A CRITICAL NEED - A TRUCK At Joy Bible Camp, our ministry relies on two essential trucks. The yellow truck, once our workhorse for dump runs, collecting donations, transporting equipment, and handling countless maintenance tasks, is no longer operational. The white truck, partially functional, struggles to plough the grounds and haul firewood but is no longer roadworthy for transporting supplies.As our staff return to prepare for a group arriving on January 2, 2025, we face an uphill battle. The absence of reliable vehicles has made our expansive tasks significantly harder, leaving us without the tools needed to meet even basic operational demands.While a generous volunteer has worked miracles on our Kubota tractor to keep costs low and equipment moving, it still requires significant repairs. Adding to this burden, staff have been using personal vehicles for critical tasks, an unsustainable solution that recently led to a major mechanical failure in one of these vehicles. This vehicle has sustained us for the past 18 months to haul wood and make dump runs. We cannot continue like this.A dependable truck with ploughing capability is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. It ensures safe roads, warm lodges, and a well-maintained property for all who come to experience this sacred place. Without it, our ability to serve guests and maintain camp operations is severely compromised.If you’ve ever driven into camp on freshly ploughed roads, warmed your hands by a fire fueled by camp-cut wood, or witnessed the care taken to maintain this sacred place, you’ve seen firsthand the indispensable role this truck plays.We humbly ask for your prayers for God’s provision. If you feel led, we invite you to be part of the solution. Whether through a donation, interest-free terms, contributing to the cost of a plough attachment, or connecting us to a viable solution, your support could transform this challenge into an opportunity for God’s faithfulness to shine.You our community have been so faithful to respond to our endless requests for support. Together we’ve weathered countless storms—both literal and figurative.  Thank you for standing with us through every season. Your generosity sustains this ministry where lives are transformed, faith is nurtured, and God’s love is made tangible. If you’d like to discuss how you can help, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Together, we can overcome this challenge and ensure Joy Bible Camp continues to be a place of renewal and hope.
