Our Family & Friends event on November 9, 2013, was an enjoyable evening of entertainment, family, friends and fun! We shared a meal of delicious food from Danny’s Whole Hog, wonderful music by local artist Jordan St. Cyr, Bible games, and fellowship with those who came out in support of our ministry and staff. There were two guest speakers: Caroline Loewen, wife of the late Peter Loewen who worked with LifeLight to share the Gospel up North and Joel Cormie, Operations Manager of Lighthouse Mission. We held an auction with prizes ranging from kids’ stuff to women’s and men’s baskets, to a Christmas basket. The multimedia basket was the highlight of the evening’s prizes!
The atmosphere in the air was beautiful as we came together to celebrate what the ministry is doing and to share with our friends and family what we’re all about. It was also a chance to talk about our First Nations New Testament coming soon! This will help spread the Gospel even further throughout our Nation’s Aboriginal communities.
It was heart-warming to see our friends and family, some of whom we hadn’t seen in years, come out and support us! Thank you to all who took part in this fundraiser, including those who helped serve food, helped with set-up and the auction – we couldn’t have done it without you! This was a great time for all, and we look forward to many more events in the New Year!
