Tickets: $20.00 (Includes Dinner, Dessert, cold and hot beverages)
Tickets can be purchased at Thunder Bay Christian Fellowship at 515 N. Syndicate Ave. or by calling 622-1030.
November 25th: 6:30-10 p.m.: Musical Cafe : Come out and relax as you listen to wonderful local musicians. Enjoy a dessert and either tea/coffee/juice. If you wish to perform a few songs, please call 622-1030. Tickets will be for sale in October.
We are still looking for some people that can help sew up some bags for the "Bags of hope" we are bringing. Please call the church at 622-1030 if you can help. They are very easy to make.
Once again, Thank-you to everyone for helping out so far. I am so happy so many people are excited about this trip. God truly bless you.
In May 2006, I knew that I had to go to Africa to help the children there. I started planning, convinced my parents and have now been to Malawi twice and going again next week!

Hello from Jaako
I just want to let you know how I'm feeling right now. I'm feeling kinda stressed in trying to organize things. I can't wait to see the kids in Malawi and help them. I'm really excited about the trip and I just can't wait. Most kids in Malawi have lost one or both of their parents to aids, they really need our help. I'd love for you guys to pray for me and for all those children. I have about $3000.00 raised right now. Thank-you for your support. God Bless you.

Hope for Malawi
Hi, My name is Jaako and I am going to Malawi, Africa in January 2007.
In May 2006 while I was praying, God told me to go to Africa to tell the kids about His love, to bring them much needed supplies and money. I will be bringing them at least 1,000 "Bags of Hope" as well. They are ziploc bags filled with small items such as: small bouncy balls, crayons or short pencil crayons, small note pads, socks, jewellery, Hot Wheel Cars, Hard candy ect. It's like the Christmas Shoe Boxes but on a smaller scale. I want to give a bag to each child that I meet. A friend named Rita (along with others) is sewing up little bags that they can go into.
Please pray for me. The Children in Malawi are very poor and have lost either one or both parents to aids. Please consider donating to these kids.
