Message from Bob & Bette Sue MacIsaac - Lithuania

Dear Friends,

June is here! We are already experiencing longer days with the sun rising around 4 am and getting dark after 10 pm. It is so nice to have warmer weather again.

The construction team from Ohio and Pennsylvania worked hard at camp. They finished the sewage system, built foundations for cabins, and other jobs that needed completed on the kitchen/cafeteria roof.

This month a team from El Paso, Texas will arrive June 15th to work on the kitchen/cafeteria. Please keep the workers in prayer as they concentrate to get as much done as possible in their time here.

The camp loan balance is now at $37,581.21. Seems like a lot more to pay off but we are very thankful for a lower balance and know that God will provide what is needed. Thank you for praying for this need and giving as you can.

You can check out our blog by clicking here.

The camp season will begin in June. Please be in prayer for all the campers and churches using the campgrounds. We want the presence of the Holy Spirit to minister to everyone that comes.

Have a wonderful day! We appreciate each one of you!!!!!!

God bless!

Bob and Bette Sue

Construction Teams - Needed in Argentina

Dear friends,

We believe that God is challenging us to enter a new phase in King’s Castle. As far as we know, there is no Master’s Commission in Argentina and we believe that God is laying on our hearts to begin one. It will be named, Castilleros Extremos, (Extreme Castle ministers) and will help high school graduates develop character, self discipline, Biblical studies as well as get a hands-on view of ministry. We are setting a goal to begin in March 2010.

Between now and then, we need to see some major changes happen to our building. The building is ours, not rented, thanks to the efforts of Martha Lesperance, the former Castle director. So we are free to remodel it in order to best utilize its spacious interior. We need to build a couple of dorm rooms, a small apartment, and bathrooms. We will work in steps, as help and finances come in. We already have (most of) a kitchen… only lacking sink, counter and cabinets, so we are already on our way. J

Meanwhile, we will continue evangelizing, leading training seminars for both leaders and teens, and traveling to new areas to plant Castle ministry. Please pray about bringing (or sending) a construction team from your church to help us. We aren’t going to be able to take any evangelism teams until we get our building usable. Once we get some rooms built and bunk beds put into them, we’ll be able to house teams from the States much more economically. ( And, our Castilleros Extremos will be available to accompany evangelism teams.) But first, we desperately need construction teams coming with money to buy the materials they will need for that week. For those of you that can’t come, please pray with us that God’s dreams for Castilleros Extremos will come to pass for we have a lot of details to work out in the next 9 months.

Many blessings,

Kim and Shari Babcock
