   "'Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable. "'Do not have sexual relations with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; that is a perversion. "'Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways...

   Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Matthew 28:18

          Monday June 8  th ~
     Got an early start on the day here in Mattawa, Ontario, Canada.
     First to the laundry mat in town where I had to figure out what coins to use. They have one dollar (Canadian) coins they call loonies.
     Then to the nursing home in town where I was able to go right in and start singing for a large group gathered in the main foyer. Staff administration had a fire drill scheduled, which they delayed for an hour, until I'd finished. Thoughtful!
          Ended up at the public library located in the High School where I tried to publish the newsletter. I was unable to access the web-hosting site due to an error I've encountered once before. So I went ahead and sent out the update without a link to the website. Then went through the process of uninstalling the program, downloading a newer version from the web-hosting site, then reinstalling. I was then able to publish. All this took some time, so I stayed another night in the same campground here in Mattawa.
          Tuesday June 9 th ~
     Drove west for quite a few kilometers today. With an uncomfortable tickle in the back of my throat along with an ear ache, I thought it might be a good thing to rest the voice for a bit.
          Wednesday June 10 th ~
     Drove on across western Ontario to Sault Ste. Marie where I crossed the border into the upper peninsula of Michigan. Continued west for a bit to a campground where I settled in and took an aspirin.
          Thursday June 11 th ~
     More miles, more aspirin.
          Friday June 12 th ~
     Drove across the northern part of Wisconsin into Minnesota, popping vitamins and another aspirin.
          Saturday June 13 th ~
     Feeling a bit better.
     Stopped at the "Pioneer Memorial Care Center" near Erskine, Minnesota and sang for a small group of folks.
          Sunday June 14 th ~
     Attended the "Community Church International" in Thief River Falls, Minnesota where I was given the opportunity to share some testimony about the Lord's provision along with some short messages. Then, after lunch with a lovely Sister in Christ, I returned to the city campground where the host gave me a free night, to help support the ministry. May God Bless Them!
      
And so begins another week.
