this is called a Thanksgiving tree-- never heard of it!? what-?

It's a Canadian thing don't worry... = )

(Even most Canadians have never heard of it..)

just barely escaping Clifford---
       yes, if you can't tell from my face in the photo I sacrificed myself for my friend Sarah, taking two full pitchers of water. brrr---
    (Clifford!)

 







precious hosanna

she makes me think of my nieces every time I see her, and reminds my heart
 how much I miss them by aching a lot....

 

nothing like sharing the fellowship of eating a oh henry together with a great friend over Skype.

Doesn't matter what day you have Thanksgiving on...
cause Canadians have their day on October 14, while Americans have theirs on November 28....
what matters is..
--->  Are you thankful??
i corinthians 10:26 and 31
       "For the earth is the LORD's, and all the fullness thereof."
   So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do,
                              do all to the glory of GOD.
i timothy 4:4
   for everything created by GOD is good,
                    and nothing is to be rejected if it is received
                                  with thanksgiving.

God calls us to be thankful.

in all things.     <----(!)
I Thessalonians 5: 18
            Give thanks in all circumstances for this is the will of GOD in Christ Jesus for you.

On the streets--

Hamilton, Ontario

Helped at a Soup Kitchen for the afternoon, met Sadie.

There was a bit of miscommunication, we showed up late to the Soup Kitchen and everyone had already ate and was gone-- we were able to help the staff put away some summer clothes and get out winter clothes.

Just having the opportunity to work alongside of others is a ministry in itself.

 

At the Norfolk County Fair Simcoe, Ontario with Child Evangelism Fellowship

Christmas in October
We help CEF (Child Evangelism Fellowship) with their booth at the Norfolk County Fair, in their booth they had a tent with a live nativity walk through- the students dressed up as different characters from the story of Jesus' birth. And then there were several stations for the kids to get face painting-- and then you even got to go through a bouncy house!!
Every aspect had the opportunity to share the gospel!! from the birth and crucifixion of Christ Jesus our Lord, to the five gospel colors (yellow, black, red, white, green) that the face painters were able to share about! 
Over the three days we were at the Fair we saw more than 5,000 youth and parents come through the booth. 

o.a.e. TRAINING

  

Open air preparation

Sam Frey allowing God to use him and his talents to shine your light

and to help others to effectively share the Gospel.

The guys practicing on the board

The girls learning the children's Gospel story

------------------------------------------------------------------------

We can prep till we are blue in the face,

but until we get out there and do the real thing, we will never feel ready.

it's about the experience.

((GO.))Put it in to action.

God doesn't call the equipped,

God equips the called...

We need to be ready for whatever GOD gives us on our plates, but we are usually not completely ready for how Great of things!

All for God's glory.

I Corinthians

We have this Treasure in jars of clay.

It's so we can be broken and let what is on the inside out!

Prasie Be to God--

 

I want to thank you all so much--

You have made my ministry possible! Praise be ultimately to GOD!

 

Here is a little card, a little Thank You and a update.... = )

  

..prayer request...

 

*it's easy in our human minds to think of ourselves of less importance,

    pray that I will be in constant remembrance that it's not how important that I become, but that I do it all for the glory of God and that He gets the praise!

*for finances- any dollar amount is nothing in the sight of our God who has created everything!

 

...praise...

*God has supplied for the month of September!

 

In light of God answering the need that I have to be supported financially, He has been growing my faith!

and many of those around me! my family and friends-

 

I thank you again!

the adirondacks || IN NEW YORK

weekends are just too short sometimes! Took a quick road trip down to the great state of New York, it was great to meet new friends and to see how the old ones were growing in God's Word and changing in their lives!
How great is the Word of God, powerful enough to change the hearts and minds of wicked men!

2 Timothy 3:16

All Scripture is breathed out by God and

 profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction,

 and for training in righteousness,



 

 

friends

it's hard to say good bye...

there will be a day when we now longer have to = )

Heaven, what a glorious day that will be!

 

Will you be there?

 painting pots for apple trees = )

 

 



 

God has proven Himself true!!

 

It's only by Jesus Christ that I am able to minister in Canada.

 

May I never be known for taking God's gift's and blessings for granted

 

That would be selfish, and the furtherance of the Gospel would be stopped-

 

How are you handling God's Word today?? Wisely-

 

Today has only been given to you to share God's <3

 

 Psalm 118:24

This is the day that the Lord has made;

let us rejoice and be glad in it.
