Today I worked on a recording I’ve been doing with a friend. He is now a senior and wanted to sing a few songs for his family and friends. I took my recording equipment to a piano. Recorded the piano. Took the equipment back home. Recorded him singing to the music. Two hours of piano […]

Seeking to find
Tonight we sat with two young people. They have a varied background and are looking for more. More than addictions or friends or society can provide. We are introducing them to Jesus. What fun! To watch as a new concept or understanding lights up their faces. There really is something to this "pass it on" […]
Caleb Construction Site
Take a look at the view out our back window (OK, it’s the Kindersley Alliance Church back window view)! The seniors housing is coming along well, despite a wind last Thursday that threatened to dismantle the whole building. Today 28 of us sat down to eat lunch together with more than half of those being […]
From problem to crisis
That’s what I heard today. About our drug and alcohol abuse in Kindersley. A year ago things were bad, now they are worse. I sat with our RCMP detachment commander as he talked about the current situation. I sat with regional personnel from health, schools, clergy, education, social services and other areas. They echoed the […]
The line between rain and shine
Thoughts on riding the road: Today, I entered into the rain and came out of the rain. In between, I sat in an auditorium that was unheated, and ate in a kitchen area warmed by ovens and people. This was the 75th anniversary of our local camp, Luseland Bible Camp. 30 years ago I directed […]
My control
I guess I’ve had it with rain. We’ve had at least a week’s worth — and on the prairies that is unusual. And somehow, all I can do is look at the weather channel and guess what will happen next. Perhaps this type of weather is the best predictor of what I should think of […]
A little water?
That’s all that it takes! We have cancelled a ballgame scheduled for tomorrow night. Now, I have to admit a little water is actually around 2 inches in the last few days. I believe we have had rain every day for the last few weeks. For the dry prairies this is more than enough water. […]
A clown in Sunday garb?
We celebrated today a successful fundraising for our youth missions team. In fact, we went over our goal! As part of the celebration, I wore a wig that could represent how my hair might have looked if it had been colored (one of the fundraisers). Someone said it should have had a hole in the […]
The fun of it all
Two events today. One was a fundraiser, for a youth missions trip. A garage sale and a shave it/color it [OR not] finished at 12:00 noon. The "winner" of the shave it event was our illustrious church board chairman, Harvey Penner. Later in the afternoon we headed to a 50th Anniversary for our friends Art […]
Visitors from outer space?
OK, maybe another space — like Prince Albert. We were just resting when the call came. Meet us for coffee. Tim Horton’s will do. Five kids, and we got to get up to speed on their lives. And the lives of the parents. All in all an enjoyable time. Good to have friends. Ones who […]
