Well we finally have had a real good snow day and it's been cold enough to stay. The weather here in Camrose has been so strange lately and suprisingly mild. Having the snow on the ground has put a few people in the Christmas mood. So even though there is major studying for exams happening in the dorm....from time to time you can hear a Christmas carol or two. There is a rising anticipation in the thought of heading home after exams....only 13 more sleeps.
Last night we went into Edmonton for a church service at a newly planted church. It was such a great night and exciting to hear how God is working. There were maybe 35-50 people there and about 90% of them were Phillipino. Their love for God was so evident in their worship and prayer time. Pastor Ben preached a good sermon on "Words" which challenged us to think about how we live for Christ. He also talked with us afterwards, he works full-time days and his wife works a night shift and they have 4 children. He asked for prayer that God would provide a 12 passenger van for him so that it's easier to pick people up who want to come to church. Please join us in praying for Pastor Ben and the church at Millcreek, that God would continue to bless them with strength and discernment and provide financially for them.
