Ministry Web Sites
Carolyn Ford’s Web Site (Bible Translation) – “In my early teens,” Carolyn relates, “I asked God to give me a job worth spending the time and energy it would require. He answered beyond my wildest dreams. What a privilege to study the language of a people group for whom God has put His own love in my heart, and in the process learn their culture, build deep relationships, and grow in my own understanding of truth. What a privilege to help bring God’s Word to people who have never had it in their heart language”….Click here to read more and visit Carolyn’s Web Site.

The Importance of Wild Salmon (Matthew’s 1st Place, 2000) – Matthew won a Gateway computer with this entry. Wild pacific salmon are very important to people, animals, and forests. Some people make their living fishing for salmon while many animals – such as bears, eagles, and orca whales – depend on salmon for much of their food. Bones or flesh of salmon which are left in the forest by animals provide nutrients to the land, which help make everything grow. Throughout this site you will learn about the life cycle of the wild salmon, the modern challenges they face, and how you can help save them from becoming extinct. If we all do a little bit to help, it will add up to a lot; and then there will be plenty of salmon for all the people, animals, and forests.
