Home

We are home, safe and sound - back in beautiful Saskatoon!

What an absolutely fantastic, incredible experience we had in Austria! We are so glad that we took this opportunity to go, and to pray for Richard and Hazel and friends. It was such a privilege to spend time with them, bless and encourage them. What a joy to meet the Austrian people. We were blessed way beyond anything we could ever have imagined!

We felt the prayers of everyone back home... thank you so much for praying! God answered in so many ways, and through this experience He taught us to rely fully on Him, as individuals and as a group.

We praise God for great connections with the Austrian people and for all of our new friends; for a strengthening of our relationship with Richard and Hazel; for safety, health, unity, wisdom, great weather, and daily strength. We know that prayer makes a difference!
Special moments include:
- special sharing and prayer times -
- getting to know wonderful Austrian people -
- learning about the history and culture from Richard and Hazel and from new Austrian friends -
- enjoying beautiful scenery -
- singing and praising God together with believers on the other side of the world -
- enjoying new, delicious Austrian foods -
- laughing all the way along, and as we traveled together in a 9 passenger van -
-many God-moments where we knew it was His mercy and grace at work -

The result of this trip is that we have fallen in love with Austria and the wonderful people there. They will always have a special place in our hearts, and we don't ever want to forget them.

Thanks to everyone for your prayers, encouragement and support.

GOD IS SO GOOD!
