What
once seemed like five MONTHS away is now actually only five DAYS away.
Haiti here we come!! After praying and dreaming of a day that I
would get to visit this country and my sponsor child, we are now seeing it come
to fruition. The packing has begun and now it is time to figure out what
needs to be packed and what needs to stay behind. Unfortunately although
my dog is ready to come with, she is one of the things that will have to stay
behind and keep everything in order while I’m away. :) What an
absolute joy to go shopping for your sponsor child and to pack it in your
suitcase knowing that in a few days you will be able to personally give it to
him. I know God has great things in store for this trip and in all our
lives. Can’t wait to see them all play out! For those of you who
have supported Taylor and I either financially or prayerfully, thank you from
the bottom of our hearts. May God bless you!!The trip is a joint venture with FreddyLink, Smythe Street Cathedral Family Ministries, and World Vision. We will be sending a team of adults, children and youth to go to the community FreddyLink has been supporting for the past 5 years.We desire to take our children and families to partner with our Haitian partners in serving their community and learn how to encourage our own children to be leaders in our community. This is our journey.

A few years ago we discovered that the Mother's Club in Haiti meets on Tuesday morning at the same time as our Mom2Mom group. It was a significant moment for me to realize that as our Canadian mothers got together to pray, study the Bible, be a support to one another and discuss the practical elements of childcare and day to day living so were our Haitian friends.
As a gift to our Haitian sisters Mom2Mom collected items to put together little personal "spa" packages for each mom at the mothers club. We are so excited to gift them with this and a picture of our Mom's!

The Great Valentine Bake Off & Spaghetti Dinner
We had such a great time at the 1st ever Great Valentine's Bake Off & Spaghetti Dinner Sunday! A great turn out of support for our Haiti team and some amazing desserts were showcased by some of Smythe Street Cathedral's best bakers. Our Bootcamp kids had fun trying their hands at waiting tables too!
Congrats to Ruth Mullin for taking home bragging rites as SSC's Best Baker for 2015 for her amazing chocolate cheesecake! Dinner for 2 to Snooty Fox, 1st place ribbon and our one of a kind "Best SSC Baker 2015" trophy.
2nd place ribbon went to Karen Lamey for her Rhubarb Sour Cream Pie!
