A Note from the Director

Quite possibly the oldest buildings on Eagle’s Nest property is the “log cabin”. Almost every previous Director at Eagle’s Nest has at some point lived in this building. In 2012 this building began to have issues with mice and mold to the point where it was not livable. In 2013 a new 20 wide mobile home was purchased and set up adjacent to this log cabin. Since then this dwelling has sat empty. Over the last 3 years that we have lived here I have often wondered if it would be possible to make this place livable again. Since we have not needed it up to this point it has sat vacant. As the need for more staff members here at Eagle’s Nest arose, so did my thoughts on where these people would live. Last year (2019) we hired someone for the summer months for the first time. Housing was an issue right away and we could have put this place to use.

​

We are actively looking for someone to come and join us in order to improve our summer camp program and explore more areas of ministry. If we can get this cabin ready to be lived in it would be a huge hurdle overcome. For a relatively low cost we could revive this beautiful cabin so that it could be utilized for the glory of God! In January of 2020 the board of directors approved the restoration of this building and set a budget of $25,000.00.  I am looking for contractors who would be willing to do a particular project and people willing to help with labour as well as donations of materials. My prayer is that God would use you in whatever capacity He has gifted you with for His glory. 

God Bless
