After almost four years of dealing with government bureaucracy both here in the states as well as Canada,I have finally received my green card. Woohooooooo!I'm good now till 2016.I am thinking that in a few years I will apply for citizenship. However unless I can get dual citizenship I wont do it.
We received news today that our pastor would be leaving our church as of Oct.31. Needless to say this came as great shock to most of us. After much discussion in our home we realized that we all move along in this life and that the pastor is doing this both for our church as well as advancing his career. I have to say on a personnel level I will miss him and his family as they were my only connection down here in Hanford to anything Canadian. Darylene was quite upset but also saw that eventually we must all go through some changes in our lives, some painful,some not. Besides I told her that in this day and age it isn't like you couldn't keep contact with the pastor. I told that I was certainly going to and I can only hope the best for him and his family in the future.They are a wonderful group of people that have had a profound impact on me and my family.So once again"GOOD LUCK LLOYD,KATHY,LUKE,JONATHON AND ANDREW!!!" from Malcolm,Denise,Darylene and Travis.
