Final Preparations for our arrival in Toronto

We are meeting this week to make final arrangements for beginning our ministry in Toronto! We have a busy several weeks ahead of us. Thank you for your prayers during this time.

First on the agenda is to prepare for the arrival of 19 students from Germany. We will be taking them through an orientation where they will get acclimated to life in Canada, perfect their English, make new friends and meet their supervisors for their ministry assignments. This orientation will take place during the last week of August up through Labor Day in September.

Second, we will be doing major renovations on a house in Toronto that will be a base for our ministry. It is in a very convenient location and will make our task of travelling to and meeting with the students to provide pastoral care.

Third, Donna will take a few days to drive to Michigan with Anna and get her started at Calvin College.

These will be exhausting days with a lot of work to accomplish. We appreciate your prayers. Your financial support is very much appreciated. Thank you for standing with us.
