Life is moving along at a breakneck pace. Since my last blog, we have moved into our new home on the Elbow River in Calgary. As quickly as we unpacked our belongings, we were again packing for our trip to Jackson Hole, WY for the World Conference for eMi. To read more about Celebrate Hope Conference :

Pat and I are both taking the disaster responce courses here and the speakers and teachers have been great. We listened to Ken Isaacs of Samaritan's Purse relate his stories of the past 20 years in relief work and of the important things he's learned. We now see how first responders like Samaritan's Purse and World Vision have a role that eMi can fulfill as we come along side these outreach agencies in rebuilding the infastructure of an area hit by disaster.
We ask that you pray for us here, that people be empowered by all that they learn and that God's good works be commissioned through this conference.
In His Grace and Service

Hey Patrick and Joan, Ive been looking for an update. You guys must be busy doing all that work for God. And probably preparing yourselves for return.
I pray all is well. Love from Kelly and Dakotah.
