Bright Days in Nova Scotia


Erica, Tristan, and Ava on the shore of Halls Harbour, Nova Scotia.

After ten weeks of travelling in Canada and living out of suitcases, it was wonderful to arrive today in Halls Harbour (our home away from home for the remainder of our time in Canada). Although we will be back on the road later this week, it is so good to have a place to unpack our suitcases and regroup.

Over the past weekend, we appreciated rich times with the congregations of the Brookfield and New Glasgow Baptist Churches, as well as their local association gathering. It was so good to see how these churches are working together to support local and international missions through projects like their Canadian Foodgrains Bank corn growing initiative.

Tonight, the Kentville Baptist Church hosted a great evening missions gathering where we focused on the ministry of the Guardians of Hope in Kenya and Rwanda. We are so thankful for the committed prayer and support for these important ministries that we are finding among the churches that we are visiting.

Being back in this part of Nova Scotia has also given us a chance to see Tristan, who is doing very well with his first semester at Acadia. It has been a big change from life in Nairobi, but TK is thriving.
