This day has shaped up to be one for the history books, not only in Daniel's life, but also mine. Today was a day of restoration as God allowed me to see an old friend and enjoy fellowship that I haven't had for some time. But bigger than that was our dropping Daniel off at Master's. I had the chance to go with him as he signed in, and boy was I surprised (and tremendously encouraged) as old friends and college chums randomly shouted out my name and tackled me in an act of joyous reunion. Seeing everyone reminded me of the part that I played there, the impression that I left, and the memories (good and sad) that God made in my life there. I am excited for my brother as he begins this new part of his life, but inside I am mixed with curiosity and slight fear of what will happen in his life there. I know that God desires the best for him, and so giving him over to the Father's care is a rich act of faith, hope, and love. May he find a home there among his peers and professors. May he take full advantage of the time that he has down there. And may he leave his own impression down there - oen that centers upon endearing others to Christ.

Good to hear about your Cali connections. Still no place in BC to live. While you are at The Master's College, could you ask JM to pray for a place to live in BC. He probably has some extra weight we could call upon. I will be sending my indulgences via FedEx (sorry about the reformation humor of you being on Pilgramage and JM be some papal figure.)
