Quebec City for Last DEC

Well it's been quite as I haven't been able to get my laptop to connect to the internet while on the road.

Today, Sherry and I drove to Quebec City in time for a quick shop at The Bay.

This parish in the Northern Carlton County is wonderful in every sense. We are excited as months of planing of funiture, and anxiety over meeting our fellow ministers in Christ, finally came to fruition. It was great to meet with the wardens and see their joy and expectation in this new chapter in the life of their beloved parish. We met the mayor who greeted us with a warm welcome as we did a wonderful parishioner and her son who stoped the car just to say "welcome." Our neighbor even brought over a bunch of fresh muffins for our ride home... we still have the tuperware.

We have a few painful weeks of packing and sayings of goodbye to many much loved parishioners on the Lower North Shore who equally showed love and care to us city folk.

Wish us well as these next few days are filled with Diocesan Executive meetings here in Quebec and as we fly back to our much missed children.

Oh... DEC is the "Diocesan Executive Council." This is the governing body of Synod between synodical meetings (our Synod meets every other year). We meet twice a year face to face and twice on the phone.
