of the trip is sharing the message of how God saves and changes lives.
Afterward, we continued cleaning and helping them to organize more spaces. In the afternoon, Beatrice and her girls led health and dental lessons for the youth. God was moving, and we wanted to share a specific praise and prayer request regarding our team member, Beatrice and her girls. Beatrice is uniquely gifted in dental care. Today, she used her professional skills to teach the local youth about dental hygiene. Her lessons focused not just on physical health, but on how we can use our bodies and health to glorify God. Praise the Lord we had a total of 11 youths attend today.
Please pray for the town of Meadow Lake. This town has lots of young adults who go to Bible college, but on the other hand it also has young people involved in gangs. It feels just like a battlefield between angels and satan. Please pray for the Door of Hope today. Pastor Marco spoke with Dalton, who oversees the ministry, and learned they face a major need for more evangelical workers to share the gospel. On a joyful note, praise the Lord that a donor gave a large gift to buy land for a new building, since the current facility does not meet building codes. Pastor Marco recently took us to the new property to pray over the land.
Tonight we had fellowship with the young adults group. We had a good time with a shared dinner, to get to know each other and we had a privilege for Jenny and Brandon shared their testimony.
Please keep our team in your prayers today:
Unity: That we work together seamlessly.
Heart & Peace: That our team remains encouraged and brings a peaceful, uplifting presence.
Reflection: That the work we are doing deeply reflects the love of Christ in our daily lives.
Door of Hope: Pray for financial and physical provision.
Turning Point Youth: Pray for clear guidance on their future direction.
Waterhen First Nation: Pray for open doors to share the gospel.
Thank you for faithfully standing with us!
Blessings,
SK STM Team 2
