Sunny Sunday

Our first full day in Waskaganish dawned warm and sunny. I was scheduled to preach at 11am in the morning, when I shared from John 1 regarding the first four days of Jesus' public ministry. What a joy it was to worship with these precious people, realizing we serve the same Lord even though we were complete strangers.

After church, Jimmy kindly drove with us down to the hill overlooking the Rupert river, where a miichiwaap (cooking tent), wigwam, and tepee were set up in preparation for a traditional feast later in the week.

After lunch, Jimmy, along with his wife, led us to an amazing vista overlooking some rapids along the Rupert river. Cameron had his unicycle along, so he posed along the bank of the river.

After I preached again in the evening service, we were treated to an amazing moon rise over the stark northern landscape. Our first day in Waskaganish, and already we were loving it!
