Tapestry

We are now in Calgary for Christmas time. Calgary has a little bit more snow than Medicine Hat, and it is bitterly cold. The nightly average all week will be -30 Celsius, or - 28 Fahrenheit. It is definitely not metal post licking weather. We got to go to church at Tapestry yesterday. Tapestry is our sponsor church in Calgary, and they treat us so well. They gave us an awesome Christmas present with over $200 worth of Gift cards to nice restaurants and other places, but that wasn't the highlight of church; the highlight was Fran. I have never met Fran before, but Fran has been going to Tapestry for a while now, and she is quite the prayer warrior. She prayed for Pathway, and that we would find a building really soon, but then she went off on a tangent, and the only way to explain it was that she was filled with the Holy Spirit because she started praying about the huge dreams that I had for Pathway that I have never shared with anybody except Leigh. She prayed for the gigantic dreams that we have, and for the people groups we are ministering to. As I said, the only way to explain it was that she was filled with the Holy Spirit and was confirming what we believe God is going to do with us in Medicine Hat and around the world. What a beautiful Christmas gift, thank you Tapestry, and thank you Jesus for blessing us with such a wonderful church family even though they are hundreds of kilometers away.
