Dear TN406 Family,

 

As we approach the end of 2023, we want to express our deepest gratitude

for your unwavering support and commitment to the transformative work

happening within the Church through True North 406 Ministries. Your

prayers and partnership have been instrumental in bringing about healing

and redemption in the lives of many.

Boldly Discipling the Sexually Broken at YWAM Kona


This year, we had the incredible opportunity to share our mission at Youth with a Mission, Kona. In collaboration with our friends Mike and Pat Caven and several others pictured below, we conducted a weeklong seminar for 120 YWAM school leaders. The theme, "Boldly Discipling the Sexually Broken," resonated deeply with these young leaders, encouraging them to turn their gaze upward to God, inward to their hearts, and outward to the brokenhearted.

In Loving Memory of Pat Caven


Sadly, we also share the heartbreaking news of Pat Caven's passing on November 21st. She had just completed a week of teaching at YWAM Amsterdam when she became critically ill. Her legacy lives on, and we are committed to supporting YWAM Kona in establishing a strategic plan for sexual integrity and wholeness.


Living Waters Flourishing in Montana


The vision for a Living Waters ministry in Missoula, spearheaded by Ben Winters, came to fruition this year. After our initial support two years ago, it brings us immense joy to witness the program taking root at Missoula Alliance Church. Ben, alongside our friend Jennifer Thorne, has worked diligently to make this vision a reality. It is a testament to the faithfulness of God's work in restoring lives and communities.

 

Meanwhile, in Kalispell, where our Living Waters ministry is underway, we are thrilled to report significant progress. With over half the journey completed, 16 courageous women and 9 men are bravely delving into the depths of their heartache. Already, we are witnessing the transformative power of God!

 

As we celebrate the impact of Living Waters in Missoula and Kalispell, we anticipate even greater stories of healing, redemption and renewal.

The Journey Course: A Path to Freedom


Both of us are certified leaders of The Journey course, a transformative 5-month journey toward sexual wholeness designed for both men and women. This unique program, weaves together personal narratives, scientific insights, and theological principles, and is a catalyst for profound change, particularly for those seeking freedom from pornography addiction.

 

Annalise and Austin, a young couple we had the privilege to lead through this transformative material, attest to the life-altering impact of The Journey Course. They share, "Through the Journey Course, coupled with other supportive programs, we unearthed our brokenness and found these to be sacred spaces of intimacy with the Lord." Their journey has led them to a place of deeper wholeness, and today, they proudly serve as full-time missionaries.

Your belief in our mission has allowed us to reach many of our goals, touch lives and bring hope where it's needed most. As we reflect on the past year, we can't help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for partners like you who make this journey possible.

Thank you for being an integral part of True North 406 Ministries. May your holiday season be filled with the love and joy of Jesus and the warmth of knowing you've made a lasting impact.

 

With heartfelt appreciation,

 

David & Elizabeth Halliburton,

True North 406 Ministries
