Both Zoe and I were quite pleased with the turnout of friends and family at our bbq and all the many well wishers dropping by this past week. We feel quite loved thank you!

All week long,I really took the time to savor the moments here in Kenora , the smile on a friends face, the hustle and bustle of the farmers market, our last Shabbat, a quiet walk with my dog, you get the idea! It seemed to me this week lasted longer and was sweeter than most.

The practical things were all finalized this week :
We will have new Israeli phone #'s , and a Canadian # where anyone from home can call and it will reach us there on our cell phones. How about I post that # later when I know for sure it will work ! This company seems to have amazing prices and services I wish we had here in Canada. We got a good package because we are both students with the Hebrew University online program.

We also are going to have food delivered to our apartment the day before we arrive . Our dilemma is we arrive just before the Jewish new year Rosh Hashanah and everything is closed till Sunday . which would mean no food for us for two days. Thankfully Azi ( our rental agent) suggested this market and they will deliver! http://mymakolet.com/
Zoe and I were approved for service at Bridges for Peace in October!
I will post more on this later , suffice it to say we are very thankful for the opportunity to serve the people of Israel in this capacity.You can check out more about Bridges for Peace here at their website. http://www.bridgesforpeace.com/

We have one more sleep till we board the plane , well that's if we can sleep!
until the next time.
Shalom
