We went to the Interdenominational Good Friday service at Pearkes Arena. It was such a really great service they did a really great job not just incorporating the different "types" of churches that were there, but also a great job covering the generations.
I got to see a couple people I haven't seen in a while including my cousin Debbie.
Then in the evening we went to youth at Colwood. A part of me will always long to be in youth ministry. It's odd to be there--it's not Emmanuel--but it was exciting at the same time.
The kids at Colwood are super sweet, kind, they behaved for an hour and 45 minutes of teaching--I don't think that could have happened at Emmanuel. 20 minutes the EC kids start to fidget, poke each other harass each other......
The teens texted questions to the panel--we responded. It was a great time of unity rather than parents vs teens.
Lots was discussed, a lot of familial issues--I think some really great ground was broken.
It was also a great distraction for this week--I am not looking forward to this week at all--the bright point in my week is my sister is coming again from Edmonton to be with me for the bone marrow biopsy and my "chemo" lessons. It will be a great time of being with my big Sister.
Maybe I can convince her we should go to Murchie's again for tea....mmmmmurchie's.
