Full House

It has been a busy few days, as Liz and I have been very blessed by visits from friends and family. On Friday night we enjoyed a meal with Lizs' Aunt, Uncle and cousin as well as her parents. The DeNuke's stayed for the weekend to have a visit with us. Lord willing, we soon will be in Cumberland Bay and unfortunately won't be as close for them to visit, it is nice to be able to take advantage of it while we can. They were here until Sunday and were able to meet our friends Alan, Esther and Harmony Giesbrecht as they arrived for a visit on Sunday. Carl, Alan and Harmony came out to the ski hill for a BeaverTail and were able to visit a bit before the DeNuke's had to return to the farm.

We were so pleased to be able to have the Giesbrecht's with us for a couple of days. It was a great opportunity to get to know them a bit better and they were very encouraging to us in our very early stages of ministry and deputation. While they were with us they did a preliminary questionnaire with us before we go out to Prince Albert for meetings in April. As a part of that training we've been asked to read Pass the Baton by Steffan, I'll fill you in on that once I've finished reading it. There are quite a lot of exciting books that I've been learning about and I think I'll be reading for years to come just to scratch the surface.
