Here for a reason?

At the moment, I am in Flin Flon. Still.

Last night in Flin Flon, we had an amazing event with 24 girls from grades 8-11.

At the begining of the night, the girls were all majorly distracted and were not willing to listen very easily. Flin Flon just seems to be one of those spiritual depressed places. The girls seemed to be having this emotional battle going on almost the whole time. Once Cecilia started speaking however, the girls started to calm down. When it got to the prayer time it was just amazing.

Cecilia got talking to a couple of girls and they ended up dedicating their lives to Christ. So encouraging.

I also had an amazing night.

There was a girl that had come to the night that was on her own. She didn't come with any friends or anything. it was prayer time Ifelt like I should go pray with her. I felt bad for her and she was wiping tears from her eyes. So, I went up to her and asked if I could pray for her. She said she had never prayed before and that the only reason she came was because she thought it would just be a fun night away from the house.
Anyways, she said I could pray with her.
We prayed and I could feel this tension and burden just being lifted off of her. It was amzing. After we finished praying, I asked her if she had a bible. She said no. I asked her if she would like one and she said that she would as she smiled. :D I went and grabbed her a bible and told her I would buy it for her. I then just showed her a couple verses and wrote down my fb if she ever need to talk to anyone.

It was an amzing night and I totally loved it.

This is what I love doing.

This and music. I honestly hope one day I can combine all these things!!


NOW, about where I am... Flin Flon

basically you get to Flin flon and the hiway ends, cant go more north.

We were supposed to be staying in the Pas for four nights however, due to an outbreak of bed bugs in the pas, we are going to be stayin in Flin Flon till next tuesday.

The biggest blessing is that we get to actually be with a family for thanksgiving. The pastor at the local church. Turkey dinner!! :)

The sad part is, I have no cell service, little opportunity to use a computer, and numerous other things...

INCLUDING

I searched Flin Flon tourist attractions and the first thing that showed up was:

Walmart

Walmart?! yes... appparently thats a tourist atraction now.

This town has a walmart, home hardware building center, thrift shop, dollar store, jean wear house, coffee shop, canadian tire and two grocery stores.

I would like to point out that we have already been to walmart three times...

ANYWAYS
NO BED BUGS. :D


so here I will remain... no service.....no internet.... no shopping......no local attractions....no tv......

BUT i am thankful :)

We must be here for a reason right?
