Calgary News October




We are now finding our feet in Calgary. Kathryn is working at Tim Hortons ( coffee shop) . She began with a really stressfull first week, but she is beggining to find her feet. vinjelu has been having a little culture shock being back in Calgary and finding rythm with Ywam. YWAM is a bit on a slower pace than usual. We are re-evaluating our programs, re-vamping our filing system, and also praying through some big decisions that need to made in the next year. We are also cleaning out the office and so ther is alot of practical work to be done. Vinjelu is helping with facilities (making sure that everything has a place to go!!)

Right now we are trying to see where God is leading us. We actually don't have enough Mission Financial support and so the issue of raising supporters comes round again. But since we believe that support should be relationship based, it is a problem that will not go away any time soon, since relationships take time.
We are living with a Canadain Chinese couple (Art and Corinna Kung). They are very easy to live with . We occupie two rooms. One is our office, the other is our bedroom. Here are some photo's!

As you can see we are still moving in, soon we will have photo's and pictures on the walls, and it will be our home untill March 2007! Come and visit if you can, we're in south East Calgary!

looks like you have the same desk as Dad.

What's this I read on Janice's blog that you won't be coming home until December?!!

Hey guys, looks nice. Is that the same place that I picked you up from when we went for dessert? Where Margot lived? How is Margot doing anyhow??? Where is she?

It's good to hear that you are liking Tim's more Kath. I hope it stays as a good job for you.

Sorry we forgot to call you guys when we were in Calgary on Monday. It was a pretty busy day..even though we didn't want it to be rushed it still felt a bit rushed. It was nice to be out somewhere with just Michael though. And somewhere not necessarily in Edmonton or area. We had a great time. Spent the morning having breakfast with Dad, Rena, Katie and Matt. It's been almost a year since the both of us where around to visit with them together...and the kids are growing up so fast. My dad made his famous pancake breakfast...that was nice. My grandparents came and visited for a short while before we said good bye to them and left for Chinook. The rest of the time we were at Chinook shopping and hanging out. Left Calgary around 7pm and had to stop in Wetaskiwin to pick up Curly. Tyler babysat...I mean dogsat (he was so thrilled to have Curly around overnight). So..picked up Curly and went home. Walked in the door, dropped all bags and went to bed...
