Canada in grayscale
This time it is the first time a small slideshow. Because somehow I was somewhat dissatisfied with the colors and the quality of the pictures I've decided to convert the images to grayscale. This gives the images a documentary somehow impact what they are basically even.
aim of the trip was a small church in Port Alberni, on Vancouver Iceland to support their work. The church was started 3 years ago, initially grew rapidly to about 80 people and last shrank sharply again. Thus, the mission noted that the new city church (Gateway Community Church) and they invite people to visit the good news to hear.
The trip took on the first day of Fresno to Seattle. They are about 1,500 kilometers. It was a long and arduous journey. It took several hours to leave California and then we went through Oregon and finally in Seattle, Washington to spend the night. In the night I got (toby) chills - the first sign of an impending flu. As of noon on the second day after the "Pain Killer" had subsided, I was use to be nothing more. So I was the first few days in bed and the rest of the team from Fresno set out to beautify the city and the people to do good. Fences were erected, painted walls, gardens dug, built small bridges, etc. I can with some 60 people. Profit before these days Work has brought a flyer to every house to invite for the Sports Camp which started on Thursday. When distributing the flyers the opportunity was taken to pray for each of the houses, or rather for their residents, and to bless them.
Wednesday was Canada's birthday is celebrated with a parade. The team took part in some of the people of Gateway Church and had a moving van with the slogan "Sport Alberni. Some children were playing on the wagon hockey and basketball. It was also advertised for the Sports Camp. I was on this day fairly fit and did the organizers of the parade the favor a few (hundred) to take photos of the parade. Not really a big sacrifice for me :)
Thursday and Friday was a park in the Sports Camp. It came enjoyed the two days over 300 children a morning full of various sports, water fights and a free lunch. On these days, many children heard the first time that God loves them and they can have a personal relationship with him. Some children accepted the invitation (no call) her life to God.
Saturday was our day off and we spent that on the west coast of the island on the beach. It was something cool but with beach volleyball and grilling is a fast-warm. Still, it is unusual that in North America, fast times in 1-2 hours Directions purchase takes just a few hours "to depend". We were about 4-5 hours on the beach and spent about 3.5 hours, however, to the street.
on Sunday was a service in the open and there were about 50 people more than the previous Sunday. After the service task it REAL fast food. All team members were given a final Burger pressed into his hand and jumped into the car - we had to reach the ferry on time. It was good that we had started so quickly, because after the last car of our convoys were only 2 or 3 cars left on the ferry. We stood right at the door of the ship. The rest of the ride home was about how the approach with the difference that I was not sick. And now the pictures - which I assume that 95% of readers have first seen the pictures ... :) I do not know why I have written so much this time.
