Toronto blog entry #2
it's been a busy few days here in Toronto. after meeting up with Tina the first full day, that night our family went for 'tong sui' at a place in Times Square. the next afternoon, my parents and i visited an elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Lee, whose children grew up with my dad in his former church and fellowship. i was greatly inspired by their servant heart, compassion and unending faithfulness to the Lord. Mrs. Lee especially was an encouragement, as through each word and action of hers, i saw a reflection of His love and goodness. then yesterday i had lunch with Vivienne (my former teammate from the Zuerich MissionsEinsatz 2005) at Bayview Village, then walked around Fairview Mall. at night, the cousins, Laureen, Shirley and i went to Go For Tea, which served not only a wealth of drinks, but fine dining (steak etc.).
which brings us to today, which was also a full schedule, beginning with exploring Vaughan Mills, the largest indoor shopping centre in Ontario, with Annette, Jeanette and Laureen. then, off to First Markham Place with Annette, John and Shirley, and finally a tour of downtown and midtown Toronto via Yonge Street, Avenue Road etc., including stopping off at La Banache (sp?), a Japanese bakery, and dinner at a Korean BBQ place close to Eaton Centre. at the moment my parents are in Hamilton, both visiting friends and McMaster, plus my dad will preach at his old church tomorrow.
i'm enjoying it here, though of course rest is scarce, since i want to maximize the conversation and gathering time with my cousins, aunt and uncle. praying that He reminds me each minute of the importance of life witness to these unsaved yet generous, kind souls, and uses me to the fullest to reach them.
