WHO
Hi there. I'm Yvonne, and I'm a wife, Mom of 2 and business chick. Welcome!I started this blog 17 years ago, back when most people said "What's a Blog?" (and before Facebook!) Well, I'm still here maintaining this blog when I can, simply to continue archiving all the memories that I have invested here. :)
We moved to Ottawa in August of 2007, but I've spent the previous years of my life in a city called Winnipeg (Ever heard of it?) I've been a worship leader for over 33 years, and I often say that "I don't really like music...I just love worship"
If you like, you click on the CD in the right column of this blog, and hear clips of my album "Only One Love".
And work? I have a small graphic design company (www.pearcreative.ca) specializing in Book Cover Design and marketing materials. I love love LOVE my job!
I share my adventures with my incredible husband of 25 years (Jason) and our two gorgeous daughters aged 16 and 19.

Sweet
This is only your second Sunday in Ottawa. Wait, you have visited only one church. As I am writing this you are in a second service. (I am sure)
The Lord brought you to Ottawa, He ain't finished with you yet!!!!
I will get a good report later on today I am sure.
Love you and miss you!
Mom
Maybe you will have to start your own. :)
Hi, I agree with Nancy, its maybe an idea to "start your own church?"
How's Ottawa?
Do the girls like it there?
Please post some more news, when you've have the time of course...
I'd like to know everything!
I was thinking what Nancy had said even before your second Sunday there. But I didn't want to say anything because that just seems like a lot of work and you'd need members. Some people search for a long time to find a church they feel connected with. There is nothing wrong with that.
There is no hurry now. Maybe you are supposed to learn about how other churches operate. God is in those places as well.
Give it some time and pray lots.
Maybe you could attend the Vineyard ALL the way across town for a few months and then ask if you could start your own sister church. You never know, there may be members in your area. You just never know. (but I'm sure you've thought about lots of scenarios already)
Have you hooked up at all with Faytene Kriskow? She's a fireball! I think she has a website. Not sure what church she's involved in - might be a house of prayer.
*hugs*
Deanna...
I've heard OF her (long story). How do you know her?
Lynne....At this point we don't feel like we're here to start anything. The most I'd do is a housegroup as part of a larger church. God knows tho....I keep telling myself that He won't leave us stranded!
You're not saying it but we all know what you're wanting: You're looking for a church where they sing your songs, aren't you?
C'mon, admit it!
welcome to our life :)

You want a church in Ottawa too? What a Coincidence!! hehe

Ron,
Since my CD is now a couple years old, that would make any church still using them a little behind the times!
Hi ,
Yvonne SORRY but on my blog the "comments' are (Dutch) called 'reacties':) so ehhh I cannot change that in comments, hmmm I don' know why.
Thanks for your visit anyway!
You'll find a place that feels doable Yvonne. Just give it time. Consider this your chance to see what an intercessor in Ottawa is up against. ;-)
I don't personally know Faytene, but my family does. She has hooked up with them a few times when she's been through the maritimes.
yvonne - touche :)
