Hello Everyone!
So, we finally arrived in Alberta last week. We were lucky enough to stay with both Sarah and Tyler's family's from the team, we all had a really great time with them, which made it super sad to say goodbye.
Last weekend we were asked to play Music for 3 Masses at different parishes in Lethbridge. The idea behind this was to give the parishes a taste of what will be coming this fall, which is a NET Parish Infuse Team!
There were lots of young people present at the Masses, so a Parish team definitely sounds like a good idea. After a week off of retreats due to winter break (yeah, they get a winter break here on the prairies, crazy eh?) we were eager to get back to business last Monday. We had an array of really awesome retreats where the youth and teachers loved us and wanted us to stay for longer!
Alex lead her first retreat at Tyler's old high school, so that was a pretty exciting day for both of them! Alex had a bit of a tough crowd, but by the end of the day they warmed up to us and responded really well to the prayer time at the end of the retreat.
That's about all for now. Till next time, God bless!

P.S. Oh! We also stopped in Medince Hat to surprise the team there! Most of them had no idea we were coming, so they were super excited to see us.
