Mission Trip to Dublin, Ireland

Sydnee's Birthday Party

Sydnee's birthday was March 29th. I was gone to Ireland, so we celebrated the first weekend in April. She decided she wanted a Luau Party, so we dressed tropical, decorated Hawaiian and played luau party games. We had 7 girls here including Sydnee. Boy was that interesting!! We had a great time and they even got Jeremiah and I in on the fun!!

More zoo pics

Here's some more pictures of our zoo trip!

We went to the zoo on Good Friday (BIG MISTAKE!!!) We were told that they were giving away large amounts of candy. Each of us got one Cadbury Easter Egg. YIPPEEEE!!!! Anyways, the zoo here is great and we had alot of fun. Most of the pics are just of the tamed animals (US) and a few of real animals.

More easter pics

We searched for Easter eggs in the backyard this Easter. Its hard to hide Easter eggs when there's no bushes or trees.

Easter Egg Decoration

Here's some pics of us decorating Easter eggs. Eric one of the hispanics helped us.(Not pictured) The kids had a great time.

Hispanic Bible Study

Hello all,

God has been so awesome the past two months. Here are some pictures of two guys that Cesar (a student on campus) and I were fortunate to lead to the Lord. We have been meeting with them for about two months now and God has really grown them. We are now having a bilingual bible study at the seminary that has about 13-15 people every Sunday night. It may possibly be the start of a new bilingual church plant. The guys names are Eric and Cesar. They are from Mexico and have been working with Mindy at her job. Because of her relationship with them I was able to start a conversation with them at the indoor soccer game Cesar and I go to weekly. Many other hispanics have started to visit our bible study. They will hopefully be baptized within the next few weeks. We are looking forward to what God is going to do. We played a game of American Football with them one night in a field here at the seminary.

Edmonton Trip

Every year, the seminary sends out students to different parts of Canada to speak about the seminary and preach. I was sent to Edmonton, Alberta to preach at Grace Community Church. The service and people were great. We stayed with a couple who truly blessed us with their love for God and us. They even made us seven loaves of wheat bread. It was a great experience. We also were able to go to one of the largest malls in the world, West Edmonton Mall. They have a theme park, water park, two mini golf courses, a skating rink, and much more! All inside the same building!

We went with our church the other day to try the Canadian sport of Curling. It was actually a lot of fun! We were also able to fellowship with a lot of friends of people from church.

Sledding in Cochrane

Tanner and Jeremiah were celebrities in Cochrane when a picture of them sledding down a local hill was published on the cover of the local newspaper. Here's some pics of us sledding down that hill.

Here we go!

OK, we are going to try this blogging thing and see how it goes. Hopefully this will keep people more informed and up-to-date about what is going on in our lives up here in Canada. We will try to up date this as much as possible with stories and pictures. Well here we go!
