Our First Year In Review!

Mens Retreat May of 2008

Bro. Bobbie Bonner, Missionary to Africa and Founder of IAM Ministries spoke to the men this year. They had a great time of preaching, fellowship and good food provided by the ladies of JMF. Make Plans to come next year!

Jr. Camp June of 2008


We had a great camp for Junior age kids. Pastor Eric Lamphere from Clark Fork Baptist Church was our guest speaker. He challenged the kids from the Bible and preached all week on the theme of "Jesus is the answer" 11 were saved and many decisions to live for God were made.
They had fun with games, hikes, skits, boys went swimming in the lake while the girls did fun crafts and then they switched so the girls could swim while the boys did crafts. The camp food was great and the last night Bro. Jensen took the kids on a hay ride and we ended camp with a big bon fire on the island with a time of testimony. Camp is an investment in eternity. Many decisions are made at camp for full time christian service, missionary call and the call to preach the Gospel.

Senior Camp August of 2008



Evangelist Mark Rogers was the guest speaker. It is always a great time when Bro. Rogers comes. The Teens really love to hear him sing and preach. Many teens at Faith Baptist were humming "One more night with the stinking frogs" the week before camp! God blessed and there was alot of fun and fueding between the "Hatfields and the McCoys" There were 3 saved and many decisions for Christ.

Long Winter At Lota-Wata

It was a long winter! Notice The American Eagle in the tree.



A few braved the roads for a day of fun on the sledding hill.


Looks like fun!


We lost part of a building due to heavy snow fall.
Stay tuned to see what God has done because of it!
It took the men several hours to clear the roofs off after a snow fall.

The men from Faith help repair the bridge out to the island.

Pastor Boyle, Bro. Jensen and Pastor Lamphere from Clark Fork Baptist Church.


Bro. Marks making sure the job gets done right!



Water Lines have been layed to provide water to the areas
around the lake for sprinklers and drinking fountains.

One of the first things done was a ball field big enough for any games to be played at camp.
A parking lot was also cleared and seeded. It is so exciting to see the camp take shape!
