Community

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has. Margaret MEAD
Mat 18:20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them." JESUS
Earlier this week I visited my doctor where the first quote was on the wall of the examination room. Last night I attended a meeting of the Kelly Creek Community School where there was a visible demonstration of the first quote as people rallied around to keep the community aspect of the school alive. The second quote came to mind as I thought of all the things people had done to help me get back into the house. Let’s together pray for the success of the school this year.

I love your Margaret Mead quote, it is one of my favourites as well. Praying for all good things to come to you, and to the school.

Calm in the storm - blessings and praises

1 ATV was on the trail minutes after Johns accident. He was able to get help ASAP while Laverne was able to stay and assist.

2 The cement blocks had been removed from the beginning of the logging road so that the ambulance could back in right away.

3 The nurses at the hospital were the right ones. One worked with John and one graduated with Laverne. They were Connie and Ellen.

4 Good friends Lee & Don, Bob & Pat were at the hospital quickly.

5 Laverne was able to fly with John on the Medivac helicopter as this is unusual.

6 In vancouver Beth Sykes a Cascades church friend was coming on shift on ICU after a week in Mexico.

7 Tom Freeman a friend was in town to Visit John the first day.

8 The many prayers and help. Those who have helped by taking DVBS, feeding cat, gathering belongings, (and bringing them down), and getting the bikes home.

9 Karen from 100 Huntley St called out friend Patricia and said she sensed that a close friend needed prayer.

10 Sister Eleanor was able to get a quick flight and be there before surgery.

11 John was able and ready to get a tracheotomy in good time instead of days or weeks later.
