Hello. Well after four long days of observation (meaning: I sat in the classroom, took notes, walked around, answered students’ questions and sat again) I finally taught. My cooperating teacher (CT) wanted me to observe for four days and I am glad they are behind me. I must say that all I learned through these [...]

New Culture
Thanks for choosing the topic of this post sista C’co.
I was asked what kind of new culture the youth meetings were creating. Maybe “culture” isn’t the right word but I didn’t know what other word to use. Last year we had youth meeting every other week. It was the first year our teens had a [...]

Youth
We were four as usual, sitting at our kitchen table talking about church and youth. Our stomachs were full of shepherds’ pie, beets and the eve’s doughnuts that we had to bring home from a supper at our friends’ place. After talking about the challenges and differences there is between our two churches and dreaming [...]

How narrow is your door?
I went to prayer meeting tonight. I guess I thought it was at 7:30 (like any good church you know…) but I when I sat down I thought I was mistaken because the pastor was giving a class on how to do evangelism with a special set of cards with drawings on them. I was [...]

Mont Royal
There’s something happening every other week with the Verdun youth group. It’s either on a Friday night for a Bible study or on a Saturday afternoon for anything that’s different. Today we went sledding on mount Royal. I had told the leaders it would not be as easy if we’d have a bunch of six [...]

Inter Youth Group
We started the inter youth group (comprising teens from three “churches” in the area) last October and we got used to being half teens (mostly around 16 years old and up) and half leaders at the meetings, so around, 10 people. Last night was quite different.
When we got to the church there was a mom [...]

We (two people from two evangelical churches in our area) invited the young people from our churches and friends who have no youth, to join together and create a youth. We were 12 people (minus 4 leaders and a young couple who gave the Bible study), so [...]

Random things about today
8:30ish: I broke my capo.
9am: Rachel and I got to the bus stop just to realize that we were late. We simply took her car to get to church.
9:30-12ish: Church. For the first time, we were asked to choose the songs. So Rachel and I chose songs that we knew we could actually play (we’ve [...]

Brain Fuel
Many little things happened lately. You’re right, university has started again, it’s going pretty smooth so far. I try to make it a point to pray for my teachers.
I. I’m learning about HTML stuff right now, which is challenging for me (I didn’t know that, but ESL teachers have to know how to create “real” [...]

Church
I realize more and more how indecisive I am in life. My roomates could tell you a whole lot about that. I think that my “problem” is that at times I don’t really care about having a yellow or blue kitchen and at other times I don’t see why I should pick yellow number 492 instead of yellow 392 [...]
