Sunday, June 26, 2016, was a high day for the church in Puslinch, Ontario, and the East Canadian Field Conference as we had the opportunity to witness the Koert family—Brother Arend, Sister Yvonne, Martin, and Ashley—sealing their covenant with the Lord through baptism. On this day our church was rejoicing and there was great joy in heaven as these dear souls entered into the family of God.

 

At 9 a.m. on Sunday morning we met at the Puslinch Church and proceeded to Emerald Lake—a place in nature surrounded by lovely evergreens.

Maintaining healthy dentition often seems like it can cost a fortune, but here are some ways to avoid expensive treatments and repair by diligently brushing your teeth and flossing daily, and utilizing appropriate natural remedies for dental and gum ailments. 

Gingivitis is a silent disease of the gums that can go unnoticed until bleeding accompanies brushing or flossing. Eating and dental hygiene become unpleasant because of the gum disease. Common symptoms include irritation, redness, swelling and easy bleeding of the gums. Other symptoms include bad breath, loose teeth, and receding gums that expose the roots of the teeth. The most common cause of gingivitis is plaque formation.

Sometimes we spend so much time wondering what we're supposed to do, what we should be working towards, and how to do something truly meaningful, that we end up getting nothing done.

This summer, I had the opportunity to spend some time with my grandfather and his wife on their farm in the mountains of central Dominican Republic. The beautiful lush greenery and dirt roads are a stark contrast to the dense buildings and asphalt roads of my hometown in Massachusetts, USA. I wish I could say that I’m a country girl at heart, but I've got to tell you how glad I was when I finally hooked my phone up to wifi when I got back to the city.
