This is Adele from Team Two writing from Simcoe, Ontario.
This past week, as you know, we were in the beautiful city of Ottawa, Ontario celebrating Jesus' Resurrection, putting on a few Encounter Days and of course spending time as a team.
We had some really great Encounter Days this past week. One in particular that stood out was one we did for grades five to eight at Maryvale Academy. The students there were all so faithful and so knowledgeable in their faith that I learned so much from them. There was one student in particular in grade seven, who, when we asked about the rosary and if anyone knew anything about it, had said that Mary appeared to St. Dominic. We were all blown away by his mature answer. During the prayer time on that Encounter Day, most of the students, if not all, were kneeling and in deep prayer. It was so beautiful to witness such an amazing devotion. We also had the privilege of having Sean Milan, from Team One, join us for the day.
Thursday we had a relaxed team day. It started with men's and women's session. The men went to Smiths Falls to visit with Team Five. The women spend the morning sharing at my house followed by lunch and a movie - New York Minute. What better way to spend a women session with none other than our beautiful supervisor Meaghan?
On Saturday we traveled to Ingersoll, Ontario. We had an awesome Encounter Day on Monday, for grade eight students. It was a wonderful way to start out the week. They were all really receptive and enthusiastic, and really interes
ted in learning more about NET and about God.God has truly been working through us every day and showing us what an amazing opportunity we have to spread His word and at the same time learn from those around us.
PRAISE HIM!
In Jesus and Mary,
Adele
