Hi Folks

Sorry for being so slow on the draw these days. We are on the last day of working with the Short Term Missions team from the Crowsnest Christian Centre which is our home church. We are both very tired and have the weekend and all of next week filled with activities that have to be done before the next team arrives on March 1. The team is from Cornerbrook NFLD so I expect that there will be no shortage of laughing.

Our internet is still not in at home and we cannot send out our current newsletter on Outlook so now have to type in all email addresses into gmail and then send. We will be late by a month for sure.

All the Best
Tim

Hi Everyone

Lots of team activity and recovery from team events. Our next team will be from our home church so we are pretty excited about their arrival on Feb 8.

Our daughter caroline is now visiting us and will be leaving Monday. We completed a beach day and visited antigua.

Trees for Global renewal is moving along well with the web site complete. We require the completion of 2 memorandums of agreement before the site can go live. I will be visiting the proposed first planting site on Feb 20 to 21 which could be interesting since the Nature Defenders are proposing different tree species for planting than I had thought we would plant.

Coffee sales are slow and I am still hoping and praying that the idea will catch on that this fund raiser is firstly a way for Canadian youth groups, church missions groups and other groups and individuals to raise money for themselves primarily and secondarily to bless the underpriviliged youth attending the William Cornelius Vocational Training Centre. Please consider a CoFE-Socially Responsible Coffee Sales for your groups next fund raiser idea.

Sorry for not writing for so long. Will try to tighten up on this in the future.

Thanks for tuning in.

Tim
