Just a tad chilly are ya.
As hard as it may be to understand, it does get cold here. I know you’re going to say, “Have you been to Canada lately? We just had 5 months of winter and your gunna tell me about chilly!” Well I have to admit, it’s not quite a cold here as it gets back home but to the Dominicans and Haitians it feels very cold when it dips to about 12 Celsius or 55 on the Fahrenheit scales. For this reason many of them are very thankful to group of people back home in Sarnia, Wyoming and some of the other surrounding areas. My sister Pat Mensinga and some of the ladies from her church, Peoples Church, in Wyoming, Ontario have been busy sewing and making blankets and quilts to the poor here. My other sister Betty Wildschut and sister in law Patty Huizinga have been busy collecting children medicines, diapers and other baby needs for good friends of ours here. Jim and Sue Coates from England operate Dominican Ministry, http://www.dominicanministry.com/ , which is a food, medicine and clothing ministry for poor families with its main focus on children. They are amazing people and their work never ends. The following are some pictures of their ministry and also huge THANK YOU to everyone who sends the blankets and medicines for to distribute among the poor. Your hard work, generosity, unseen labor and kindness are so much appreciated by all here. Your love will never be forgotten by us or our heavenly Father.
