Today we found out that two grade 9 girls from our youth group were killed in a snowmobile accident. The specific details have not been released about the accident yet.
This evening Trevor is visiting with youth and doing what he can to ease some of the pain and answer questions. He has been asked to go to the school tomorrow and be available for grief counselling for the students. Please pray for wisdom for him as he has never done this before. Please pray for the families involved. One girl is from a single parent home, it was just the teen and her mother. The other girl is an exchange student from Mexico and I cannot imagine how hard it will be for them to deal with this at a distance.
Trevor was scheduled to go on a missions trip to Mexico on Wednesday, but it looks as though that will no longer be happening.

Changes
As many of you already know, Trevor has given his letter of resignation to the church council. It is a long story, but after several meetings and a lot of discussions, we felt this was our best course of action. Trevor's last day of work will be March 31st. Trevor would have loved to finish the school year as youth pastor, but it was just not possible.
We are very sad to say goodbye to the Boissevain MB Church, and we wish them all the best as they search for a new youth pastor.
Please pray for the youth, that they would be able to transition well, and that volunteers can be found to connect with them and lead bible studies.
Pray for our church council moderator, as he has an enormous load to carry right now.
Please pray for us as we have absolutely no idea what we are supposed to do next.
Pray for Trev as he is heartbroken that he had to leave his job before he felt he was done. He loves the Youth very much and he can't believe the situation he has found himself in.
All we know is that God has provided for us so far and he will continue to do so.

Romans 8:35 -39
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Jack and Sam
I didn't get it on video, but right before this I caught Jack take the ball from Sam's mouth, put it in his own, and then give it back to her. EEEWWW. At least we know his immune system is good.
Bubbles
I gave the kids a bowl full of dish soap suds before bath time the other day. They had so much fun! The floor was soaked and so were the kids, but it was a great way to keep them busy for 1/2 hour.
