Taste of Heaven

Last weekend me and Vanessa got to go visit our friend studyin in Calgary. We were all excited to get out into the mountains after being in the plains for such a long time. So we headed to Johnston Canyon in Banff and had an amazing hike. The sights were so breathtaking and awesome. It was just a little icy on some parts of the trail which made for some fun. Also we got to go down underneath one of the many waterfalls and and then had lunch right downstream from it. Hearing the power of the water and seeing it shape the canyon was too cool.

We also got to go with John to his church, which was started by Iranian Muslims - most of which were now Christians. A man we met translated for us the service which had to of been so hard, I was really appreciative of that. Then at the end the last song they sang had both English an Farse on the screen. I had never heard the song before but i started to try and sing the English version while they sang the other one and it was amazing. I thought about the disciples in the book of Acts when they started speaking in all the different languages and how cool that would be. I also thought about being in Heaven and singing with everyone from all over the world. Could we still be able to hear the beauty in another unfamilair language but in some way be able to understand it at the same time. It was quite a cool weekend with two tastes of Heaven.

When we got back to Three Hills there was a group at our church here from Ukraine and before they left we all sang How Great Thou Art, they sang in Ukrainian and we sang in English. How cool was that!

BIG Thanks to Vanessa and her photography skills for providing the pictures on the last two posts.
