After buying our house online, we arrived for the first time ever to this strange city called Fredericton, New Brunswick.  With a newborn and a toddler, we weren’t sure what to expect but promised family out West that we’d be back within two years.

Now ten years later (to the exact day!), we are finally moving back West as we had promised our family.  The fact that we stayed so long is a testament to the beautiful East Coast lifestyle but mainly to the incredibly hospitable and wonderful community and people of St Andrew’s Church.  You became family to us as you celebrated and welcomed three new babies, encouraged us in our parenting and journeyed with us through the joys and difficulties of life.  God used so many of you in such meaningful ways over the years.  Our hearts are forever grateful for how you welcomed and loved us all.

We will miss you and look forward to having any of you over to our new home in BC.

Much love, the Zuidhof Zoo
