Mooving the work along


Funny: There are a lot of cows out here and most of them are strays. Why are they stray? Probably because they escape at any chance they can. So was the case when we opened a gate and were confronted by a 900-pound cow charging full speed at the open gate. We decided to "moo"ve over rather than be looking like ground beef. When we told the farmer about it he told us that he didn't care because they always come back or he would just grab another one off the road.

Spiritual: One of the big focus points from Elder Pieper (who we will all see in the Saturday afternoon session of conference) was to find the elect. We took it to heart. By Friday we were feeling pretty well about our work but neither of us felt that we had found the elect for that day. We were praying like crazy and ended up working through our dinner hour (that happens a lot) and by 8:55 we were still feeling like we had not found the elect. Now you probably thinking, ah this is the part where they try one last trailer and they find a family of 5 ready to hear the Gospel. The truth is, that is exactly what happened! We found the elect after we had faced a trial of our faith.

Where I am at: The power companionship is staying together!!! We are very excited to be able to be here in Window Rock for another transfer. We are feeling invigorated and are excited for the upcoming challenges and miracles
