Well after a few hiccups in our plans, we are planning on leaving for the west sometime tomorrow!
We are thankful we didn't travel during peak travel time during this Memorial Day weekend.
On that note, we are very thankful for those who have given their lives in order to protect our freedoms so that we can share the gospel! We remember those who are gone and they will never be forgotten.
Please pray for us that once we get off on our trip that God will grant us safety and good health as we travel.
We have multiple things to be thankful also!
Krystle's Grandma came out of surgery and is recovering well!
The weather forecast is nice and cool for our travels!
God is good, all the time!
Signing off for now,

The Final Preparations
Please pray with us for these prayer requests:
*Safety while traveling on one of the busiest traffic weekends of the year
*God's guidance in the search for housing
*God's continued provision so we can be at 100% quickly
*Good health as we travel and work
We will post once we get out to Camp and hopefully post some pictures too!
Now off to continue and (hopefully) finish packing quickly!
Take care, God bless and thank you all!

OP's
Organizing & Packing
We have been busy packing away winter things and organizing our summer things!
With packing away comes organizing and decluttering.
Sometimes while I work on organizing and decluttering I think of how it's important to declutter our lives, not just physically but also spiritually.
Our busy, fast paces, technologically advanced lives get so cluttered up it takes away from our relationship with Christ. Crazy how things that are supposed to save us time actually take it away from us! I like that photo going around on the internet that says "If you are too busy to read your Bible and pray, then you are busier than God ever intended". Hmmm. Interesting.
We will be heading out west soon for a few weeks, pray that God will grant us safety traveling and to continue to show His provision!
God Bless!

Preparations for Summer!
We are so thankful to have Immanuel Baptist Church of Wausaukee to be one of our supporting churches! We look excited to have them partner up with us in camp ministry!
We are also so thankful for all our friends and family that have partnered up with us financially and prayerfully! What a blessing it is to have people join up with us and share in the sharing of the Gospel!
We are getting so close to the 50% mark! We are praying for God's continuous provision and we will be able to get to the 100% mark quickly! God has called us to this mission and we will continue to follow Him, for He knows all of our needs (Matthew 6:31-34).
We are planning on leaving the end of May to work at Camp for a few weeks to help them get somewhat caught up on their vehicles in preparation for their summer camps starting up in July, also to get some staff training/orientation and finally look for a house/apartment.
Our prayer is that by the time we return to WI from this interlude at Camp, we will be at or very close to the 100% point so we can gather the rest of our belongings and head back out to stay! All in God's timing, but this is what we are praying for! Please pray with us God will bring in the rest of our finances quickly so we can get out there (to stay) before summer camps begin.
If you feel God has led you to partner up with us in camp ministry by monthly financial support you can send in a check to Camp Bighorn or you can give online by going to their website and clicking on "Support a Staff Member" then scrolling down to find us!
Special gifts are also needed to help with the cost of fuel during the moving process and move-in costs once we find a home/apartment to live in. Financial giving for this is also done the same way monthly giving is. All gifts are tax-deductible and Camp will send you a receipt for your financial gifts.
We are very excited that May is here and we are looking forward to our trip out west to begin our ministry at Camp! We can't wait for it to be permament!
Following Christ,

April snow showers bring May flowers (we hope!)
One thing we can be sure of is that God knows exactly what is going on in our lives and wants us to talk to Him about it!
Krystle is planning on making some curtains for the "Montana Kitchen" this week, while we all hope the weather changes for the warmer. We had a little taste of spring on Saturday which was a nice blessing in the midst of this extended winter we have been having!

Head(ing) for the Hills!
We are going to a local church this Sundayto give a presentation of what we will be doing out west. Just a few more support/update letters have to get in the mail this week. God is continuing to provide and we are so excited to have this opportunity to share what God is doing in our lives with others!
Please continue to keep us in prayer as we continue to raise both financial and prayer support. Our target date to go out west is May 20!
Just a quick ending thought:
If everyone of our Facebook and Twitter friends donated $10 every month we could begin serving at Camp Bighorn as quick as we could get packed up and go!!!! Just $10 a month from all our online friends could send us packing and heading for the "hills" to serve God and share the Gospel with the people in the Northwest region of the US!!!! That fact amazes me. That is like a Netflix subscription except that the funds would be going directly into ministry!!!!
Please, feel free to share your prayer requests with us and come back often to catch up with us here at our Lodge! God bless!!!
