It's been awhile between posts. I have been busy - since the last post the church I am at has gained status as a society under the government which allows us to buy land, pay bills, hold insurance etc etc. This means that I no longer will be held as a staff member at our founding church.

It seems strange to feel sad about this - to say it has been a bumpy ride over the last five years would be very diplomatic (and I am trying to be more diplomatic these days). And yet there was a lot of really significant ministry done during that time. Dozens of people got baptized, many good friends were made and I learned a lot about who I am in the process of those struggles. don't look forward to handing in my resignation.

I haven't had a lot of time to think about it though as I am currently teaching daytime classes at the college I serve as an adjunct professor. The courses I teach are Applied Linguistics and Intro to Second Language Acquisition. Because the course leads to a recognized certificate it has been very demanding. I have to make sure I cover all of the pertinent topics, log my contact hours and keep track of homework assignments etc. to be turned in to TESL Canada.

I am getting ready to go back to Regina - a little business a little pleasure. This Sunday I am preaching at the church I was baptised in. I was supposed to do some work with the Saskatchewan government (consulting/training) later in the week but it got pushed to the fall for some reason or other. I will get to visit some friends and family but not for long as I have to finish out the courses I am teaching.

More doodles to come, but for now...

Ehkosit,
