One of the blessings of Sue's cancer is her forced 'early retirement'!  Now she is free (wellness permitting) to do some things that the 'not yet retired' are precluded from. Sue exercised one such freedom today and accompanied Geoff on a visit to Woolaning Homeland Christian College to open a new Skills Training Facility.

As well as catching up with some of those with whom we lived and worked from 2005 - 2007, we also took the opportunity to revisit some of our 'special places' and to reflect on the blessing that the time at Woolaning, and in Litchfield National Park, was to us and our family.

As we walked down to Wangi Falls from the carpark we talked about people, days, events, experiences from our past and the emotions these memories evoked.

We considered God's amazing creation as we gazed at the falling water and recalled the times that we spent swimming late in the afternoon when all the tourists had gone home and the shadows were low and long. We reflected how the water not only cooled our bodies but also ministered to our spirits.

In dipping her feet and hands once again in the Wangi pool, Sue connected with the richness of the past and stepped out into the future with gratitude and hope in our faithful God.

It was a special day.
