A few months ago I had set aside a time to meet with family – on both my side and my fiance’s side. The total commitment – Friday night supper meal and time to chat. Maybe a few hours in Airdrie, Alberta.
Then a snow storm hit. A class that I was to teach was postponed until tomorrow afternoon. Which meant I’m on the road earlier than planned.
My daughter is coming with her family. They will arrive for an overnight stay tonight. And return on Saturday night. Saturday morning and part of the afternoon Cynthia and I will spend time with them touring a dinosaur museum and a reptile world in Drumheller, Alberta.
Our elders and pastoral staff missed having a Christmas/New Year’s meal. Saturday night worked well. The plan is to be here in Kindersley by 5:30, with a great repast planned.
Sunday services remain the same, with an additional afternoon service at one of our senior’s homes.
Sunday at 4:00 in the afternoon I will finally sit down with my fiance and breathe!
And it all started as a few hours planned a few months ago.
