Centershot Ministry Takes Off

Just like the Hunter Safety program that God provided for us as an opportunity to reach out, Centershot Ministry was laid on the heart of Chris Crum.

He spoke to our group and then we prayed for the resources for the training and supplies and the Lord delivered everything, including a full class.

A group went to West Virginia for training and they have begun the ministry which includes Bible study and archery instruction.

Here is an update:

Well, after October 8^th the Centershot Class will be halfway over. It has been great seeing God put this whole thing together and we are looking forward to our next class.

Here is Chris Crum showing the correct nock position.

After only three days of class, we have some real sharp shooters.

Mike Hayes is watching Dirk Steckmann prepare to stick the bullseye.

From left to right Daniel Wood, Maggie Cooley, and Caroline Cearley are emptying their quivers as they practice the 11 steps to archery success.

Yes, God has been good to our fledgling group, but we give him the glory and hope to reach new souls and new hunters.

Colonial Outdoors Holds It's First Hunter Safety Course

Part of our mission at Colonial Outdoors Ministry is to find a way to reach out to others who love the outdoors. God has provided the ability for Colonial to be able to host the Hunter Safety Course at our facility.

Later, we will be able take classes to become instructors as part of the NC Wildlife program.
