CHILDREN’S HYMN:   God Will Make A Way     Below

God will make a way, when there seems to be no way.
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me.
He will be my guide, hold me closely to His side.
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way.
He will make a way.

By a roadway in the wilderness
He'll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His word will still remain
He will do something new today.

Dear Friends at Limehouse Presbyterian Church,

Thank you so much for your generous support of the ministry with the kids here in the Cariboo.  We have VBS happening in at least 3 communities this summer that I know of, and those ministries also extend through the year with after school and evening programmes for the kids in 2 of the communities.  We appreciate your prayers and support and the interest you've shown in God's work here among us.

Blessings,

Please continue to use the toonie jar for ongoing mission support. Thank you.
