Jayne Hanson / 23 Mar 2017 / No Comments » Comments

Bobby Dendy is a worship evangelist based in Phoenix. He travels America to wherever he feels called for his ministry. And, that includes Lake Havasu City.

Dendy’s has been ministering to Havasu’s spring break visitors for nine years in London Bridge Beach with bottled water, friendship and contemporary worship music. During his mission, Dendy partners with Pastor Chris Blythe, of New Hope Calvary Church, and its Pancake Village project. The church has served pancakes and cold bottled water to the spring breakers in Bridgewater Channel for a decade.

Dendy is in Havasu for about 30 days each year. This year, New Hope has added an additional water station on the mainland of Bridgewater Channel. It is located across the Channel from the pancake station’s location.

On Saturday, there were 2,350 bottles of water freely provided to thirsty sun seekers in the Channel. Twenty-seven 20-pound bags of ice were used to keep the water cold.. Pancake Village is open to all, including Havasu locals, winter visitors and spring break enthusiasts. Pancakes are up for grabs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Dendy will be there, as he is halfway through his Havasu spring break mission.
