We (senior high) were at the Sunny South Lodge (Senior's residence) yesterday singing carols for the residents after which this conversation takes place:Senior Gentleman (SG): You know I was born near Russia. (Many of our seniors emmigrated from there)
Me: Oh yeah, tell which part?
SG: Estevan, Saskatchewan
How True!

This actually has nothing to do with your post, but the other day Jesse mentioned to me that you had linked up to Mike King's blog, which I thought was super fun. The ministry that he does (Youthfront) was the ministry that I was really involved in back in high school. Mike was the trip leader when I went to Israel. Small world...
very cool
his latest book is one that i connect with lot in terms of setting direction for youth ministry
Saskatchewan is pretty communist.
Patrick, I suspect he was comparing the generosity & hospitality of the people in Saskatchewan to that of the Russians ..... couldn't have been the socialist leanings :)
for me it was funny on the 'Siberia/barren wasteland' level
