Team members talking with Chief Tait and Rev. Solomon Beardy addressing the church after worshipĬhief Titus Tait thanking the team for coming to Sachigo Lake It was nice to see the Chief again and have a chance to talk briefly with him. Chief Titus Tait also spoke and thanked the team for coming to Sachigo Lake. Beardy thanks the team for being there with tears of appreciation in his eyes. But the best part is that everyone there is one in Christ-forgiven sinners who have received God's grace and mercy. The people in the community come to listen and learn about their Savior. Pastor Brad shares the message through his sermon. The team shares the message of Jesus through their music. After breakfast, the team got ready to head to the church for worship. Sunday morning found a couple of the women already at work making breakfast for the crew. The team working out lyrics for the Sunday music Then we headed to bed (or in my case, the sleeping bag). Yes, that's me "using my head" again to make connections with the childrenĪs we sat around late Saturday evening, the team prepared a few songs that they would sing as part of the worship service on Sunday. That's a major role the teams have-to build their relationships with the communities which allows them to share the Gospel of Jesus openly.

It was great to connect to the children and parents on an evening walk after dinner. I also had a couple of one-on-one conversations that allowed me to encourage and support those individuals. I got to know them better and we were able to have a number of discussions especially about how their experience compared to other VBS teams. It was really nice to be able to have a much more relaxed schedule with the team. It was a luxury to be able to do this since normally we have to head into other communities to meet with VBS teams. This would be an overnight stay to spend more time with the team and in the community.

Solomon Beardy who took us to the teacher house where the team was staying. Upon our arrival, we were met at the airport by Rev. It comes so quickly and goes by just even faster.Īt the end of my last exciting episode, I had left the team in good hands at Muskrat Dam and was heading to Sachigo Lake, Ontario. It was down to the last couple of weeks in August and then the summer VBS season would be over.
