Dear {First Name},
When we submitted building permits for our new MDS Canada project in Monte Lake, B.C., we expected we’d be waiting a month to get them approved. Yet we all prayed regularly, hoping that by some miracle they would come sooner so we could get started. Our prayers were answered! In just under two weeks our building permits were approved.
Now, as we move forward with the Monte Lake project, we know that many more prayers will be offered up along the way. We pray for enough volunteers, for the right skill sets to come when needed, for materials to arrive on time, and for hope to be brought to our clients. In our prayers we trust that God is working with us and through us.
Monte Lake is not the only project we are praying about. We pray that the remaining materials are delivered so we can finish our work in Princeton, B.C.
In the Fraser Valley we pray for stamina for our leaders who have been working hard in their own backyards.
We are excited for the youth groups who have signed up to serve in New Brunswick this July, and pray they will have meaningful experiences.
And we pray more families will sign up for our family project we’re planning in Princeton from mid-July to mid-August.
At MDS Canada, we need volunteers and donations. But we also need prayers! Your prayers for our work are important to us. And if you are praying about how God might use you this summer, you can reach out to me at kfriesen@mds.org for leadership or long-term opportunities and to Clara Flores at cflores@mds.org for weekly service opportunities. We can also be reached by phone at 204-261-1274.
Thank you for the many ways you partner with MDS and participate in our mission to bring hope, faith and wholeness to those who have experienced disaster—including prayer.
