Beginning in Fort Macleod

Crowsnest Pass, Canadian Rockies
There isn't a photo that does justice to the glory of God in His creation as we drove into the Canadian Rockies on our Faith Student Ministries mission trip to Pincher Creek and Fort Macleod, Alberta on Saturday.

Our teams are settled now, 11 in PC and 18 in FM, ready to begin VBS and contact with youth in both towns on Monday.

We traveled to Spokane Friday night and stayed in a beautiful family home of he Sundin family.  Our kids were amazed by God's goodness to us through their amazing hospitality. 

Our travel time seemed significantly longer from Spokane to our Alberta destination Saturday morning.  Despite that, we were all stunned as we drove through the Canadian Rockies in southwestern Alberta.  

Our kids have been awesome.  The FM Alliance Church youth and overall body greeted us with genuine warmth.  Today, we attended church, prayer walked with some of the FM youth, and prepared for our newly-planned VBS.
Please pray for:
1. Our intercession around brokenness in FM.
2. Continued enthusiasm to engage with the youth.
3. VBS and outreach to community youth.
4. My gentleness in serving with our FM team.
5. Our hearts to abide in the word and to pray for what He is doing all around us here.
