better late than never.

oops! i missed writing an update last weekend!

we had kristin and tyler over on the weekend and terrell was curling in the mca, so it was a little hectic. when i did have the apartment to myself, i was prepping stuff for church.  i taught youth sunday school and did the children's story. for the children's story i read the book, "the runaway bunny," which i borrowed from glenn and katie. if you haven't read it, do. its a beautiful story about the love of a mother that parallels with the love that God has for us - one which pursues and persists, even when we run or push it away.

last week was a busy week. with sr. youth we served at winnipeg harvest, which was a fun evening. they are such a great group and it was wonderful to visit and laugh while bagging and sorting rice. we also went out for lunch as staff to celebrate/say goodbye to our lead minister, who is retiring next week. the meal was so yummy and my colleagues are a great group of people. its weird to think of james leaving our circle...we'll all miss him very much.

last weekend i wrote a card to my great aunt and uncle, ed and elaine, to thank them for their generous christmas gift. they gave us a bag full of carrots, potatoes and onions from peak of the market. they were DELICIOUS and we have been enjoying many yummy meals with them. i also wanted to let them know i missed seeing them at christmas.

i hope you've all had a good week!
