What a difference six years can make ...

Six years ago I stood on the same spot as where I took this picture and took a photo that I took home to BC and showed to Mag and our family and friends as we tried to discern if the Spirit was calling me ministry in Minnedosa ...

Today where there once was a majestic church that has been there for 99 years (back in 2000), there is a vacant sand filled lot ... What a difference six years can make??

Now there is no building but the process of discernment continues ... today the discernment is shared by many people. It includes envisioning what will replace what once was ... it includes keeping the momentum and the enthusiasm up in the long months ahead ... and it includes deciding if my ministry here in Minnedosa will continue ...

In this season of Resurrection we yearn to hear the whisper of the Spirit ... in this season of Resurrection we know that God is calling us forward, its the direction that needs some clarifying ...

L'chaim,
