We were stopping by my nephew Jevon’s school to see a (very cool) project that he had been working on. We were walking through the halls when another student asked Jevon if we were all his family. Hearing an affirmative, she swore in amazement.
Seriously, girl? In Mexico, we bring more family members just to go grocery shopping.
Well, we’re obviously not in Mexico anymore.
So just a week in, we’re still adjusting to life here. The way our schedule here works, the very beginning and very end of the trip are probably the busiest, so we’ve hit the ground running. Or, I should say, sprinting.
We very much enjoyed our time at First Evangelical Free Church, and then at Prairie Tabernacle, meeting a few new friends and reconnecting with old friends. We’ve also had business to take care of, sometimes expected and sometimes unexpected.
We had a tour of Hannah’s new school and dorm this week, which was pretty cool.
We’re gearing up now for the Where did the Bible Come From? seminar on Friday and Saturday. By the way, there is still time to register (until 7pm tonight) if you’re in the area! We really want to fill it up, and there’s still space left. Just click the link above. Invite your friends!
On Sunday we’ll be at the South Calgary Chinese Evangelical Free Church, before ending our first very quick visit to Calgary. We’ll be back later in the summer.
Well, gotta run!
Hannah and Nathanael try a new game with their cousins.

For those of you in the Calgary area, I want to make sure you know where we’ll be and when this month. Plus, you can click the graphics below for a larger version to share on social media or in an email if you’d like.
☞ First of all, we’re hoping that as many of you as possible can come to the Where did the Bible Come From? seminar. We really want to pack this seminar full because I think it will be very useful to you, both personally and as you share with others. It’s a very interactive and practical seminar.
So please come and invite your family and friends!
You do need to register ahead of time (but it is 100% free!). The link is on the graphic, but I’ll include a live link here. You have to register for both days separately, which are the evening of Friday the 15th and Saturday the 16th morning/early afternoon. Here you go: Register for Where did the Bible Come from?
Don’t miss it – and be sure to share the graphic!
Also, we’ll be giving a Mexico Report and in some cases preaching on the 10th and 17th:

At SCCEFC I’m sharing in all three services, but only preaching in the Cantonese and Mandarin services.
Finally, if you’re in the Three Hills area you can come for a Mexico Report, and a time of prayer:
For a complete schedule, updated as I have information, go here. Hope to see you soon!
Just before we moved out of our house in Cuernavaca, I took a panoramic shot of from the roof. The service I used is no longer available, so I found a new one so you can see it. It’s probably best if you go “full screen” on this one. You can also “hide controls” so you don’t have all the tech-clutter in your way.
Yesterday we enjoyed a brief Bible study (and a little party! – because it’s our last study for a while) with some friends in Las Palmas. We talked about Romans 12:1-2 (cool passage – I know it’s a familiar one, but always worth another look), and some other interesting topics. 🙂
Reflection Selfie at Bible StudyThen we headed up to the church in Jesús MarÃa (yes, it’s literally up), where the youth group there and some other friends had a goodbye party for Hannah. Everyone had a chance to ask Hannah some questions, we prayed for her, and then we chatted over hot dogs for a while. 🙂 Always interesting conversations with that group too!
