The weekends tend to be busy times around here, and this past weekend was no exception!<\/b> So here’s a bit of what happened…<\/p>\n

On Friday, we had a Bible study learning about the Holy Spirit – His nature, what it means to be “filled with the Spirit”, and so on. Hannah taught the kids’ study, focusing on the books of the Bible.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, activities like the kids’ club, soccer and youth club continued as normal. Hannah went to the youth club, but otherwise we weren’t much involved because I had a meeting in Mexico City and all three of us went (Shari being in Canada for a few days).<\/p>\n

The meeting in Mexico City was with leaders of various churches in the area. Good meeting. And a short meeting. A short meeting is a good meeting. But seriously, it was good to study God’s Word together, pray together, plan together, and struggle with various issues together.<\/p>\n

The Word of Life interns were over here a couple times during the weekend. On Saturday night we made “Canadian style nachos” – nachos with things like cheddar cheese and ground beef. The two girls from Mexico said that they had “never done anything like this before” – which goes to show how little much of the “Mexican food” in Canada resembles the real thing!

\"Fernando
Fernando’s concert – look at all the open Bibles!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n

Sunday we had a guest from Uruguay, who took us through the life of Jesus and beyond – all with music! It was just Fernando and his guitar, and all of us with our Bibles open following along (and sometimes singing along) because most of the music was right out of the Scripture. Fun!<\/p>\n

I also preached on Sunday, on “The Sower”, and thanks to a lot of work fighting with technology showed this video<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Garage
Getting the garage sale started!<\/figcaption><\/figure>One member of our congregation has been struggling with some serious health issues. We were thankful to see him looking a lot better at the service on Sunday. Today Mayra and some of the women from the church in Santa Barbara are holding a garage sale to raise some funds for his medical bills.<\/p>\n

And yes, Shari made a brief trip to Canada to pick up a few things, most importantly popcorn seasoning<\/del> some medication that we can’t buy here. And Lord willing she comes home today!<\/p>\n

We’re looking forward to having David Radlowsky back this weekend (and into the week), as well as a team from the USA. It should be another full weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
