Lyle & Shirley Bearss, Alvwood, MN

Alvwood is a northern Minnesota township in the middle of the Chippewa National Forest, at the headwaters of the Mississippi River. We are one hour northwest of Bemidji. Alvwood is a fishing and tourist location for people from the Twin Cities and southern Minnesota, so our lakes have many cabins. Forestry and cattle are also a big part of our community.

PRAYER REQUESTS: 

  1. Please pray for our younger men to step up to leadership responsibilities.
  2. Please pray for our outreach into our three surrounding communities.
  3. Pray for our church to continue to develop a loving heart to serve these communities in Christ’s name.
