Praises:
1. We praise the Lord for a staff and board of directors who desire to see many lives touched by God at Spruce Lake.
2. Praise God the new Youth Ministry Center is nearly closed in so we can continue working inside over winter. See the live progress at www.sprucelake.org 3. We are very grateful for the year end gifts received towards the $500K challenge match to complete the new building debt free.
4. So far over 100 more youth have registered this year than last year for the four extra weekends of youth blasts we added this winter/spring of 2018, providing us with the opportunity to point them to Christ.
5. We strive to continue to improve the ministry. Recent renovations include the last six rooms (first six rooms were completed last winter) and the hallway in Homestead. In the near future the water temperature fluctuation in the campground bath house showers will be remedied.
6. We are thanking the Lord that nearly 380 men are already registered for the January 11-12th Men's Retreat.
7. Spruce Lake began in 1963 and we give God the praise, honor and glory that we were able to serve more people in 2017 than any previous year of ministry.
8. We praise God for His many blessings over the past year and thank you so much for the finances you invested so the 499-acre mountain is now owned by Spruce Lake debt free.
