February 2003: Eastern Arctic Bible Conference in Puvirnituq,
Ian spent nearly a week attending the Eastern Arctic Bible Conference in the small community of PUVIRNITUQ on the East coast of Hudson Bay from February 6th to 11th. Inuit from around the Canadian Arctic and a few “Southerns” from Ontario, Quebec and Manitoba along with several others from overseas attended and were blessed by Praise and Worship, Bible Teaching, Testimonials and Fellowship. Among those ministering were Josh & Janet Mills of New Wine International out of London, Ontario and Dave and Joan Ellyatt of Arctic Missions Outreach also from London.
En route to and from Puvirnituq, Ian stayed overnight with Paul and Eva Lapage (paulevakuujjuaq@hotmail.com) in Kuujjuaq. They have a small house church ministering to several local people as well as to any saints passing through Kuujjuaq.
Here are a few photos from that trip.

This is called “county food” because I loved the children …
It is eaten in the country!
