An Exceptional Weekend
I had an excellent week. A bunch of people left us last weekend for soccer tournaments in Edmonton, leaving the campus rather empty for the weekend. The Fall Festival was taking place, and I managed to catch a lecture on Friday evening about human rights and their connection to the Bible. At snack on Friday, a bunch of us decided that something had to be done. We decided to throw a dance party in basement floor Poettker residence. And by that I mean a three hour dance party with a massive boom box.
It's a good day.
On Saturday we decided to go to the Forks and have a picnic. Turns out there was a celebration and fundraiser for the Make a Wish Foundation going on at the same time, so we were able to get our pictures taken next to some mascots. The Forks is a large tourism spot you should visit at the centre of Winnipeg, two intersecting rivers which have been a meeting place for thousands of years and is a major tourist attraction.
Sunday I got to go to my home church, River East Mennonite Brethren. CMU is providing transportation this year, which is very exciting, because I will be able to get to my home church all year. Sunday afternoon was also the Marilyn Peter-Kliewer Folk Fest. This took place in the "back 40", a clearing and wooded area next to the campus. We had various student bands playing, as well as snacks and an amazingly hot afternoon!
Enjoy your fall!
