We will be CLOSED 8/29/2026 - 9/05/2026. Our small group, The Misfits, are going back to South Dakota this year. It will be a working trip, the same as last year, but this year we're adding a marriage class every evening we're there. We will also be serving the attendees dinner every night. We have faith that Yahweh Yireh, The Lord our Provider, will provide everything we need to complete this mission. We believe that God blesses our yeses, & He will bless your yes as well. Thank you so much for any donation God has laid on your heart to give. God will count everything you give here the same as if you had given it unto Him.
