WHY
WE'RE HERE Many people have asked why we started Noah's Ark Park. Well,
let me try to explain.......
Sixteen years ago we had a grandson that was born autistic , and he has
become so priceless to my wife Wannetta and myself, that we wanted to do
something for others who are afflicted with this disease. Many people do not
realize that one out of 160 children are born with autism. We here at Noah's Ark
Park offer all the handicap individuals that come out to enjoy all of the events that take place here, entertainment and admission Free of charge. Our funds now help support over 600 handicap citizens. We would like to see that number increase and expand our efforts nationwide.
Here at Noah's Ark Park and WCTP FM radio want the word to go over the air
waves, not only that the gift of Our Heavenly Father is the gift of His Son and
our Lord Jesus Christ, and that ALL people can come to know him personally. But we especially want it to be heard that ALL children, ALL people that God has given to us, have a safe haven to come to and really enjoy themselves, be themselves and know that Jesus loves them for who they are.
We ask for your donations to help us support this cause, and help us in our mission to provide a wholesome place for people to bring their children for a day of fun, free from the everyday bustle and stress of the average day.
For we give OUR LORD THE GLORY AND THE PRAISE..
HOW WE GOT HERE
In 1990 I, Pastor Duane and my wife Wannetta purchased a 120 acre parcel of land
in Huron County Michigan, with it came a 22 acre lake , the setting of the lake
is nestled around by trees of nature and a road that completely edges the
lake for a serene scenic view.
The church was the first of many buildings, which was built in 1992, It can best be explained through an article that written in the Huron Tribune paper:
"looking for a place to take a grand child or a young friend to have a good
wholesome, inexpensive day of fun? You need to look no further than Huron
County, on Farver Road near Owendale Michigan.
There in the middle of almost nowhere, is Noah's Ark Park, a place where kids
and adults can have fun, enjoy nature and each other, while being not so-subtly
reminded that Christ still lives, and is part of life. The Ark greets it's
quests as they turn into the driveway. It is actually part of the exhibit
building allowing people to walk through it and gaze at the animated lifelike
animals, while Noah catches a few winks in his bunk. The main part of the
building has life size tableaux depicting scenes from the Bible.
The Bible based Noah's Ark park was built from the proceeds Pastor Plonta
received from his invention "Realistic Riser" a unique and affordable
toilet seat lift kit. He came up with this miraculous idea one day when he was
investigating his church's broken vanity. People were using the vanity to
support themselves as they were rising from the toilet. After realizing his duty
to help his elderly and handicapped parishioners, Plonta devised the
Realistic Riser. A riser that is easy to install and can go
anywhere with you."
Three special blocks attach to your existing toilet seat with
a fourth block specially made to fit under the back of your toilet seat using
the custom bolts and nuts to reattach the seat with the lift kit. This unique
kit can be used with an elongated or a standard seat. Seat bolts must be un
attached to the seat (removable) for the use of the elongated bolts that are necessary
with the use of the riser. You can purchase the "Realistic Riser"
directly from us for a mere $19.95 plus shipping.
Pastor Plonta also developed a dunk tank that carries a patent, which is sold
all over the world.
WHAT WE HAVE TO OFFER
the park also has paddle boats, a train that takes visitors on a 25 minute
ride around the grounds and the lake, and even an animated gospel singing bears
show. Praying chapel, The 10 commandments', The Lords tomb, 18 hole miniature
golf course and several rides inside. Back outside there are paved walks that
lead you to where the Lion & the Lamb gospel singers perform from different
churches in the surrounding areas.
