Between Here and There

It's a Zoo Out There!

Between time teaching and planning I have had the opportunity to explore Prague and the beauty it has to offer. At the end of September we had a Czech holiday (Czech Statehood Day celebrating St.Wenceslas) It was also the 80th anniversary of the day the Prague zoo opened, so I took the opportunity to explore the Prague zoo. It was a wonderful time seeing some of God's most amazing creatures up close and it never ceases to amaze me how creative our Creator is.

I am Canadian

Currently I am the token Canadian on staff at our school. In honour of Thanksgiving I invited 7 of my American friends to join me in celebrating a Canadian Thanksgiving dinner. Turkeys are not easy to come by so I opted for chicken. I did manage to find a pumpkin in order to make pumpkin cheesecake, red cabbage for rotkohl and a jar of cranberry sauce. Was nice to celebrate a little taste of home.

Blessed!

Happy Thanksgiving! I always enjoy this time of year. The crispness in the air, the pumpkins in the market, and that reminder to take time to reflect on what we are thankful for. I am thankful for so many things! Ultimately I am thankful for such a faithful God. So much has happened in the last few months and is amazing to see God's fingerprints shine brightly on all the things he has touched in my life.

I have an ever growing list of things to Thank God for and if I were to write it all down I would never be able to get to bed. I think the top things on my mind have been how thankful I am for God's faithfulness, that He fulfils his promises and that He listens to the prayers of His children. A big answer to prayer has been that my long term Visa has been approved! Praise the Lord!

I have been blessed beyond belief and overwhelmed by God's love and blessed to see answers to prayer.

Praise God from whom all Blessings flow!
