On Sunday, we joined together celebrating a traditional North American Thanksgiving (a month early for me, but a week late for our Canadian teachers!). Here are a few snapshots from our amazing evening:
The beautiful sunset I had a chance to see on the way to dinner. (I love having these mountains right out my front door!)
The lovely new apartments where our community will soon unite.
Gathering with 40 people from all over the world - new friends and old - sharing what we are thankful for.
The many hands who prepared all the incredible food!
Watching generations of those committed to serving the Lord.
Thankful that I did not get sick downing this whole plate of food.
Sharing stories and laughter...
...and great pie.
With friends who welcome you in like family.
