Friday, May 9 the Missions Conference Pass the Torch began at Huron Chapel Evangelical Missionary Church. There was special music by the Martin family. Ellen Krahn brought much encouragement to those in attendance. She is involved with World Partners which is the Mission organization involved with the Evangelical Missionary Church of Canada. The El Salvador Mission’s Team for 2008 took turns sharing their motivation for joining this year’s team. At the end of this year the houses should all be completed in the village where those returning worked last year. It is good to be able to share resources with those who have so little in this world.

There have been reports of parties with family and friends. Happy retirement wishes are extended to Quincy Bridge from your Auburn friends and neighbours.
