THE NEED:
There is need in several places for people to get construction work accomplished.
St. Gabriel's Camp is continuing its ongoing projects to fix up and complete buildings at the Camp. We are thankful for Grace Bible Church from Texas who made so many wonderful improvements to Camp Gabriel including a deck around the pool, porch and railing on Fairfield Lodge, Railings on Bearsheart Cabin, repairing Goodhouse Collesium, enclosing Beede's Crossing and building a stage inside to host many of our clubs during the summer, as well as a stage at St. Luke's for Club during the school year-Thanks a bunch!
We are thankful to Third Presbyterian Church in West Virginia for helping us host camp as well as put a new floor in at the Camp's Redhail Lodge. Thanks are also in order for the new floor that was greatly needed at St. Luke's in Fort Yates. St Luke's would love to finish their kitchen and finish the floors with mop boards and replacing windows and drywall. St. James in Cannonball is looking for a few good men (or women) to finish the siding after they sustained hail damage. They would also love their kitchen/foyer area repaired as they can see the outside since the ground has shifted.
At St. Paul's in White Shield on the Ft. Berthold Reservation (Arikara Nation) there is a need to help continue building a new parish hall from an old rectory on the ground level attached to the existing church.
At St. Sylvan's, Dunseith work is underway to build a new church and would love to have anyone able to donate their time and talent to this as well
If you would like to talk about any of these, I am available at 701 222 0041 or 701 891 2911.
God's Best,
