June Mission Update
In June, please pray for Covenant Harbor, Covenant Point, and Pregnancy Care
Center. “Covenant Harbor has been a place of refuge, refreshment, encouragement,
transformation, and of course fun for 75 years. God continues to change lives
through Covenant Harbor. The camp changes the lives of guests of all ages, saves
marriages, encourages churches and ultimately be a place where people have accepted
Christ. They have summer camps for grades 1-12. They also have winter
camps that provide high-quality large group teaching and worship as well as
small group time for leaders and students.” For more information see covenantharbor.

“Covenant Point’s programs seek to create unique experiences of Christ-centered
community for every camper, encouraging in their next step of faith. They offer a
variety of programs, including classic residential large-group mainland camps,
small group back country trips and medium-sized rustic island camps. Covenant
Point also provides accommodations to groups seeking a retreat or conference
site, or wilderness trip outfitting and guiding into the Upper Peninsula’s surrounding
wilderness areas. Covenant Point values stillness and silliness, deep
discipleship, wilderness and adventure, space to lead and excellent care.” For
more information see cpbc.com.
“The Pregnancy Care Center of Rockford provides pregnancy and sexual health
services, resources, referrals, and education to women, men, and families at no
cost.
They believe each individual has the right to get information from a resource that
will not profit from their reproductive health choices. No matter what circumstances
bring women through their doors, they want to empower support and
equip them to live their best lives. They also have a mobile medical unit to make
their services more accessible to those who might have trouble making it to the
center.” For more information see thepregrenancycarecenter.org. For those who
have taken the baby bottles for donations please return them to the church by
June 15.
July Mission Update
In July, please pray for The Haven Network and Peter and Anna.
“The Haven Network is an independent Christian Ministry offering
life-affirming services, providing emotional, spiritual and practical
support for families who have experienced the death of a baby
through miscarriage, still birth, ectopic pregnancy, SIDS, early infant
death and families who are facing a terminal diagnosis of their
pre-born or newborn baby. They strive to help parents build memories
of their precious little one, enabling them to remember this difficult
time with comfort, knowing they did the best for their baby
and entire family. The Haven network offers their services at no
cost and supports the families for as long as they need them”. For
more information see thehavennetwork.org.
Peter and Anna are currently serving in Asia. Peter is counseling
men. These men have a desire to change, and Peter sees God working
in their lives. Peter believes that as a church we are a place of
healing and hope. Anna works as a nurse in a clinic for
women. They are asking for prayers as they prepare to come back
to the United States this summer. Especially pray for their children
as the younger ones have not been here in five years.
