Remembering John Hoekstra
It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of John Hoekstra. John has been an integral part of the WISDOM community for 16 years as an employee, and years before that as a WISDOM father. He was instrumental in developing and sharing the Mediated Learning program with hundreds of students and their families, and most recently co-developed the Jumpstart Journal for use in the Mediated Learning High School Workshop. John also shared his love of sports and the great outdoors in his role as our Athletic Director, leading many events for WISDOM including ski days, rock climbing, archery, outdoor survival, track and field and more. John's passing leaves an enormous hole in our organization and we will miss him deeply. John leaves behind his wife, Liesbeth, eight children, a son-in-law and grandson. Please join us in praying for John’s family.

Calgary-Area Cross-Country Ski Club
We invite you to join the Cross Country Ski Club for the Calgary area. Joe and Diane Pollock — retired WISDOM facilitators and current PAC members — have created a system of ski trails on their property just southwest of Calgary, and are making them available to WISDOM families.
No experience is necessary, but you will need to have your own ski equipment. Joe is a former ski instructor who is willing to provide lessons for anyone requesting them.
We are looking forward to seeing you and for a great ski season. Pray for lots of snow!
