The Wedding and The Election

Wow what a week. First the wedding of the century and then the promise of an election that will upset the look of politics in Canada. Exciting!!!

Did you watch the wedding? On Friday when we got home from the office, the wedding was just beginning to stream live on YouTube (courtesy of the BBC). We were able to watch it in real time. Very beautiful! If you missed it you will want to catch the highlights on YouTube.

Now we are counting down to the election. Some really interesting things are happening. Who would have thought that the NDP would be gaining so much ground, especially in Quebec? Our hats off to the youth for taking the challenge and jumping into arena making their voice heard. It's good to see and we hope this continues not just at election time but after. Canadian politics needs a shake up and hopefully we will see it this time.

This week is missions festival and Dad and I are hosting a booth on Albania/Kosovo. We found 3 students who are MK from this area. Last night they came over for supper and then we worked together to prepare Qofti to serve in our booth. They brought pictures and we enjoyed hearing stories and seeing pictures from this region. It was a good evening.

Have a great week.
