Expect Nothing Less than Miracles

Hey Everyone,

We have been here now for about two weeks and we have been just loving it.  The people here have been so loving and welcoming, they have made the transition really easy.  This Friday we will be having our first Reach night (our Jr.High Youth Group) which we are really excited about.

Our First Sunday here the parish community held a potluck lunch for us, which gave us a chance to meet some really great people in the community, during which we performed a song for them ("Build Your Kingdom here" By Rend Collective Experiment to be precise). After the potluck we were given the opportunity to participate in the Life Chain here in Drayton Valley, it was such an amazing opportunity to pray and stand up for the rights of the unborn.

On the Wednesday we went to the High School here called Holy Trinity Academy and had our Popcorn Survey, it was so much fun just getting to know the youth here and what there Favorite Breakfast Cereal is and which writing Utensil the prefer.
I also had the opportunity to speak with a student who shared with me that he was Baptist but was going to the Catholic High School because he felt that it held much of the same beliefs he did and I then invited him to come check out our High School Youth Group Revive, he was really open with me and he told me that while most high schools tend to create bullies, that this school was different and from what he could see everybody in some shape or form respect each other so I am really looking forward and hoping to see if this is true which I believe it is.

We are all very much excited to really jump into Ministry with our Reach and Revive Kick-off Events coming up so look out for our next Blog with updates from those events.


From all of us here, God Bless,
