About me

Gender Male
Occupation Follower of Jesus
Location Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Introduction I write stuff (Google "Don Rousu" for some samples), I speak, I train leaders, I lead several organizations --- I organize and plan, I recruit and equip volunteers, I counsel people, I study all the time, and pray. Some call me "pastor," but most people have no idea what a pastor does! So that's what this pastor does! But that only tells what I do, not who I am. I am a child of God and a follower of Jesus, although I'm not very good at it. I am the husband of an amazing woman, Ruth, and the father of eight children (four by birth, and four by marriage) and we have been blessed with ten grandchildren, and three step-grandchildren. My family marks the most important achievement of my life, and my greatest joy.

Which is easier to make a model airplane out of and why: a banana peel or a wet sock?

A banana peel because you can make it dry to fly in the sky, that's why.
