Off to Regina with You

Hey Folks,
Thought I'd let people who are interested know what's going on in the Crawford household. I am off to Regina to become an RCMP officer. I leave a week this Sunday and am gone for six months.
Chelsea is staying in Victoria and moving in with some good friends until we figure out where we are going to live in Aug when I am done training.
It's been an interesting and challenging journey up to this point, but as is usually the case with these sorts of things, God has shown up along the way. Or more acurately, God has been going before and walking with us along the way...we've just taken notice of Him at different times. (I'll tell you specifics if you ask...but mini-miracles like instantly answered prayers, unexpected blessings and abundant grace) Gosh He is good.
Thank you to those of you were references and have been praying for us. Please keep praying for us.

Please pray:
1) That Chelsea (and Charley) would do well while I'm gone and that the transition into new living arrangements goes smoothly.
2) That moving and prep to leave goes well this week and we find enough time in the week to do all that needs doing.
3) That I would remain injury free during the physical traing over the next 6 mos.
4) That we would end up in the community God wants us when we finally get posted.

Thanks again for your prayers and friendship.

Hey :)

Hi Terry,

I do believe we met once before at Laurel's concert at NSA. I'm one of the nurses who SOOOO looks forward to doing diabetes camp with your LOVELY wife :) I have been praying for you both as I heard from Chelsea's mom that this was a potential next step for you. Will continue to pray and PLEASE say hi to Chels for me and (as you asked Teresa to do to Greg) give her a big wet kiss for me :)

Blessings :)
Rebecca.

Enforcing Justice

Terry,
Long time. Great to hear your up-date! I can totally see you as an officer, enforcing needed justice on our globe.

Just don't forget to maintain those English lit roots. Perhaps when dishing out advice to speeders and offenders you can pull out a few time honored quotes.

:) blessings, Kaile

To speed or not to speed....

Thanks
I wonder if people would appreciate Shakey when getting locked up for crime....? Probably.

Wow!

Hey Terry,

I had no clue that you guys had such adventurous plans. I will definitly be praying for you- especially that distance will make the heart grow fonder! hmmmm!

Excuse my ignorance but as a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer in training, will you be learning to ride a horse as part of the training? Or is that all old school?

I hope you have much fun and success. BUt most of all, I hope that, for you AND Chelsea, this will be a time of drawing closer to the Creator and learning to lean on and depend on him even more.

Blessings to you friend.

Teresa

Thanks T

No, unfourtunatley I don't think I wll be doing whole lot of horse riding. Maybe a motorbike eventually...a 'steal horse' as it were.
Chels and I appreciate the prayers. Keep em coming.

Give that hubby of yours a big wet kiss for me.
