.Canada day = moving day.

Today we got to visit our church partners. The group of seven got to go to a camp for the afternoon. They played soccer with some kids and enjoyed conversing with people over delicious BBQ.
The four square group went to a charismatic church service. It was so refreshing to experience worship in ways that many team members had not previously known. We were blessed by words of encouragement and intense prayer for us and our ministry in Montreal.

In most of Quebec, July 1 is moving day. CCM had distributed flyers to the neighbourhood asking if people needed help moving. Only three people responded, so we tried to help them. Unfortunately, our help was not really utilized due to some miscommunications, but the team was willing! And apparently rather than help people move, Colin ate a lot of cake. And Chelsea was a good translator for Colin and Ben D. (I heard pieces of this story, so I'm sorry for not being clear on the details.)

We've spent some time evaluating our levels of faith, hope and love (the theme of SOAR this year) and sharing them with each other. Please pray that God will fill us especially in he areas in which we are lacking. We believe that he will do it and use us to share faith, hope and love with those around us. There has been so much more that has happened, much laughter and connections. I would love to share, but it's almost lights out. Thank you for your prayers, and be sure to ask people about the epic ninja battle between Josh and Drew when we get back.
