Sunset in Kenora as the team arrived Thursday evening
Day 2
Just after lunch the team wandered out into the town and, as is often the case, instantly became a local curiosity. Here are some of the stories:
Lura: I had so much fun. I had forgotten how much fun it was to just bless people with roses. And when they would ask why, I just got all jazzed about saying, “God loves you.” The best highlight for me was the man we saw outside the grocery store (Safeway). He came over to me and I thought he wanted a rose, but he said, “No, I already have a rose. I know I got a rose, but I don’t know why.” So I told him, it was because God loved him.

So then he asked where we were from and we said CA & AZ. So then he said you’re stopping in Kenora and then where are you going next? And I said, “No. This is it. We just came to Kenora.” And he said “Why?” And I said, “Because this where God told us to come to bless people.” And so he said, “I own a restaurant on the shoreline called Sunset Grill and I just love this and I want to know if you would come and bring my people roses.” I said, “We’d be happy to do that—tomorrow.” “Oh great! Come tomorrow and share your joy!” And then he said what hours he is open—11AM to Sunset.
