Yeah for Rainsuits

This weekend I was down in Toronto for the YP weekend. On Friday, I left shortly after noon to drive down to my sister’s house and my nephew’s one year old birthday. I almost didn’t take my bike because of the threat of rain, but although the ominous clouds never disappeared, it was a cold but dry drive down. On Friday night, there was ringette at the rink there, followed by a general bonfire that night. Saturday morning began at 07:30 when the guys hit the ice for some full contact hockey. You would never think you could chase 30 guys from the bed for something so early in the morning, but they were all dressed and ready to go at 07:30. The day was non-stop activities and was lots of fun. The three meetings were on Jonah and were excellent, bringing up some thoughts and ideas that I had never seen or heard before, but were more than a little applicable to me. After fellowship tea and a meeting yesterday, most of the YP dispersed to their various ways and Rob, Mats and I headed back to Ottawa in just a minor downpour. I can be thankful for the prayers and safety, for we made it home both safe and dry (rainsuits can be wonderful) last night. OK. So we were a little tired, but it was an encouraging and nice weekend just the same.
