So loved.



Two months ago I got married in Vancouver. One week after that I got into my car with my husband and we drove across USA to end up in a small town, Ontario. I was a little hesitant, as I was leaving everything I knew only to start all over. Well it's been great so far – skype, facebook, e-mail and texting has allowed me to keep in touch with my friends from home. (thank you technology) A couple from my church in Vancouver came to visit their son who was near here and they went way out of their way to come visit me ! My husband's church has a great group of young people and the girls my age have a bible study one morning a week and they have all been so amazing to me. And to top it all off I just got a job quite similar to the one I had in Vancouver, a legal secretary. The Lord has been so good to me through the move - I am so thankful.

Then, yesterday, four ladies from the church came over for coffee and brought me a beautiful "yo-yo" quilt that they made for me as a wedding present. (See picture below) Two or three ladies that worked on it as well couldn't make it for coffee – but these ladies came and we had a great time chatting. The quilt is so intricate I can't imagine how many hours were put into it, I felt so loved.

Everyone has been so extremely welcoming it has been amazing. Thank you Sarnia !
