2022 Improvement Projects

Faith Electric LLC

Jeff & Marcia Hicks with Faith Electric LLC in Alabama came this summer to light up our lives! They worked tirelessly on 12 of our 13 buildings replacing our old light bulbs with new LED's. They fixed and upgraded to made us shine around here. Some nights they worked past 10:00 pm.

You could also catch them cooking a meal for all of us. Marcia cleaned in buildings and swept out the entire shop while her husband worked on upgrading some of our old electrical issues. What a Team! Thank you, Jeff and Marcia! What a gift you each are to the Ministry Center!

Chaplains from Washington

Below is a group of disaster relief chaplains from Edmonds, Washington: Greg & Val, Dan & Kris's, Les & Lynn, Mike, Andrae, Rebecca, and Shad.

They worked for two weeks at Four Winds on many projects including: scraping and painting fences and the Chapel, weeding, and repairs. The ladies also cleaned our cabins and dorms like never before! Thank you all so much!!!

During their stay, a violent windstorm caused a tree to fall on our house - there was no damage (thank you, Jesus!). Within two hours the whole mess was cleaned up! Thank you, everyone!

All new roofs on our three cabins! Meanwhile, the gals cleaned of them:

So much needed to be scraped and painted this time. Now it’s all done!
Helping prepare for camp, including weed removal…there was a ton of THAT!

Pathway to the Cross

Pastor Mike, grandson Kamden, Keith, and Vernon cleared the path up to the cross, which gets overgrown with weeds over the winter and spring. Vernon did more weeding around Four Winds than anyone we can remember - thanks, Vernon!

2021 Improvement Projects

October 2021 - Pastor Wayne and Pastor Jeremy and crew from Mobile, Alberta came to Four Winds to install some much needed cupboards and countertops in our kitchen. Their efforts greatly improved and expanded our workspace! Our local dentist office remodeled their building, and they generously donated the cupboards. Some of the men also replaced all of our old light bulbs with bright, new LED bulbs. What a difference!

Thank you guys for all you did! We greatly appreciate everything!

2020 Improvement Projects

Pastor Jeremy and his missions team from Destination Church in Mobile, Alberta came to clean, paint, repair, and upgrade the shop which holds our food bank and donations for reservation deliveries! They are returning next year to sponsor and lead a Native American Youth Camp. A team of men will come to work on maintenance, repairs, and upgrades.

Thank you Pastor Jeremy and team! We appreciate all the hard work and the time of fellowship!


Thanks to Pastor Chad and Melissa and their missions team from LIFEchurch in Easley, South Carolina! They helped us out for a few days at our church and they helped to make our property there look so nice! We shared them with the church in Billings where they conducted a three-day Vacation Bible School!

Many thanks for all you did while you were in Montana!
