Today was another day for being an ambassador, and for introducing our newly-arrived companion to parts of the city.
First, we paid a visit to the elementary school, and he met the principal who welcomed us with open arms, even though we arrived in the middle of the day, and there was no shortage of activity to be found. There is only one more week left of school (after today) and as a result, the kids are restless to say the least. Next week will bring a constant flow of activity including a concert and of course the penny tables which have been set up as potential fundraisers for the school.
Later tonight, we returned to the same neighbourhood, this time to visit with some parishioners. Sitting around their table gave us a chance to visit with them and to share our stories all in a relaxed environment. As we walked out the door at the end of the visit, we couldn't help wondering when we'd be back.

I live just a few houses from St. Mike's and I taught in the first room as you enter the side door of this cute school.
You are welcome to visit me anytime. This week is very hectic for me, as I will be flying to Europe on Friday.
Christmas Blessings !
