Trout Lake U.S. Retreat 2008 Photos

This past weekend we held our 2nd annual Lahash U.S. Retreat. It was an exciting moment for our team as both Dax (from Houston) and Eric (from New Mexico) traveled up to be with us as well.

During the weekend we did get to enjoy some of the beautiful Northwest. Here Clark and Joel are checking out Langfield falls.


We had some good sessions during the day on Saturday and Sunday. There was a combination of advocates, travelers, staff, and board members present.

New Website Launched!

Lahash is pleased to introduce our new website! Initially designed by Nate Grubbs, this puppy has been in holding pattern for too long to disclose - but finally it has made it to the web. Thanks to Nate for the wonderful design, and to all the contributors. There's a great new amount of information to peruse, so click on in!

Berean Team holds a Garage sale

The Berean Baptist team (Rita, Lewis, and Teresa) hosted a garage sale on Saturday - raising $1100 for their upcoming trip to Sudan and Uganda. The group will travel under the direction of Leisha and Edwin during the last part of October 2008.

Thanks to Camp Eagle!

We want to say "Thank you!" to the kids and staff at Camp Eagle during this last summer. Camp Eagle is a youth camp in Texas that has partnered with Lahash in the past. During the summer camp season of 2008, the youth agreed to give up one meal each week (of the normal Camp cuisine) and eat rice or go without a meal. The camp then gave all of the proceeds of this to Lahash. The project ended up raising over $3500! This gift will primarily go to feeding the kids at Amazing Grace orphanage this next year.
