Hello again!  I’m writing you today from Hamilton.  We’ve enjoyed some good times with people since we talked to you last, and even had a couple of days off.  We were at Fair Havens<\/a> for three nights.  Fair Havens is a Christian camp just south of Orillia on the Trent Canal Waterway.  The weather was nice enough that we could spend some time outside, and we enjoyed browsing the bookstore there and doing some indoor activities as well.  I have an album dedicated to Fair Havens in our gallery that you can check out, for those who haven’t been there for a while, or those who are looking for a good camp.  Most of the pictures there now are from our brief stop there in October, but I’ll try to add a shot or two sometime of our most recent visit.<\/p>\n

On Sunday we were at Bethany Community Church<\/a>.  Our former director at Venture Teams International<\/a>, Len Lane, was leading a seminar on short term missions and we were asked to come and give a bit of a testimony.  So we really enjoyed that.  Len and Carol Lane work with Global Outreach Mission<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now we’re planning our last week in Ontario, still looking for opportunities to share on Sunday, and trying to visit a few more people.  If you visit our “More News” page, or our Yahoo! calendar, you’ll see our trip home is partially planned as well.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Pastor Bob of London who pointed out the problem to me, I’ve repaired a problem in the comments on this blog, so y’all should be able to leave comments now without getting an error message.  Try it out! \ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
