Well, im home for the holidays... but it was an interesting trip. we left edmonton late because a bus broke down and it caused all the buses to be late. we were supposed to leave at midnight and that didnt happen. we left at 2am instead. it was rather annoying. and tiring. and pathetic. The bus was not working correctly and the heat could (apparently) not be turned off... it was rather hot and sweaty in that bus. until we hit grand prairie. then the bus became too cold. lets just say that we were supposed to arrive in dawson at 740am... we arrived just after 10am instead.
but, in all this madness... i did see a glimps of God. i had originally bought a ticket in september to go home, but plans changed... so we called the bus depo then and they said i could use the ticket for christmas... so, i went last night to get my ticket and the bus guy said that it was strange that my ticket was still in the system... apparently ticket reservations leave the system when you dont use them when you originally want to use them. but mine was still there. then, if you want to change the date of your departure... you have to pay a fee... the ticket guy didnt make me pay the fee... and just gave me my ticket. sometimes the little things are the best. thanks God.

God Works!
isnt it wonderful how God works in our lives? i wonder sometimes how we can go through life without even noticing how God is working.
my best friends were all in town last weekend and it was an amazing time. we spent the weekend having our annual trip to 'Just Christmas', a fair-trade christmas shopping place and then cooking together and playing mutiple games together all weekend. i was amazed at how God has been with us the last 4 years. our group definatly had our ups and downs... and they came close to breaking our group apart, but we overcame them and are stronger today to prove it. how God orchestrated the friendships we have in our group to become our own 'family'. this family includes more than those of us who lived together too. other close friends are a part of this family too. its cool.
that sunday was also baptism sunday at church. it was a real blessing to see how God is working in the lives of friends and fellow believers.
i would write more... and i have lots more to say, but im really tired, and i need sleep. Goodnight world.
