Members of Grunthal EMB (we are their sending Church)
Ron and I moved back to Manitoba the last part of May and spent some time trying to get all our documents changed over. Then we went to Saskatchewan and spent most of June with our son Jonathan and his wife Lyn and their two daughters, Gatlin and Aemelia. What fun! Ron helped Jonathan build a fence and do some work in their basement. One of those weeks, we drove to Alberta and visited as many friends and supporters as we could. We also dropped in at Peter’s Drive in, a Hamburger place in Calgary, to see if they were as good as during our Bible college days. The milkshakes are still too thick to drink right away….
Arriving back home at the end of June, we prepared to head off to Ontario to do something completely out of the normal for us. We are doing the cooking and purchasing for CEF of Ontario’s camp for 3 weeks in July and 3 weeks in August. It was definitely a learning curve for both of us.
Most of our days are spent in the kitchen. I’m basically in charge of cooking, seasoning and total amount made. Ron is becoming a master of many skills! Not only does he keep the utensils clean, he’s doing all the grill work—burgers, stir-fries, pancakes/French toast, etc. Plus he does all the heavy lifting. It takes a lot of organization to get the meals done and out for consumption on time. Part of my work is also trying to figure out the proper amount to make so we don’t have too much left over, or worse yet, not enough! By the end of the day, we’re feeling our age! But the Lord is giving us good nights sleep and His strength for us is new every morning, Praise His name!
We appreciate your prayers for safety as we travel back and forth from Manitoba to Ontario. Also for good health. We don’t want to be the reason someone gets sick. Maybe some comments to God about my paying better attention might be in order as well. Ron was frying some ground meat for enchiladas and I was seasoning it. I remarked that the pepper was very clumpy. I looked down and discovered I was covering the meat liberally with nutmeg instead… Fortunately, a hot water rinse took care of that!
Thanks for your prayers and gifts towards our support. By September we trust we will be able to share more of what we actually plan to do this fall. For now, we “eat and sleep” food!
However, one day, all of our wanderings will be over. Hebrews 11 has a list of saints who: “admit that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. …this shows that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.” 11:13-16 We will finally be home! Oh! blessed thought!
Love,
Eunice
