The lodge roof truss system including the dormers are ready for sheeting and then the shingles will be back on and we will be back on schedule from where we were back on July 18-2011. God has been so faithful as we seek Him first in all we do, say and think. Discouragement can wait at every door except the ones he waits to walk with us through.
Our weekend was a blessed and very prosperous as many volunteers arrived from our home church LGF, as well as many from as far as Brandon Manitoba and Regina.
The rafters are back up and walls secured all done under the blessed peace of the Holy Spirit. No wonder when God builds there is no need for the bondage of dept. When we put our hands to the plow and not look back the vision appears, PTL from whom all blessings flow.
Thanks to the many that worked hard to feed us all day and kept us all fed and watered.
Thanks so much for all the equipment that was delivered by Action towing and lent by the Willis family.
We have been blessed with a new to us golf cart from Jim and Jean so Diane can get to the garden a bit faster Thank you so much
Everyone's work will be put through the fire... 1 Corinthians 3:13
One day an ox said to the mule, "Let's pretend to be sick." The mule said, No, we need to get this work done that has been put before us. "The ox feigned to be sick." and the farmer believed him and brought him fresh hay. When the mule came in from ploughing, the ox asked how things went and the mule said, All right. The ox asked " What did the farmer say about me? The mule replied nothing," the next day the ox pretended to be ill again. When the mule came home the ox asked, "How did it go? The mule said alright, and the ox felt that there would soon be a better and easier job for him, so he would just wait on the master. After a week of this, the ox asked, Did the farmer say anything about me today? The mule replied, Well he said nothing to me personally, but he stopped and had a long talk with the butcher!
Understand this we were born to fulfill a divine purpose and when we accept Jesus as our Lord and saviour we also accept that important responsibility seriously, and when you don't there are consequences, both here and in eternity. Paul focused on his calling and was able to say "I have finished the race 2Tim 4:7. Notice Paul didn't sit around and do nothing expecting others to take care of him and waiting on a purpose that he felt suited him best, but as a man of God he never disappointed his master or wondered what he was supposed to be doing or where or when his calling would come. Don't kid yourself we will all answer for our selfishness and lack of will to do all and everything to the glory of God. So if we chose apathy in our lives, don't be surprised that the doors will stop opening and the the butcher may be consulted.

The Battle River Ranch Camp is a one of a kind entry level trades and life skills opportunity facility. Offering an option to anyone that has been searching for an opportunity and is serious about finding out their area of strength and work place career possibilities.
Our hope and prayer is to let as many of you know about the ranch as possible so that the hope it will bring, the lives it will change and the encouragement it will provide can start as soon as possible.
The ranch will be a one of a kind facility and will offer an option to many like no other. When God has a plan and like our friends Mike and Pastor Lyle wisely told us just keep your focus and don't let the distractions pull you away from God's purpose.
Thank you once again for taking the time to view our blog. The Battle River Ranch Camp is a non profit organization that is focused on developing trades, life skills and training opportunities for men and women that are searching and find it difficult to get the opportunities needed to develop a productive and positive life skill.
Many men and women today have no idea about their future or what they could be good at and to how find out their possible skill area or level. We are a faith based and mentor based training facility and our hope is with the help of anyone that has a heart for helping so many to give each person that comes to the ranch an opportunity to find the skills they were created for.
Harold and Diane Stephan left a life filled with addictions and bad choices. Their journey has taken them through different twelve step programs and life recovery through a relationship and healing process with Jesus Christ. If it were not for caring people in their lives that never gave up on them or thought they were a hopeless cause they too would still be lost.
