Weekly Re-Cap
This week... 1. I spoke at two churches on Sunday in Shelburn and Clark's Harbour, Nova Scotia. It was a good day. 2. On Monday I drove from Clark's Harbour to Halifax, where I visited some friends for the afternoon and evening. 3. Tuesday, I drove the rest of the way...
Weekly Re-Cap
Last week's re-cap was written on a boat somewhere in the Bay of Fundy during a storm. Obviously I arrived safely in Nova Scotia, but it was a rough ride. So rough, in fact, that they couldn't dock securely enough to let the vehicles drive off, and we had to wait...
February Prayer Letter
Hi everyone, I'm writing to you this time from Wood's Harbour, Nova Scotia. I traveled to NS last week during the snow storm -- which meant a long and rough boat ride, but thankfully I made it in one piece. Between Saturday and Tuesday, I had the opportunity to...

Weekly Re-Cap
This past week, this term's "finals" began: Final meeting with the pastor who has been my internship mentor. Final young adults prayer meeting. Final Japanese class (not including this Tuesday's test). And today was my final ministry event, the bi-lingual Christmas...
December Prayer Letter
Hi everyone, Happy December! I know this will sound cliche, but can you believe it's that time of year already?! This month's email will be short and to the point, because like most of you, these days are busy for me too! Thank you for your prayers over the past...
