Happy Thanksgiving!



Today is Thanksgiving, and we have so much to be thankful for. Tomorrow we will celebrate "officially" with a real turkey dinner at our teammate Shannon's apartment. Yesterday we made pumpkin pies and rolls with Shannon and will head over there early tomorrow to help prepare the rest of the meal.

Tonight was our "Compass" (student group) meeting, and we took the opportunity to share about Thanksgiving, give everyone a slice of pumpkin pie, and play "pin the feather on the turkey". It was a good time of talking with students and reflecting on God's goodness in guiding our lives. Leif made the turkey (pictured above). Isn't it cute?

We miss our families during this time, but are also filled with a peace that only God can give.
