The Big Announcement

After 40 years of service to the SDA church in various capacities, my father is officially announcing his retirement during the Alberta SDA Conference staff meeting this morning. My father has left a legacy of humble servitude to the institution and belief system that he so vervently believes in and I am proud of him.

This decision will bring many changes to our family over the next few months but I believe they are good ones. If there is one thing I know about my parents is that no decision they make is rash. I know they spend many hours in prayer and meditation before they act. But when they do act it is decisive and they commit to the path laid out before them.

On a side note...

It has become so apparent what so many expect of Tess and I! I smile at all the guesses as to what the "announcement" was going to be and I know my father would be happy to see the Daquila name carried forward. So don't be surprised if the next time there is a big announcement it may just be what you all thought this was about!

Back on track...

Please continue to keep Dad in your thoughts, prayers, and give him a nice big hug when you see him. We love you Dad! God bless you as you enter this new chapter in your life!
