The last few months my husband Jake and I were in San Diego since he has had back issues but we are grateful that an MRI is slated for June and we are thankful for those who have been praying. During our stay in SD I flew to Nashville to record vocals for an upcoming CD, all went well and again we thank you for your prayers! We are now back in Canada and Creative Soul Records is in the process of recording BGV’s (Background Vocals) and mixing the album. Many of you are waiting in anticipation, as I am, for this release. Hang in there!!…there’s a lot work that goes into a great project, it’s very exciting!! I would appreciate it if you haven’t already done so to like my page . Thank you for your support!

It’s amazing how quickly a couple of months can fly by. The spring and summer have been filled with activity. Our son, daughter in-law and grandsons moved to Summerland in June. Fortunately it’s only a few hours away! Jake and I spent a weekend there and it was fabulous! In July we went to Manitoba to visit our folks, family and friends. It’s alway great to see and spend time with them. When we returned home we got company, Dennis and Faye from His Will, His Way Ministries from Puerto Vallarta came for a visit and it was Faye’s first time in Canada. We had a great time showing them around Vancouver! Shortly there after a good friend moved away to Edmonton and now I’m off to Nashville! It will be interesting to see what God has instore! Enjoy your summer!

For those who are keeping up with my blogs….Sorry it’s taken me so long to write. We got back from our mission work in Puerto Vallarta at the end of March. There were many mixed emotions as we left. It’s hard when you pour part of your life into others lives and then leave after 2 1/2 months. Yes, it may have been the most challenging experience of the 7 years we have been involved there with missions, but it was also very rewarding and a blessing to be doing the Lord’s work, and to know that we have impacted many people’s lives….kids and adults.
In April I was invited to speak and sing at a “Love In Any Language” Women’s Spring Tea at Sunshine Ridge Baptist Church. It was a wonderful and touching event for the women. Shortly after that Jake and I went to San Diego for a much needed rest.
At this point, we both are looking to God for what He has planned for us in this next season. Getting back I have had a lot of organizing to do, dealing with some health issues that have come up, working on my fall ministry schedule and hoping that God will open up new opportunities to serve!
Keep us and Break-Thru Productions in your prayers and I’ll keep you posted!

For a number of weeks Jake and I have both been challenged regarding our health. Jake got pneumonia and I have had laryngitis and bronchial issues that have been hard to shake. There’s a virus that we caught that has brought on these symptoms. Unfortunately as a result we weren’t able to be involved in our mission as we would have liked during days of illness. However, Jake has gotten better and I am also slowly recovering as it seems to be a little up and down. However, we are doing whatever we are able to do at the Orphanage, Agape home and with worship and music at Paradise Community Center. It’s such a blessing to be doing the Lord’s work here in Puerto Vallarta!

The Christmas preparations may have been busy but it’s been so special to enjoy time spent with family and friends, to give and receive gifts, to taste the delicious variety of Christmas dinners, to get involved with helping the poor and disfranchised…. showing love to those around us, and most of all to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas…Jesus!!

Friday this last week I sang at the Peninsula Retirement Home in Whiterock.
The folks had a great time listening to me sing and dancing to songs like “Mr. Sandman”,”Only You”, “My Special Angel” ….songs they grew up with as well as classical Christmas songs like “Winter Wonderland” and “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree, as well I lead them in a Christmas Sing-A-Long. They had a great time and so did I! I loved singing those oldies!!

Had a great time leading worship and doing an afternoon concert at the Women of Worth Conference in Abbotsford, August 28th. I thank my friends for coming out to encourage and support me. Not everyone who would have liked to come could, but their presence was felt. I know there were many prayers said and I sensed that. Thanks! The Lord blessed and encouraged my heart as well as the women who attended, it was a wonderful day! It was also such a blessing to have someone from Hillsongs working the sound!

It’s been a great summer here in B.C. and I hope that you have enjoyed your summer as well!
In August my husband and I flew to Manitoba. I enjoyed leading worship at a couple of churches in Winnipeg. and also did some of my own music. At one of the churches I had someone approach me after the service to let me know how blessed and touched they were and mentioned what an annointing they felt. I later learned that they were one of the prayer intercessors for another ministry who was interested in having me in B.C.. So on August 28th I will be leading worship and sharing my music and testimony at the Women of Wisdom Conference at the Sevenoaks Alliance Youth Centre in Abbotsford. I will be joining a couple of great speakers and we are believing together with the host ministry -Hishammer Ministries that God has something great instore for the women who come. Hope to see you there!! Check my ministry schedule for more information regarding this event.
