The Mission

It is Sunday so we are off to The Mission. What a beautiful setting for a gathering! Set on a hillside overlooking Lake Okanagan, I thought West Plains was the most amazing setting to worship God but this one is also spectacular. It is starting to rain and people do not seem bothered. Lesley says you can tell who is from British Columbia - they are so used to rain they don't bother with umbrellas!! The tourists have them in their bags, ready to go! There are lots of people chatting up a storm; friendly and welcoming. The speaker is awesome; telling great stories and educating as well. It is time for communion and wow - the elements never tasted so good. They give us a tour of the place and invite us to come back again soon. We have been at Mission Hill winery - a new way of doing church this Sunday!
