After a long and tiresome day of climbing stairs, loading and unloading luggage, catchingbuses, trains and then more buses, we finally made it to Vancouver and to the church we are staying at in Delta. A very special thank you to Christy Hansen, our team member that was here for most of last week as well as most of our trip. She met us at the transit station and helped us get to the church. Her experiences last week and the knowledge she gained has made her invaluable on this journey and she is always so willing to share and serve!!! The church we are staying in is Royal Heights church and already they have made us feel like family!!! What a blessing to travel from one side of the country to the other and then up and still find brothers and sisters in Christ!!!
Although it truly was a trying day in many ways, God still blessed us with those special blessings along the way. Like the young canadian lady who jumped (and I mean that literally) onto the Sky train with us and all our luggage, and was so friendly and helpful to the young vancouver family who was intrigued with our accents and where we were from. And then, as we were standing, with our luggage, prepared to wait several more minutes for the 312 bus to come and take us to the church, another bus appeared with no numbers, but simply the word "special" across it. It drove by us, turned and then stopped. The driver asked where we were needing to go and said to hop on and he would take us right to the steps of the church. What a blessing this was. God has sent truly sent a special bus and driver to take us on that last leg of our trip here.
We are all very tired and praying for an incredible night's rest!!! Please continue to lift Mr. Bob up in your prayers as he is still not feeling well. Also pray that tomorrow finds us all rested and ready to begin our orientation, still keeping in mind, that no matter what we our schedule may say, we are already on mission for Him!!!! God bless and thanks so much for the kind words, comments and prayers!!!!
Serving together,
Larry
