Back to Basics - Ministry to Native Men (Partial) $1,000

This project will help native men in the Neah Bay, WA. area to understand that they can be both true to their native identity while also being Christian. The need is to work with native men in small group Bible studies, mentoring, teaching, leadership training seminary, and work projects. Funding will allow weekly and monthly gatherings, quarterly gatherings for honoring Elders; and periodic whole community interaction.  Funds will also be needed for building rental, speakers, supplies, food, etc.

Dear Heavenly Father,

      We come before you asking that our mites provide a 'Back to Basics' Ministry for native men in the area of Neah Bay, Washington.  Through Christian teaching, each man will learn that he can be true to his native identity while also being Christian.  The funds will be used for building rent to hold meetings, for speakers, for supplies, and for food.  Grant special blessings to this outreach in Washington.

In His name we pray. Amen.
