Well, we arrived in Canada the evening of August 2nd. My parents picked us up at the Vancouver Airport and we drove through the night to get home. It was a great feeling crawling into our own bed after being away for 6 months. A lot has transpired here in our absence and we are busy catching up with family and friends.
On Friday we had the chance to help out with the container that is going down to Guatemala. We sorted through a ton of donations and loaded the selected / needed items into a Uhaul and took off for Canmore! After 8 hours of driving we finally arrived! We were blessed to be able to stay with Juerg and Esther Salzgaber, a family that was working with us in Gautemala for a couple of months. Juerg is the one organizing and packing the container which is going down to Guatemala in a couple of weeks. He has managed to get donated an industrial kitchen for our new project - what an amazing thing!
Rocky has been able to find a bit of work to help offset the shortage we had in our support over the past 6 months - PTL! I am going to be working with Bev Crozier in the Kamloops Impact office, sprucing up the ministry handbook and other documents for our website.
We are also spending some time getting ready for our "share event" on August 26 7pm at Bible Truth Church here in Kamloops. We sure hope to see you all there. We are excited to share with you how the Lord is using us within Impact Ministries and what the future holds.
Blessings,
Karren

Thank you so much for helping with the container and driving the U-haul to Canmore. You both are such a blessing not only to us but also to the Ministry. We are looking forward to spending time with you at your "share event". God Bless you both.
