MISSION: Uganda Blog Update 10-23-2008

Greetings from the Yukon! We’re in Whitehorse, YT, Canada. We had a meeting here last night in Calvary Baptist Church with Pastor Larry Harrison. It went great, and we are presently staying here until Saturday, when we will catch a ferry out of Skagway, AK to Juneau.

Tomorrow, I’m going to attempt to get the tires (the American ones) put back on the car, and the Canadian ones sold back to the company here in Whitehorse. Then, I’m calling up the folks I originally did business with to present them with the bill. Pray it goes well.

Here’s an interesting thing. At the last possible minute, we drove up the road out of town to look for bears one final time before catching our ferry from Kodiak to Homer, and this is what we saw:

Pretty cool, huh? I had been praying that God would help us see this, the largest bear in the world, from a safe distance, from the road, in the car, where everyone could see, and here the bear was, almost like he was posed just for us. We were all real excited.

We’re enjoying the North Country greatly!
