                                            Mens' & Boys' Shop



                                            Most lost Native men won't go to church.
                                            But they sure will go to a subsistence shop.
                                            It's at this shop where men and boys can work on their necessary subsistence vehicles and tools:
                                            4-wheelers & trailers
                                            snowmachines & sleds
                                            ulus and harpoons
                                            traps and snowshoes
                                            boats and motors

                                            They can also process the fish and game that they catch:
                                            seals, caribou, moose, salmon, foxes, mink, beaver, muskrat, otter, weasels, Arctic fox, Dall sheep, shee-fish, whitefish, beluga...etc.

                                            They can cut their meat into soup chunks, steak, stew meat...etc.  They can grind their moose meat and use it for tacos, spaghetti, meatloaf, burgers...etc.

                                            In the old days, Eskimo men would teach the boys in a special sod-house called a "Qargi".  However, due to new westernized housing and such, there is NO place for the young boys and men to get together.  



                                            Once we get a shop built, we'll man it with Christian men throughout the week.  The lost Native men and boys will come and use the shop and as the Holy Spirit leads...our men will share their testimony and Christ with them.

                                            We see men getting saved right there next to their snowmachines, or right there at the meat-cutting table...


                                            We'll also have "Knowing Christ" Bible studies as well as discipleship studies upstairs in the loft throughout the week.

                                            This ministry has a TON of potential.   If we can reach the men, the dads, there's a 75% chance we'll win the whole family to the Lord.

                                            NEEDS:
                                            A shop building
                                            various meat processing equipment (meat bandsaws, heavy-duty meat grinders..etc.)
                                            various power tools (table saw, band saw, grinder, radial saw, drill press...etc.)
                                            various tools (wrenches, screwdrivers, ratchets, hammers, saws, etc.)
