MARITIMES
The Arrowhead Native
Bible Center continues to serve as a hub of activity for NCEM's
Eastern-Field. As in past years, this summer will continue to see
the facilities used for several weeks of children's camp, with First
Nations young people attending from various areas of the Maritimes.
An overall view of the
Eastern-Field reminds us that it is truly a needy area with too few
workers to do the work that is necessary. NCEM is praying "the
Lord of the Harvest" to send new missionaries to work with the
Maritime team in the not too distant future.
There are over 40
reserves in the area with only a handful of NCEM missionaries
serving full-time. One couple is serving in Happy Valley-Goose Bay
(NL), but there is presently no one stationed on Newfoundland
Island. Cape Breton Island (NS) and Mirimachi (NB) are in desperate
need of full-time workers.
There are very few
Native Christian believers in these areas. However, there are
several standing true to the Lord in spite of the fact that they
often are not able to attend regular fellowship and Bible study.
FRENCH QUEBEC
Another extremely needy
area involving missionary outreach with NCEM is that of
French-speaking First Nations people in Quebec. Presently there is
only one couple ministering in the L'Annonciation area. This couple
is also responsible for establishing a permanent Native Bible camp
ministry.
