It’s been a few days since the last post–few things have happened since then–some friends are going through some difficult moments.
One exciting thing is I went to one friend’s son’s hockey games–they were in the Ontario finals for the Pee wee division (11 year olds) and unfortunately lost both games to Whitby–but man, talk about fast [...]

We have been studying the book of Acts on Wednesday nights and as familiar as we are with this book–it’s always good to go through again and see the reasons why the gospel has come to be told even in our neck of the woods.
In Acts chapter 6 racism had reared it’s ugly head in [...]

O Lord it is hard to have patience!
You sit and try to write a simple blog and your three year old decides at that time to throw a fit at not doing what she herself stopped herself from doing.  I really think God uses three year olds to help people grow in patience.  It would [...]

Really enjoyed our worship time yesterday.  Over 100 people at any service is nice and to see so many people for the first time was even nicer.  Finishing my 8 week series on the last week of Jesus’ life was something I was looking forward to.  It’s not that I didn’t enjoy the series, it [...]

Last night my nephew and I went to the late showing of the movie ‘10,000 BC’.  Pretty good film, basically a good guy’s movie where the ancient tribes get together and attempt to free thousands of slaves from a guy declaring himself to be a god!  Just a reminder that any kind of slavery at [...]

Today I’m expecting some special visitors.  I joke that I like my dad to come because I get a weekend where we can eat out alot and I don’t have to pay anything.  Mom and dad are visiting and they are bringing my nephew.  He is the only boy of my parents 6 grandchildren.  The [...]

     Every day after I write my post, I go and see what it looks like on my site and then I browse the links on my page and will read their new blogs and then often will browse the links on theirs and so on and so on.
     There are some really good writers [...]

I watched over the last few days one of my favourite movies–A Beautiful Mind starring Russel Crowe.  The story is about mathematician extraordinaire John Nash who won the 1994 Nobel prize for economics.
The movie is focused on Nash’s struggle with paranoid schizophrenia and how he lived to ignore the voices and go on to regain [...]

Something started the other night when some friends were over and it’s not going to stop for a couple of days.  All the ladies (3 of them to be exact) went into my bathroom upstairs and started to make plans for it’s redecorating.  Now, they probably didn’t think of putting Montreal Canadien wallpaper up–but now [...]

Our youngest was going out to the movies with her big sisters and friends of theirs.  This was the first time Olivia got to go without having mom and dad with her.  She was getting excited and tired by the time we drove them over.  She kept saying ‘I don’t want to go to the [...]
