The past four months

What have the Sidell's been up to for the past four months????

Enjoying the "Sunny Season" of Vancouver!   The rain and clouds are coming. We know it and we're enjoying the last few sunny days while we can.  Sorry if you've missed us, but we hope y'all have been enjoying life these past few months.  Here are some highlights you may have missed...

July
We celebrated Canada Day on July 1st.  Happy Birthday Canada!

Sabeena and Sara, two of my favorite co-workers who happen to be authentic Canadians!

We traveled back to the Carolinas to see our family and friends! We had a great time introducing them to some Canadian culture and foods.
Cheezies
Tim-Tam Slam "Gram"

We had such a wonderful visit seeing everyone.  We even made it to Wilmington! Can't believe it had been two years since our last visit.  We sure do miss living there.

Love Wrightsville Beach!

September:
Matt started his LAST and FINAL year of school! Yay! We're on the home stretch! Matt is also thrilled that this is the first semester without biblical languages.  He's getting a lot more sleep...

 He also started his internship at First Baptist Church Vancouver.  For his internship, he'll be working to develop small group ministry at the church.

Along with his studies and internship, Matt is a TA for Paul Stevens and Gordon Smith, two of his favorite professors.  He's excited about working with them and learning from them.


Stay tuned for October's update...
