We would love to see you if you’re in the area! Here’s our tentative schedule:
Lord willing I’ll give a report on the ministry in Mexico, and share from God’s Word. Hope you can join us!
A heads up to all our friends in Sudbury! Or to those who are just curious! —-
Lord willing we’ll be in Sudbury on Sunday, at Lansing Avenue Baptist Chapel. The service is at 10am, and you can find the other details on their website.
I’ll be sharing a few glimpses about what has been going on for the past few years in Mexico, and also sharing a message from God’s Word which I hope you’ll find super helpful.
After the service we’ll be available for a Q&A time, which will include a discussion of how the COVID-19 situation has affected our ministry.
Hope we can see you there!
We’ve been enjoying our time in Sudbury and area, catching up with old friends and making some new ones. Thanks so much for those who prayed for our ministry over the weekend as well. And thanks to those here who have been such a blessing!
We had a great turn-out for Where did the Bible Come From? and enjoyed our time on Sunday morning.
We have another day here and then we start heading north again. On Friday we’ll be on the Polar Bear Express train (yes, that’s what it’s called) heading up to Moosonee.
We appreciate your continued prayers as we serve in Moosonee – there are some interesting ministry opportunities in the area for the weekend and next week, so we’ll see what happens!
Hannah and Nathanael have been getting to know a good northern tradition – kayaking. Here’s proof…
Today we’ll be getting ready to head up to Sudbury (tomorrow)! We’re looking forward to the weekend, and hope lots of people from the area will be able to join us.

Where did the Bible come from? On Friday (May 23) from 7pm-9pm and on Saturday (May 24) 9am-12pm, come and investigate important questions such as If the Bible was copied so many times, how do we know what the original said? Why are some Bibles bigger than others? Who wrote the Bible (and how do we know)? What about the Dead Sea Scrolls? Who decided which books would be a part of the Bible (and why)? What about the “Lost Gospels”? … and much more!
We’ll also be sharing on Sunday morning about Mexico, and I’ll be preaching. All these events will be at Lansing Avenue Baptist Chapel in Sudbury Ontario.
There are two events on Facebook for the seminar – Friday night here and Saturday morning here (these are part 1 and part 2). Invite your friends!
We will be doing the same seminar in Cochrane, Ontario the week after.
Hi everyone! I haven’t had a lot of computer time lately, and that situation is probably going to continue at least for a couple of weeks. But I wanted to at least stop by and give you a quick update to let you know what’s going on.
 Hannah and Nathanael picked blueberries in Sudbury. Yum. |
I think I talked to you last from the train from Moosonee to Cochrane. Well, we had a good but brief visit with some friends in Cochrane, then we headed south to Sudbury and Peterborough.
We enjoyed reconnecting with friends in both places, and had lots of fun times too – I’ll try to get some pictures and video up later. On Sunday we shared at Lansing Avenue Baptist Chapel in Sudbury. We’re thankful for these churches and individuals who have such a big part in the ministry in Mexico.
So now we’re in Mount Forest, and will be all over southern Ontario over the next little while. Starting on Saturday, though, we’re looking forward to a much needed week of holidays before diving back into ministry again.
So, that’s the short story! Everyone’s health is better – you may remember that the kids had a little 24 hour flu or something back in Moosonee, and they’ve had a bit of an ongoing cough, but they’re a lot better overall. I still have a nasty cough, but I think I turned the corner toward better health on Sunday.
So God has been good, and it’s been great telling people a little about what He’s doing in Mexico!
Now I’ve got some errands to do so I’d better run. Talk to you later!
For those of you who want to see us while we’re in Ontario, I wanted to keep you up to date with our schedule. Below you’ll see the events we have booked, and some of the general locations we’ll be in. I hope we can see many of you at these events – please contact the churches for more information!
