Important moments in our work and personal lives.
Buckle Up – here is the last month in a few paragraphs…. On January 7th the pace of our life was completely re-defined when we were given official permission to go. Within 24 hours we had booked tickets to Toronto and made our travel plans on to Slovakia. We found ourselves moving quickly to pack… Read More Going, Going – Gone!
Though we got our un-official approval yesterday (to which there was much jubilation expressed in the forms of hugging, screaming and jumping around), it was made official today. We’ve been given the green light to go ahead with our transition to Slovakia! All missionaries with our organization need to raise at least 75% of their… Read More We’re Leaving on a Jetplane
Last night Matthew convinced a 7 year old girl that he was excited for December 25th because he loves Tuesdays… We trust that this Tuesday has been one worth remembering. Merry Christmas!

We were honoured to have people who came… Read More We are SO Married
