            I am sure you heard this week of the spelling blunder by the Prime Ministers Office this past week.  They spelled the capital of Nunavut as “Iqualuit” rather than “Iqaluit”.  The “u” makes a big difference in the meaning.  In the Inuktitut language Iqaluit means “many fish” while “Iqualuit” is not a nice term.  What a difference a “u” makes!  But it made me think of the difference that “You” make.  In an opposite way your presence and service at Riverside is blessing; but if “You” are absent we miss you and your contribution.  You are important to us and make a big difference.  Remember the saying: Ch_ _ch is not church unless “ur” in it!
