Training week
I know it has been a while since I updated, but we have had pretty limited access to the internet in the past week, and I just have not had enough time to update the blog. Training week went great. Lots of cool things were happening, we went white-water rafting, had a great time hearing from Mike Tibedeaux about evangelism, great worship services, and plenty of time out serving in the communities. My team was able to go to a Hutterite Colony and learn about their way of life. The family that we visited are all belivers, but they believe that they are the only one in their colony of around 100 that are believers. We were able to have a Bible Study with them and had a great time encouraging them and just hanging out. The highlight of my past week and a half came early when Rebekah picked me up at the airport on the 11th. It had been almost a month since we had seen each other, and it sure felt longer than that. Although training week was great, seeing Rebekah was better.

My team and I traveled to our location yesterday, Tuesday, and settled in to where we are going to be living. We are staying in a Bed and Breakfast in Raymond, Alberta, about 10 minutes from our place of service, Magrath, and have a really great setup there. As most of you know, Magrath is about 90% Mormon, so it was really cool to find out the owners of the bed and breakfast are mormon, and we'll be living with them and interacting with them all summer. We are in Magrath today, and it has been going well. I will post an entry of what has happened here today, in the next few days. Finally, as of today, Rebekah and I have been dating 6 months, so it's kinda a milestone for us. Thought some of you might want to know that. Until next time, God Bless!
