THE ART OF NEIGHBORING


While in NJ, our friends Steve and Mary gave us a copy of this book, remarking that it was similar to our approach to church planting in Spain. We have enjoyed reading it and sharing it with our friends in the USA. We are trying to give away as many copies as possible.  Christian BookDistributors has actually given it away as a free ebook.  It is also available on Amazon. The picture on the front cover represents your home and your closest 8 neighbors. Can you name the 8 neighbors that live around you? Great ideas on how to network in your neighborhood.

We recommend it and here is the Link for the trailer:

First Presbyterian Church, Schenectady New York.

 One of our supporting churches is First Presbyterian Church in Schenectady, New York. This church dates back to 1760. What a privilege it is to be partnering with a church that is over 250 years old. We are thankful for the 25 years of partnership with them and the opportunity to be part of their 2013 Missions Conference. 50 % of the churches budget goes towards missions.

Deerfoot Lodge - Log Cabin building

Sharon and I had the opportunity to help out at the Deerfoot Lodge Fall Work Weekend, October 11-12. This was Peter's first overnight at Deerfoot since 1976. (Was on staff for 4 summers) Great time of fellowship and a learning experience as Peter got to help with the construction of a Log Cabin.
