The Bo Prayer Cabin was built in honor of Harlan and Joann Boushek, Grandpa and Grandma Bo, who have exemplified throughout their lives a deep and vibrant faith in God and His many promises. They have experienced the “storms of life”, yet have always demonstrated the calm assurance that God is able to teach and shape our lives through each and every storm. They have taught that after every storm there comes a rainbow. Our prayer is that all who enter may find that same peace and assurance that God is at work in their lives, even in the midst of the storms, no matter how large or small.
The Bo Prayer Cabin, a beautifully handcrafted four season cabin with attached screen porch, is tucked neatly in the woods. It has electric heat, air-conditioning, microwave oven, toaster, refrigerator, coffee maker, dishes, silverware, a sink and water jug for drinking and cooking needs, and miscellaneous utensils. In seeking to make your stay as comfortable as possible we have provided a queen size bed in the loft, table and chairs, rocker, and comfortable fold down double bed/futon.
Both a very modern, well lit, heated pit toilet is near the cabin and a fully modern bathroom with shower is available close by. View a photo tour of our shower house and outhouses.
To access the prayer cabin, a short downhill hike is required.
There is a fire ring area that the Prayer Cabin guests can share and firewood for campfires is available for purchase on site. Check with the office.
Many of the prayer cabins has been provided for by a specific family in honor or memory of a loved one. These families have provided/donated all the necessary funds and input to build the cabin. We work closely with each family to create a cabin fitting to our call and mission. You could also invest in hundreds of people’s lives by funding a cabin. Please contact Randy if interested.
Modern, lighted, heated, no smell outhouses are located close by. Also, there is a fully modern shower house and flush toilets that serves the whole prayer cabins village. See photos of the modern shower house and outhouses.
