Hey everyone, we just wanted to drop a line from Toronto. Hard to imagine, but it's been almost two months since we've arrived here. We have to confess, we're missing you guys and all the Olympic fun a lot! (Loretta is dreaming about Vancouver; we watch way too much Olympic coverage) In our weakest moments we've even looked at flights to come back just for the party!

U2 is back in town!
Submitted by Albert on Tue, 2009-10-13 09:00.Last time U2 was in town, I looked at a few of their songs on Sunday morning. The podcast can be found at http://www.thetapestry.ca/tappodcasts/bono_and_u2_sermon_vertigo_apr_24_2005
I haven't listened to their new album "No Line on the Horizon" too often, but will do so in prep for their concert in Vancouver on Oct 28th. I will also take a look at their new album @ the Tap on Sunday, Oct 25th.
And I need your help. So, if you've listened to their new stuff... what do you think? You like it? Any God illusions in the lyrics? Any scripture?

On the Trinity and Creation
Submitted by Lil Al on Thu, 2009-04-02 08:38.“Fellowship, camaraderie, togetherness, communion have always been at the center of the very bring of God, and always will be. It is critical to see this. And it is just as critical that we see that the shared life of Father, Son and Spirit is not one of sorrow and loneliness and emptiness. It is not about isolation or self-centeredness. It is all about fellowship. And fellowship means that God is not a lonely, sad and depressed being. As Father, Son and Spirit, living in fellowship, God is essentially and eternally very happy.
I Am Only One
Submitted by Lil Al on Fri, 2009-03-20 17:32.I am only one,
but I am one.
I can't do everything,
but I can do something.
What I can do,
i ought to do.
And what I ought to do,
by the grace of God
I will do.

A Tapestry of Words
Submitted by Lil Al on Mon, 2009-03-02 23:14. BlogSo it has been a long time since my last post. But I think I'm going to start it going again by posting a nifty text cloud of 150 of the most frequent words used on our blog. The bigger the word the more frequent the usage. The black text cloud is Pastor Al's blog, and the white text cloud are all blog posts. Al... I think you need to use love more :).
What do you think of the text clouds? Are they reflective of The Tapestry as a community? Goat, Teresa, Millionaire make me smile. They're kind of like inside jokes aren't they?
