The Beauty of Service

Last Saturday I had the missionaries helping us out with the yard, It had about 2 years of fallen leaves, and they cleaned in less than 2 hours. Wood and shingles from the time we fixed the ruff still in the garden,
I finally can plant a garden.
That's what I call team work.
All working with a smile... That was nice.
And a big smile for a job well done.
Thanks Elders

Yeah for missionaries. Labor is pretty cheap too - a good meal, which you have a craft for.

I love your new look - very beautiful. Good for you for taking the missionaries up on their offers to help.

Scripture of the Day

"Bring ye all the tithes
into the storehouse, that
there may be meat in mine house,
and prove me now herewith,
saith the Lord of hosts;
if I will not open you the
windows of heaven, and pour
you out a blessing, that
there shall not be room enough
to receive it

-Malachi 3:10-

"Friendship is
a plant
which must
often be
watered."

-German Proverb-
