Welcome to My Camp
"Hello, I'm MonteChurch and welcome to my camp."
With these words of welcome, MonteChurch, Northwest and Canada Native Ministries director and Native storyteller, begins a new program about our wonderful Native American Culture.
The Native New Day series of video Bible studies is Created, written, and hosted by Native Americans, for Native Americans; this video series shows how we are all ‘God’s Children,’ says Mohican Native and host Monte Church.
Filmed in nature, these videos cover topics found in the "Book of Heaven," answering questions on spiritual matters often asked by Native peoples.
"Nature is the second book of God's love and caring," says Carlos Pardeiro, owner of the NC Production Company and series producer, "and most humans on Earth are moved by various aspects of nature, whether it is a beautiful starry night, the power of the ocean, the beauty of a sunrise or the flight of an eagle. All these things become a bridge between humanity and divinity. Using the object lessons we derive from nature brings us to the knowledge of a loving, caring God."
The concept for the Native New Day video series came to Monte when he visited an isolated village near Inuvik in the Northwest Territories of Canada more than a decade ago. While walking through the village, he was stopped by people asking him for Christian videos. He did not have any but his mind started spinning and the idea was born.
Because he is a Native American of Mohican decent, Monte has a tremendous burden to reach out to Native people. He says, "We have learned to understand the Native mind. We have learned what it takes to get close to Native people and gain their trust and now these videos are a powerful tool that is helping us to reach them spiritually."
Another tool that works hand in glove with the video is the Native New Day Bible correspondence course. The topics in both the lessons and videos cover the basic teachings of the Bible and they are evangelism presented in a low-key approach. They are simple and Native friendly. The programs are not designed to give all of the details of any particular doctrines, but are a bridge between those who do not know God and His Word and those who have become a part of it. (so ANY denomination of Native or non-Native Americans, should welcome this wonderful approach and series)
"There are a lot of elements that go into winning a person and the most effective way these videos and lessons are used is by a member giving the studies. It all has to work together. The bottom line is that nothing gets done in this work unless it's a one-on-one situation," says Monte.
Brenda Rau, a dental hygienist in Dillingham, Alaska, and her husband Rod who teaches fifth- through eighth-grade in the church school, fly their airplane to Ekwok every weekend for church. Ekwok is a little Native village of about 70 permanent residents located on the NushagakRiver about a 25-minute flight from Dillingham.
"We use the Native New Day DVDs and they are awesome—so appropriate for the village," she says. "It is what they can relate to, and we truly enjoy using them. We have not been able to figure out their response to the videos because the people are so non-verbal but they keep coming to see them."
"It is hard when you add this mission project to your life. Everyone is busy, but we want to give; we want to share the Gospel and the Lord gives us the energy. We pray that everyone will have a mission spirit."
"All of the Native people who have been baptized have come into contact, one way or another [whether it is the inception of their interest or the consummation] with these videos," Monte says. "They are a tool that the people who work in Native Ministries needed and they use them heavily. These videos have been a very effective vehicle."

Native New Day receives Emmy nomination:
Native New Day TV Series
Receives Emmy Nomination
"The Great Spirit” segment from the Native New Day television series was recognized with an Emmy Award nomination by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, Mid-America chapter, on Sept. 21, 2006. The Native New Day series, hosted by storyteller Monte Church of the Mohican tribe and North Pacific Union Conference/Canada Native Ministries director, is dedicated to bringing hope and dignity to all Native Peoples in a simple, yet beautiful way through the gospel message of Jesus Christ.
The Emmy Awards recognize excellence within various areas of the television industry and are a symbol of peer recognition from the members of the academy. While “The Great Spirit” segment did not win the coveted Emmy, “it was a great honor to be nominated,” said Church.
“These awards reflect a joint effort of a team of dedicated people working together to accomplish a service to Native Peoples," said Carlos Pardeiro, producer/director of the series. "We thank God for the blessings He continues to bestow on the Native New Day TV series not only by the awards received, but by the lives that have been touched as a result of Monte Church’s moving presentations."

That is a question we get asked quite a bit in one form or another: why does it matter where we came from? Our answer is: it is of great significance. If we were created by purposeless evolution then we are not answerable to anybody. In this case the Bible would only be of sentimental value. However if God created us, then he has the final say on every issue.
If the Bible is true then how we live in this life determines how we will spend eternity. In this case there is nothing more important than the message of the Bible. Creation is important because, if the Bible gives an accurate description of our past then it is worth taking seriously when it speaks about our future. Below you can see a brief outline of the central message of the Bible:
