JSTM 2013 has safely arrived at the Gabriel Lodge on Saturday, July 27th. The team left SCAC on Friday around 9pm. After 1200 km, 3 stops and 15 hours of driving, we arrived in Chibougamau and were greeted with open arms by Rev. Enoch Hall and Mrs. Frieda Hall.

We are so thankful for each member of the team- everyone was either cooking, setting up tables or moving baggage, equipment and materials into the Gabriel Lodge! The kitchen team made fried udon for the whole team, and it was delicious! We were able to fellowship with one another during lunch, getting to know one another a bit more than before.

Moreover, we are so thankful for the beautiful weather! As you can see, there are clear skies and a bright sun. It is perfect weather for each team to prepare for the following week.
The renovation team has gone to buy materials for fixing windows at the Gabriel Lodge and exterior houses (Saturday). They have started to work on several areas of the lodge already. The Children & Worship Ministry have begun to prepare for the following as well.

On Sunday, a part of the team will be visiting Ouje-Bougoumou for worship service with Rev. Hall. The children's ministry will be there to hold a program for the kids during this time as well.
Please continue to pray for the team as the week has only begun. Please keep the following in your prayers:
1. Praise God for great weather, protection and guidance
2. Pray for safety for the entire team, especially the Renovation team who will perform many physical tasks
3. Pray for the hearts of the native people as we prepare for the week
4. Unity within our team and fellowship with one another
5. Please pray for wisdom and patience for each member of our team
6. Pray that in all that we do, it will be used to glorify God!
Blessings,
JSTM 2013
