Actually, nothing. But it would mean my commute would be AT LEAST 1.5 hours each way, probably closer to 2 with traffic or public transit transfers. I'm not sure I'm ready for that kind of daily commitment.

Wow. I hope my salary quadruples in 10-12 years. (Har har.)

Kimmio, I hear you. I honestly don't understand house prices at all. A house the same model as my parents' place sold for over $700k - and it cost my folks just under 200k in 1987. We're talking 4X the value in almost 30 years. And it would be considered a 'small' house for where we live...

This is indeed very exciting... especially since there are other churches we are considering "mutual recognition" with (the 'churchspeak' term) including the Presbyterian Church in the Republic of Korea and the United Church of Christ of the Philippines. I'm also interested in this, because the...

Would it be a silly idea to have 'avatar' pictures in the net? Like, little square graphics of fish with a name underneath?

I think it'd be pretty fun to send something from 'the net'. Maybe a bunch of different fish, to represent us all?

Seeler, Newfoundland is all about cod. Cod cheeks, cod tongues, fried cod, salted cod... you name it. They do indeed have access to trout and altantic salmon, haddock, etc. But mostly, it's all about the cod.

So has anyone taken a gander at the UCC 2015 Election Kit? I haven't really glanced at it yet.

It's long, but very excellent.

@crazyheart, the Sandy-Saulteaux Spiritual Centre is actually considered a Theological School, not an Education Centre. It's still going strong! Their Keeper of the Circle right now is Adrian Jacobs (Ganosono), who is a very kind and very wise man. He speaks about how 'the land is our faculty'.

Now this... this would make an excellent story for the Hope Collection.
