Home Assignment (Furlough) is a strange thing. It dawned on me as we entered into Sheri’s parents place, that neither they nor my parents probably are going to get back up to our house (my mom hasn’t seen it yet) which is 3.5 hours north of where they live. The reason – we are constantly coming down to where they are! We have been doing quite a bit of traveling the last little while, at least it feels that way!
Moving forward, each weekend till December is booked with various speaking engagements or conferences. It can begin to take a toll on family. As I walked into Sheri’s parents’ house last night, I realized that most people don’t live this way. Most of them stay put generally. It is nice however, that we are allowed flexibility in that Sheri and the kids don’t always have to come with me as I travel to different churches from Regina to Langley BC. I hope I am not coming across as whining……………………….. many missionaries I know have to travel from the east coast, to the west coast……………………………of both Canada and the US! So by comparison, we have it pretty easy.
The picture of the kids is just them getting back to their Canadian roots! It was during a stop this summer while camping in the Rocky Mountains!
Well, just thought I would let you all know what has been happening in our lives lately. We are working on a new prayer card and will get that out soon. The next few weeks look like this. Saskatoon, Didsbury, Regina, Langley BC. Pray for us! Thankful to have you on our team.
