Happy Thanksgiving Canadian style

Yesterday was Canadian Thanksgiving. In 1859 Thanksgiving for Canadians was moved to October so they could enjoy the outdoors during the holiday. Happy Thanksgiving.
As my family and I discussed things we were thankful for one of the items on top of the list is our supporters, those who pray and or financially support us regularly. Thank you so much. Without you we would not be able to be part of the fantastic ministry.

This morning's temperture was 0 degrees celsius and our first snow fall is predicted for tomorrow 10/11/06. My family and I plan on taking an overnight trip to Grand Forks this weekend. Lisa and I still have to get some winter wear for this quickly aproaching cold weather.

A couple people have asked about a how they should give a special holiday gift. If your desire to do this please send it directly to us at. - (Special postage required)
McGraths - Box 148 Lac du Bonnet - MB Canada R0E 1A0.

While on this note please pray for us and for God to continue to meet our needs in this area. Initially, before deciding to come to Canada the majority of our support was pledged. We have found that several pledges have not been recieved.

Our fall and winter retreat/conference season is great. We have been booked nearly everyday since summer camp ended and that trend looks to continue through the Christmas season. While this is great it also means a lot of hardwork for me and my staff. Please pray that God would strengthen us and build us up together to glorify Him in all we do. Each week the staff get together and share about opportunities the have had to share Christ with guests.
