| Visiting another family in this northern reserve |
The Last Friday on this northern reserve was a really busy day for us. After our visit to S.P., a small city nearby we went back to the Youth Centre by late afternoon.
I was surprised that the Centre was quite quiet because the high school kids would be here playing sports after school.

| P. sharing with the family |
But I was told that the reserve usually would be quiet on the weekend. The Centre aslo closed at 7pm and few kids come as they know the early closing hours.
As we were invited to another home for dinner, we did some cooking at the Centre, and took it to J.'s house.
We had a marvelous time meeting J. and his family, Br. and To., An. and the granddaughter.
It was kinda like a potluck as everybody brought something.
There were excellent food - the BBQ pork ribs were fantastic!

| Yummy Bannocks served at a lot of aboriginal dinner gathering |
Off course you have to have freshly home made bannock
( a must at a native gathering), Indian taco and various kinds of decadent desserts.
The food was great, but the fellowship following our dinner was even better!
We sat around, talked and shared, then prayed for the family and the community.
Our young people led us in a couple of songs. We were clapping, singing and having a great time.
L., one of our team members, encouraged Au. who was standing in the living room, to join us. He did immediately.
I think he also enjoyed the singing. I saw his expression of surprise when he saw us having such a great time just singing and sharing together.
Yes, Christian fellowship is a lot of fun! We can always have a great time without any alcohol, drugs or other illegal activities. Just good clean fun with each other in the Lord!
After dinner, singing and praying together, we went outside and To. showed us how to post in front of the tepee like a real western cowboy!
He also told us that every tepee has thirteen poles. I learned something new today. I loved it!
To. saw us around and introduced us to the horses.
We saw the little pony! This was my first time I saw a pony. How tiny was it!
This was the best time we had in this northern remote community! We always treasure the opportunity to interact and get to know the local people !
