So Long since the last post!

Hello everybody. There's a reason for my recent blog hiatus. It's this - busyness. I know, I know we're all busy, that's no excuse and of course, you're right. But check it out.

- A week and a half ago I started a part-time job serving at Bob's Bar and Grill (a great place to eat and relax!) in Aldergrove.

- This past week I started another part-time job labeling bottles at a brewery! That's right - Dead Frog Brewery in Aldergrove. I've met some pretty interesting people there! The work is tedious and the pay rate is low, but the connections are great.

- On Sunday, Taralyn and the boys and I moved from Langley City to Aldergrove. Friends and family came around and helped us out a lot, and we're super-thankful for each of them!

Here are some other recent developments:

- I have been approved by the board of the Lower Pacific District of the Evangelical Free Church of Canada as a Church Planting Missionary, pending a few things yet to work out.

- We have begun connecting with potential ministry partners, those who will support us prayerfully and/or financially (through receipted gifting to the Lower Pacific District). We created support packages and have mailed many of them out already (if you would like to receive one of these and haven't yet, please email me).

- I am taking Power To Change (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ, Canada)'s Ministry Partner Development training RIGHT NOW to learn how to build a support base.

- Last night Taralyn and I met with a few people who are excited to help with the practical parts of our Access Church pre-launch services! Dan Stewart, a good friend of mine and fantastic worship leader, is set to be our worship leader up to the launch of the weekly church services!

Things are rolling... not always so smoothly but we're definately going somewhere. Please continue to pray for us, and get excited with us about what God is doing in and through us and the ministry of Access Church in Aldergrove!
