toronto (part one)...

22.09.2005
weather was changing... it was much cooler when we got to toronto... i stayed at rowena's house... just less than 5 mins walk from alfred's... this area is pretty new... it is far far north... north of 16th street... just a few block from mccowan...

it was so good to be in canada again... can't imagine that i was here 3 years ago...

esther & alfred had some admin / business stuff to finish off this morning... so rowena drove me to a western mall - markville - nearby for killing time... i did a few things - to check my cibc account... to exchange currency... to buy a phone card from fido... and i did a quick shopping as well - bought 2 casual shirts from old navy... then i joined them at market village to have lunch with alfred's parents...

the choir in toronto was hugh... they had around 50 ppl (regular + ad hoc)... and we had the first rehearsal tonite...really not bad... u can see that bro & sis are praising God from their hearts... doing their best... just the stage is bit too pack...

the first gathering tonite in scarborough area...

we had problems with ppt projection... first, we only had an hour for ppt try-out since their technician could only come by 6.30pm... well... okay...but, for some unknown reasons, none of our 3 laptops worked properly with the projector in that church... the image was so dim and blur... so we tried to work on the PC system from the church... yes, the image was back to normal... but the PC re-booted itself every 5-10 mins... //sigh...

only 5 mins before the program started... and we had warned the worship leader on this situation... but we still needed to make a choice... and we chose to take the risk and use the church's PC... so we prayed, we prayed for the PC... we prayed that God would protect the PC from any attack...

thanks God... the PC worked well without rebooting itself during the entire gathering (which lasted for 2.5 hours)... hallelujah...

forgot to introduce a new teammate from hong kong - tony... deacon from rev mak church... to experience how the ACM tour would be... he worked with me on the ppt... so both of us had experienced an unforgettable God's miracle tonite...
