Hey guys, We made it into Canada! It was an awesome journey and we got to be blessed by lots of our friends on the way up. We started by going to Summit County, Colorado and spending time with a load of our friends there. We were able to go to the first SFC meet of the season, which was freaking awesome, worshiping with our family of last year. They prayed for us as they sent us off, which was emotional. Seth started crying like a sissy girl, I kept my cool though, maybe its because i'm english and am too polite to show any emotion. So anyway, we had a little delay getting off because we were told the CV joint on the car wasn't doing too good, which i think means that our wheels would have fallen off. I dont know much about cars by the way. But Seth's stepdad helped us out and put new ones on in just a few hours.

So we finally hit the road and made it to Salt lake city, Utah where we stayed with some good friends from SFC Utah. We had to get the car fixed on Sunday morning because there was a rip in something or other near the wheel joint thing and a dodgy clicking sound when we turned corners. We got on the road eventually, pumped that we were going to be eating a tasty dinner at In-n-Out Burger in little less than 10 hours. We stayed at Zak's pad in Tahoe that night and after a tasty In-n-Out burger for breakfast we made it to Redding California. Staying in Redding was so awesome, we went along to an unofficial video premier of a Christian surfing movie called Walking on Water. When the movie was finished, our trusty friend Tiff Read made a little announcement to the group of rad people from the Bethel School of the Supernatural that we were going up to Whistler to start SFC up there. They all prayed for us and prophesied over us, gave us some amazing words that were so relevant. We met this guy called Ross who was from the Vancouver area and he revealed to us that he's been praying for some people to go to Whistler for quite some time. That evening was a massive encouragement that was really needed.

We drove (well i say we, but as i dont have my licence, i mean Seth) from Redding all the way up to Bellingham, Washington. We drove for 13 hours straight in the rain and stayed with our friend from Ywam The Rev. Michael J Fitz. He is called the reverend because he became a pastor on the internet. A pretty rad guy. We hung out the next day and had dinner with our other friends from Ywam, Adam and Christina. They live just a stones throw from Fitz, and are really cool.

Today we left bellingham and made it across the border. It was pretty intense, The immigration guy grilled us with questions and although he seemed to like me, he really did not like seth. Seth is allowed to stay in Canada until Feburary 12th and if he doesnt leave, they put a warrant out for his arrest. So pray for that situation.

I'll keep you guys updated on our housing situation in about a week. I love all of you, you are cool.
