Between Ontario and Ontario

We’ve enjoyed some great times of ministry and blessing over the past few weeks. Now we’re going to be taking a little time to spend with family, and to deal with some important errands (things like homeschool organizing, doctor’s appointments, etc).

We’ll be returning to Southern Ontario in about three and a half weeks, and then we’ll start the drive back to Mexico.

Just wanted to check in to let you know we’re still moving along (and to share with you a little Ontario scenery)! 🙂 Thanks so much for your prayers!

(By the way, I do have a few pictures from the first few weeks of our trip in our photo gallery – use the links at the top of our blog to check them out!)

Upcoming Weekend in Cochrane

Jim Prayer and Praise 0

So – next on the agenda – Cochrane Ontario!

(On a side note, in case you’re wondering, Cochrane Alberta came first, and Cochrane Ontario came second, surprisingly enough. Who knew? The Alberta one was incorporated officially 7 years before the one in Ontario. Apparently, neither one is related to Zephram Cochrane.)

Anyway, we’ve enjoyed our time reconnecting with people in Moosonee, and we’re heading back to Cochrane on the train this afternoon for a weekend of ministry.

That’s right, the seminar will be back on Friday and Saturday for any of you in Cochrane who would like to join us! On Friday and Saturday we’ll be back into ancient mysteries, papyrus fragments, and strange aquatic creatures of the Middle East as we study where the Bible came from. 🙂

On the sign above you can see English, French and Cree. I’m afraid the seminar will be in English only – although a little Spanish may sneak in!

On Sunday I’ll be preaching and sharing a bit about what God is doing in Mexico City. Hope you can join us!

So I haven’t kept up with posting tweets. But I guess I haven’t been tweeting too much anyway. So, here’s a quick update! Maybe it will give you a few glimpses into our trip so far…

And Further North We Go

Jim Family, Ministry glimpses, Prayer and Praise 0

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…

Next Up: Sudbury

Jim Prayer and Praise, ST Highlight 0

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.
