YWAM HOCKEY- Update
November, 2008

FIRST CAMP IN ALASKA!
After 2 years of talks - the camp took place in September ...
YWAM Hockey was pleased to partner
with YWAM Arctic Mercy for our first ever
camp in Alaska. Glen took a small team -
Brian, Mackenzie and our son Jesse - to the
the beautiful town of Homer, Alaska for the 4
day Mini-camp. What they lacked in hockey
knowledge and experience, the Homer team
made up for with enthusiasm and hard work
making it an excellent first camp in the
community, On the last day, 3 players from
the professional ECHL team in Anchorage, the
Alaska Aces, joined our team on the ice.
Overall, the hockey camp, with a focus on
Jesus, was very well received by campers and
their parents alike. Our boys were excited to
enjoy the “YWAM base cuisine” which
consisted of lots of elk and halibut. And were
treated to a 12 hour! fishing expedition We
are very excited to be invited back next year.

Even though we do not have a DTS
this fall ....
We are finding ourselves very busy finishing
up all the detail work of our summer camps and
preparing for near future outreach opportunities.
As we take the time to reflect on the summer,
we are still in awe at what God did in and thru
the 7 hockey camps YWAM Hockey took part in.
Now, Glen is taking care of business in the
admin dept.: finalizing - last summer’s camps
and planning -next summer’s camps, Hockey Summer
of Service program, and our winter/spring
promotional strategy. He is also sitting on the
2010 Olympic Sports Initiative Group Committee
- designing hockey outreach events as part of
More Than Gold.
Lorrain is also finishing up Hockey Camps
2008 projects. Additionally, she is volunteer
teaching English once a week to new Canadians
and taking a entry level Mandarin class. She took

a TESOL weekend seminar Oct 24 &
25 at Trinity Western and was a wee bit intimidated
at the prospect of returning to the classroom
after all these years. She LOVES her
involvement in her classes and looks forward to
perhaps some teaching English opportunities in
upcoming outreaches in Jan. An issue very
much on her heart is the Human Trafficking
atrocity that is taking place in the world today.
Her commitment to this is to pray and hopefully
help others become more aware. Perhaps
opportunities will arise to become more
involved. Please check out this website

We are preparing for a hockey outreach in
Jan/Feb 09 in East Asia. There may be
possibility to visit 3 countries. We are praying for
God’s perfect timing and opportunity.
Our staff - Krista and Brian - are currently
working with YWAM Vancouver, staffing their
DTS. Other commitments this fall included a
YWAM Missions Conference - Oct 27-31st, in
Kelowna. We were asked to lead a workshop.
We visited family in Campbell River in early November,
where we did our YWAM Hockey
ministry update night on November 10th

at the Campbell River Baptist Church.

Thank you for your continued interest and
support in our ministry and in our lives. We pray
God will richly bless you as you continue to seek
Him and invest in His kingdom. May He reveal
Himself to you in a fresh way this week!

With love,
Glen and Lorrain
