Vic Thiessen offered a reflection on the recent film, The Life of Chuck, and all the ways that a series of ‘coincidences’ in his life keep pointing to the deep significance of our connectedness and how God’s role in those connections underlines the meaning of life and death.
This second breakfast we had a time of sharing summer recommendations for music, films and books. Walter and Vic Thiessen shared a few recommendations and Jan McPhee shared an Andrea Gibson poem alongside recollections of growing up with Andrea and their family in Calais, ME. Things also got a bit sidetracked with Jan recounting her becoming a viral sensation for her “We love you Canada…” sign at the International Festival parade (see power point), with many positive emotional responses.
This week Vic Thiessen continued on the theme of “God’s Dream” with the help of inspiration from U2.
