Shawn, Bev, and Family

Welcome to the twinhouse! Shawn and I were married in 1997 and have been blessed (yes, blessed!) with 2 sets of twins. Alexander and Benjamin were born in 2002 and Hannah and Jacob joined the family in 2004. We created this blog to keep friends and family updated on the excitement in the twinhouse.

The Celtic Christian Tour

On Wednesday nights here in Edinburgh, there is a great ministry happening called the Celtic Christian Tour. It is the only free city centre tour available and it is terrific! Shawn's mom and I went on Wednesday night and really enjoyed it.
They begin at the castle and work their way down the Royal Mile (the high street) making frequent stops to share stories about the city and country. Two men are dressed as Cuthbert and John Knox and they both portray their roles fabulously. It was very educational and interesting. I was so impressed that they give a clear presentation of the gospel during the tour....John Knox is retelling one of his sermons.
At the end of the tour we arrived at a Christian Cafe where there was free coffee, tea and cakes!
Even though it was quite overcast and cold, we enjoyed our evening. Here are some pics from the evening:

This is when John Knox gave the gospel message and invitation outside of the incredible St. Giles Cathedral
Here is a statue of David Hume (who used to mock Christianity). This was about half way through our tour, which was, fortunately, all downhill!

So if there is anyone reading this who may be in Edinburgh during May, June, September, and October.....please look up the Celtic Christian Tour. It is a great ministry which should be supported!
