Quick note about Sunday

We had a great time yesterday connecting with friends at Cremona Country Fellowship, about an hour north of where we currently live in Calgary. The congregation there has been such an encouragement to us. We shared a little about our ministry in the service (for the first time, really, although I’ve spoken there I think 3 times before this), and I shared the message. And they surprised us with a generous gift for our Outgoing Funds.

It’s amazing how the Lord continues to provide. Back in May we wrote in our newsletter that we still needed about CA$23,600 – now that number is down to about CA$10,000 (that’s one-time expenses). The Lord also provided us with a van since that newsletter. So many people have been such a tremendous help and encouragement in so many ways. I won’t deny that the last 2-3 months have been some of the hardest in our lives for various reasons. But in the midst of it all, God has provided and confirmed His love and His leading. Times of fellowship and worship like we had on Sunday just remind us to pause and praise Him, because it’s easy to forget to praise Him all the time as we should.
