It's been a joy to serve as the transitional executive director for the @CRCNA in Canada, and excited to now be given the opportunity to step into this new role. crcna.org/news-and-event…

Something I wrote recently for @ChrCourier, reflecting on some experiences visiting with @CRCNA leaders across Canada and how it reminded me of pastoral whiplash. christiancourier.ca/the-complexity…
Rev. Arie Van Eek was a significant leader in the Canadian @CRCNA. It was a privilege to meet his family & celebrate his legacy today. He was the Executive Secretary of the Canadian Council of Christian Reformed Churches (1978-1998), a precursor to the role I currently serve in.
I love how deacons made all the difference in Amanda and her family finding community in a @CRCNA church. Such a great story, via Diaconal Ministries Canada. diaconalministries.com/how-deacons-im…
Nothing keeps my hands on 10 & 2 like a heated steering wheel in a Canadian winter.
So my daughter was copying out Bible verses during church today...and...seemed to have gotten a little off script.
Candidate examinations are often a highlight for classis delegates. Yesterday's at Classis BC Southeast was no exception. So grateful for solid, competent, and humble leaders who are entering ministry into the CRC.
I’m one of three guys eating breakfast in hotel when one says: “do either of you sing?” No, says the other guy. It depends, I say, curious. “Today is my 76th birthday, and I’d really like someone to sing happy birthday to me.” We sang.
At Classis Toronto today, hosted by First CRC in Barrie. And, sorry to say, I neglected to get a photo with @bengresik :). Next time.
Had the privilege of joining Sonlight CRC of Regina in worship this morning before heading back home. And I got to be there for a potluck (which apparently they do the first Sunday of every month). True confession: I'm one of those people who happens to love potlucks.
“What if, in addition to decline, God is actively at work changing the face of the church in Canada today?” christiancourier.ca/these-churches… Thanks for these insights @rossalockhart
In Regina this weekend for the dedication of the Indigenous Christian Fellowship's new ceremonial garden. There's still some work to do, but it is coming together beautifully.

Follow up to this thread from last week: we had 17 more people meet with the elders this morning (for a total of 27 in two weeks). Certain themes emerged about what drew them to our church.
After church this morning, our elders met with the first of three groups of people who will be becoming members of our church in the next several weeks. It is the next step in what has been a complete transformation of our church over the past year. A 🧵

Found this certificate in the bottom of a drawer today. I learned so much that summer: how I’m made to move, to be outside, and to be in community. I also started writing (a blog) on this ride & taking photos. Couldn’t stop cycling that year & rode to Bragg Creek on Boxing Day.
@PostmaAlbert @CRCNA Thanks for sharing this tribute, Al. @mikehogeterp’s words just published today also paint a picture of a man who was a servant leader and trusted friend. Grateful we live in this legacy. christiancourier.ca/affable-passio…
Ya’ll, my church @VisaliaCRC , just voted with an overwhelming supermajority, to expand our sanctuary and build a new youth and multipurpose building. I’m thrilled, a little terrified, and so grateful to God that our church both has the need to expand and the ability to do so.
This weekend I had the privilege of participating in a youth retreat @campnakamun, which gathered a number of @CRCNA churches from the #Edmonton area. Very blessed! Thanks be to God!
