Year End School Program

The students put on an absolute fantastic program this evening! Our theme was called: No Shortcuts to Greatness, and consisted of several short skits that taught a biblical principle, while the main drama was titled, "Joseph the Dreamer". It ended with the school girls dramatizing the song, "Worthy is the Lamb!" Very touching song and act. As always, the gym was packed with friends and neighbors!

 

New House going up

A new house is taking shape where we filled in that valley this past summer. This is house one of four scheduled along this street.

10 day Church ministry Trip

3 of our elders took a special trip to visit brethren in Manitoba and USA, and what a blessed time it was. We are currently working to start a fellowship in Manitoba, as well as the fellowship in Minnesota. One thing became very clear as we spent time with the brethren --- God is moving again! Not only did we witness transformed lives and thinking, we also sensed a great longing in the people of God. A longing for a greater reality, more unity, and a clearer direction in which God is moving His people at this hour.

Twenty-seven, including 13 young people were baptized at Altona fellowship, and what a joy that was!! We just pray this Holy Spirit work will continue as God leads His children from Glory to Glory!

 

We also ordained a lead pastor at Altona and four elders as the Bible teaches, and we're very blessed to be part of this move of God. To HIM ALONE belongs the GLORY and HONOR and POWER both now and forever, Amen!

Another Successful Harvest Season Ends

There were long stretches where we couldn't harvest this season due to weather, but the Lord granted us another marvelous harvest, and thanks to the crew putting in long hours to clean it up. Truly a blessing to realize how much He cares for all. Thank you, Lord God Almighty!

Gospel Express Visits

We enjoyed a great evening with music and fellowship with friends and neighbors. One of the teams of Gospel Express ministries had a presentation in our gym last evening. Gospel Express specializes in prison ministries and they have an excellent ministry.

Feeding a Hungry Harvest Crew!

Our Father has again blessed us richly with many blessings, spiritual and physical, and this time of gathering in the harvest is the perfect illustration of the Spiritual harvest upon us at this time. Pray ye the Lord of the Harvest that He send forth laborers...,

It takes 20 men at the height of the season to keep everything running smoothly, not to mention the many little things that go on behind the scenes..., like the sisters preparing delicious meals!

New Fuel Station in the Making!

We've had these old liquid holding tanks laying around for several years already. This year we decided to get a use out of them. It took a while to sandblast and paint them, but finished product looks pretty sharp.

Dining Hall Exterior finish

The Outside of our new dining hall is complete and it looks sharp! We did all the rock work and stucco ourselves.

Completed major landscaping and Earthmoving Project

It took 3 weeks and over 12,000 yards of dirt, but we filled in a deep valley to create a bit of extra real estate for possible expansion. We also installed all the utilities for 4 single unit starter homes. At the deepest spot, it needed nearly 20 feet of dirt to bring area up to level.

Springtime, Seedtime, Rebirth

Springtime! A season of rebirth and hope as we once again put our hands to the plough to kick off the seeding season. With many acres to cover and fields stretching from Makwa, Sask, to Dewberry, Alta, we opted to update some of our seeding implements, namely the grain carts. This year they are on tracks and somewhat larger than our previous models, now holding almost half a B train each.

Spiritually we have also experienced springtime for many of our young people, as 10 of them received Jesus Christ as their Saviour this spring, hallelujah, praise the Lord, glory to His mighty name! ! !
