Latest Happenings

Well, this past week has been 

busy as usual, but with 

the added blessing of another

opportunity to share with Katherine

God's love. 

Our church was invited to take

part in the annual Christmas Parade

and we were told we were allowed to hand

out what we like to all!

What an opportunity to be able 

to hand out tracts and goodies to 

the hundreds of people who turned out

for the parade! 

Some of the ladies in the church busily

made costumes and sleigh dog masks

and decorated our much used tandem 

trailer for the occasion

(she has NEVER looked quite like that before)

We were able to walk alongside handing out 

little goody bags with lollies and tracts inside, 

and a banner that had our church name on it. 

One lady must have thought Dave and Justin needed

a hand carrying it as she walked a short distance with them. 

All in all, we were able to hand out 500 tracts 

and could have given out much more

as we ran out due to the enormous number

of people who attended. 

One of the men in the church 

(who shall remain nameless)

made a big hit with his bear costume

and the was the subject of MANY photos! 

It was also a treat to see many of the 

Barunga people there with their 2 floats. 

We have been filling in on Sundays 

in the community of Barunga

and have made many friends.

(more on that in a future post)

I'm not usually in the photos,

but here I am with a couple of lovely 

ladies from the Barunga Church. 

And of course, I HAD to get a picture 

with the cute minion! 

Miriam got to come along as well

although I think she ended up sleeping

through most of it. 

We pray that God will use His Word

to speak to hearts and that we will 

see fruit from our labours. 

IN OTHER NEWS.....

Maddie and our front gate 

had a slight altercation on Monday

resulting in 7 stitches in her finger 

and yet another trip to the local hospital! 

We have just wrapped up Youth Group and

Teen Group for the holidays

and are looking forward to a little break,

at least in that department. 

Life flies along swiftly in all other 

areas. But despite our busy lives

and sometimes discouraging times,

God remains faithful and true.
