After living in Tanzania for many years, we now live in the UK and enjoy working with Amigos Worldwide and Bees Abroad as we continue to be passionate about seeing local churches transform their communities!

Next Stop: Stouffville

It has been so great to spend time with family and catch up with friends here in the Vancouver area! It was especially good to see so many at the Open House last week. We are so grateful for the support and love we receive here! Thank you to all who came!

We have enjoying being with The King's Community Church and also back for an assembly at The King's School. I attended the school from grade 4-12 and was later a teacher there for two years and we have since had two teams visit us in Tanzania from the school so there is a lot of history there! As well as visiting friends and old haunts we have made a dent in our shopping list, things like shoes and underwear were rather necessary and then a few more interesting things to take back like Ranch dressing mix!


Back with our Canada Teams

A great surprise at the Open House when EIUK chairman, David Varcoe from London walked in!

We enjoyed another day out with my parents in Vancouver, exploring by bus, skytrain and seabus, soaking up the sights of the mountains and city!

Next week we are leaving Beautiful British Columbia and heading to the Toronto area. We are looking forward to spending time with the folks at Emmanuel International Canada and also visiting Stouffville Christian School.

On Wednesday evening (April 22nd) at 6:30pm, EIC are hosting a dinner which will be followed by us sharing about our work and then a time to stay and chat afterwards. We welcome any who are able to join us!
