The Crowd and our friends.

Persian New Years Eve

We had a great time with our friends at the Iranian celebration of New Years last night in North Vancouver.

A trip in the van

Tonight I was the designated driver to a meeting in nearby Burnaby. I had planned to pick up a couple of my Middle Eastern friends to go to our planning meeting for our conference in July. I ended up with a van full of 7 of us. There were three guys from Kurdistan, two guys from Egypt and a lady from Kuwait. Although most of the conversation was in Arabic I enjoyed all the fun that everyone was having. We had a great meeting and made good plans for the meeting to celebrate the community of faith and to encourage one another in our witness to others. What a privilege to be a part of this vibrant community of faith that loves the Lord.
