Alberta Bound! Off to High River (and Saddlebrook)

Yeah!  We made it to Saddlebrook, AB, our work camp, just outside of High River where we will be working this week with Mennonite Disaster Service (MDS).



After registering for our rooms, and eating supper we had an orientation with the MDS reps who got us ready for our tasks tomorrow.  They also gave us t-shirts!  Saddlebrook is a busy place, and home to over 300 displaced people, many who are children.  It will be an early morning with devotionals at 7:10 AM, breakfast at 7:30 and on the worksite at 8:00 AM.  The need here is immense, and we are looking forward to doing our part!
