He brought Them Safely Into Harbour

Daniel and I stayed at the Artisan's Inn Campbell House, which is the white building in the picture below.


The Campbell House was built in 1840 by James Campbell who was originally from Duncannon, Wexford, Ireland.


James Campbell was a well-respected teacher who was in charge of the commercial school in Trinity.


He was knowledgeable in French and Latin, but highly gifted in Mathematics and Navigation.


I stayed in the Fischer Cove Room pictured above and Daniel stayed in the Loft Room pictured below.


Campbell House has a beautiful view of Trinity's harbour. (In the picture below Campbell House is to the right of the bright red house.)


Fort Admiral's  Point was established in Trinity to protect the mercantile assets.


This site became a lighthouse station in 1871. (Click on the picture above to see the lighthouse on Fort Admiral's Point.)


When we face the storms of life, go to God for help for He will calm the storms, still the waves and bring us safely into His harbour of love.

"He calmed the storm to a whisper
and stilled the waves.
What a blessing was that stillness
and He brought them safely into harbour."
Psalm 107:29-30 (NLT)
