Sunday was a special day for The Hamilton Fellowships as we had the privilege of performing our first Baby Dedication. We celebrated with the Qua-Enoo family as they had Matthias dedicated to the Lord. We took the opportunity to hold a special service on Sunday morning at Pier 4 Park down at the lake. Along with members of our Fellowship, George and Alison invited friends and family and we all celebrated, as well as covenanted together to support the Qua-Enoos in their desire to bring Matthias up in the knowledge and fear of the Lord.
Monday morning saw us back at the Beer Store. It was a very busy morning with lots of new faces making it a bit chaotic as everyone crowded onto the sidewalk out front of the shop. It was also a bit of controlled bedlam because so many wanted to pull Kim or I aside to a brief side conversation. Some wanted to thank us and to say that after being together on Monday they leave happy and feeling better. Some wanted to complain about others, and still others were sharing some deep concerns about evictions and challenges finding suitable places to live for their family. Perhaps the most encouraging moment was when one of the regular guys was the one to remind me of our prayer time.
In between These events we have been making hospital visits as well as a bunch of arrangements for all of our kids. They are each managing to have an incredibly fun, exciting and full week of their own. Somehow they have all managed to be working at different places across the GTA!!
As for the rest of the week, I have a number of follow up conversations to have already, a wedding consultation, some discipleship opportunities and some meetings that I am excited about not to mention our standing Fellowships gatherings! Praying for a fun, full and productive week.
