1st week in Kamloops, Canada




I’ve survived my 1st week in Canada. It’s snowed on & off but I’ve been able to take a few walks amongst the Snowy hills. What a view of Kamloops just walking the snow covered hilly neighborhood ( and a work out might I add). It reminds me a bit of the Himalayas in India but not quite as large I’m sure. It’s super cold but most buildings are kept very warm. I ate perogies the other night with Heather’s 4 kids- kind of like a post sticker or ravioli but with potatoe & cheese inside or more like gnocchi shall I say. Purchased some groceries yesterday for the first time .That was an experience using Canadian money & paying Canadian prices – 4 avocados are $5 L. It’s like being in America but not…things are way more expensive but the accents are fun!! I’d say I’m getting settled in and knowing the area – but so miss the beach.

I taught my 1st dance class this past week – ballet & Jazz for age groups 3-5 & 6-9. I had soooo much fun I can’t wait for next week! We’ll start working on the choreography for Heather’s dance production in the next week too. In addition to dancing, I will be working closely with Heather using my administrative gifts to implement a strategic plan that will lay a foundation for her new dance studio. She’s in the midst of transition being the new owner and broadening the vision. I definitely have my work cut out for me, but see this as a great training opportunity for growth & experience in the work I’ll be doing with churches (strategic planning that enables the church body to walk out there destiny – personally & corporately). It’s so awesome to see how the Lord has strategically placed me, allowing me to experience my heart’s desire in dance & at the same time provided training ground for my future work in ministry. My finances haven’t fully come in yet, but I’m trusting God for provision. For anyone who’d like to partner with me in this training experience that is essential to the future of church mobilbizing for the advancement of the kingdom of God please contact me : jenniembryant@gmail.com or send donations to Safe Harbor.

You’re prayers & Support mean a great deal to me and I appreciate everyone of you!

Blessings,

Jennie
