Levite Summit
I am pretty stoked to be involved in Kelowna’s first Levite summit coming up soon Feb 15 -16th. It’s essentially a gathering of musicians, dancers and visual artists who are interested in ways of exploring their Art both in the faith context (church) and also in the wider community. I have had a heart for this kind of thing for as long as I can remember. I was originally inspired by the ideas that the author, Francis Schaeffer shared when he said that it is artists who translate lofty theological and philosophical concepts to the general public. I really believe that the Arts are a powerful way to share ideas with others. I am especially looking forward to playing music with some great musicians and learning some new stuff from some really talented communicators.

Beautiful Washington state
I had the thrill of travelling down to the beatuiful Mount Baker In washington Sate in the US this past weekend. The trip was made extra special because I was able to travel with my oldest son on the weekend of his 20th birthday. When we lived in Vancouver we would often see Mount Baker towing in the distance so to take the 54 mile trek up it’s snowy slopes was quite the treat. I must say though that it was a bit scary on the roads but after hearing that they can get 28 feet of snow up there in the deep winter I felt a lot better that we had gone at the beginning of the season. I had a great time with some friends from North Langley Community Church which was so cool for us. To be in the mountains is so very inspiring and I felt replenished by the whole experience.
