Vinyl Cafe

The past few days have been very encouraging for me. The highlight was probably attending a Vinyl Café concert with Stuart McLean. For those not in the know he has a show on CBC radio where he tells uplifting, humorous stories. The icing on the cake was we met personally with Stuart after the concert. This was arranged by one of the nurses we consulted with this past week. God works things out in his timing even to seeing the nurse this particular week. This brings to mind a favourite verse of the boys at the school I taught at in Kenya so many years ago – Jer. 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future

    Hi Laverne and John, I check in once in a while to see how you are all doing. I'm glad to see John is feeling better these days and glad to know that he is home in the community that cares so much for him.
