Gorgeous and rainy BC

If you are wondering what the weather is like here in BC... 
It is rainy. 
If you are wondering how we are doing... 
We are blessed! 
Staring September 2011 I could not stop and think how blessed we are! 
We have entered in a completely new season of our lives.
This summer my maternity leave was coming to an end and I started asking God for a job, a good job that I could pay for my school with, without taking another loan. I would walk and pray... 
For Terry's job, too, as I knew we had to live and pay rent somehow. He was ready to work anywhere... But it wasn't God's plan for him to work at a store or at a factory, or at the warehouse. He had a better plan: APA Youth Pastor!!! 
We are very happy and thankful for what God had in store. Both at school, both working, both enjoying our baby boy growing. So those jobs gave us an opportunity not to take another loan but be able to pay for school. However, it is not exactly just a job for me or Terry. 
We LOVE being at APA! 
We LOVE the kids there! 
We LOVE the people there, too! 
Staff is AMAZING!!! 
We feel loved and accepted. 
At the school where I work I have built connections with students and it is my small mission's field. With people who don't celebrate and believe in Christmas, we still get to talk about it and celebrate it in class. Sometimes it is not about hard truth of the Bible (which it is at some point), but it is about building relationships first. 
This Christmas has been fantastic, although we did miss our family, but we are so blessed to have christian family here that we had a great time with. 
It is 2012 now, new season, new year... it could be something new for every single person. My new is being support for others, I really want to be there to people in need.
