- I'm not on the network much, so emails are a much better way of contacting me. Nice pictures, still remember seeing the three crosses on my way to St. Luke LC.

- It was our annual Lawn sale. Our community comes out and we welcome over 500 people. This is the first year we had the pray table and 22 people, not connected to our congregation, requested prayer. I was pleased to hear whatever they desired prayer for and then to pray for that expressed need without critic. I first expereinced this on a mission trip to India in 1995. I was one of a team teaching pastors and Bible women and at the end of every teaching many would ask for prayer. Touch was very important and I found that a hand on the shoulder during the prayers offered at our lawn sale was also positively received. It was an honour to pray for them.

- I have season passes to the Blue Jays and invite people to come to a game with me. Lots of fun and a great opportunity to share life stories. Connecting with the people outside and inside our community.
