     For most of September Josh and I have been visiting with my dad in Tecumseh. It has been a time filled with great conversations, multiple trips to Starbucks and meeting with friends and family. We went to St.Catharines for a few days and stayed with the Karanfilis's which was of course a fun time. We got to sit down with Tim who we've shared good time with in Bible college.
     Josh Heymans joined us for an amusing morning meeting with the Woodwards which was followed with post-marital counseling for Josh and I. I am extremely grateful that the Woodwards play such a pastoral role in our lives and they seem to never tire of giving us advice and encouragement. Josh took me on a date to Cafe Amore which was of course all my idea because the pasta there is incredibly delicious. The first time we went was actually on a Valentine’s Day double date with the Woodwards and I've considered it my and Josh's place ever since.
      Even better than dinner at Cafe Amore, was our visit to Scott st. Manor! Heymans, Josh and I visited the group home where we once took part in holding church services, visitations and parties. Just like every time you walk through the doors of the manor, you never know what you're going to get and this time was no different. The Manorites were quick to welcome us back into their world and fill us in on all the going-ons in the little house. It's hard not to be envious of the Christians in St.Catharines who have the opportunity to be with these precious people, much more often than we do now.
     'Josh Squared' and I returned to Tecumseh and Heymans joined us  the next morning at Calvary Community Church where I was given the opportunity to talk about our missionary work in Cambodia. Saying goodbye to Heymans is always sad because I feel that he's become like a brother to me, but then I think of the times where we've met up with him in unlikely places like Vegas and Upstate New York, and suddenly time in between goodbyes doesn’t seem so long. Next up, Josh and I will be visiting Shawn and Hayley Cuthill and their children, which is sure to be an inspiring visit.

 
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we aks or think, according to the power that works within us. Ephesians 3:20
