Well hey proselyting is down and snow shoveling is up. So we had two storms over 18 inches hit us in a week period and another 6 inches are headed here today. Its crazy I dont ever remember this much snow in such a short amount of time. I kind of figured it out and between the two storms I shoveled for like 18 hrs haha. I was sore you bet getting stronger though. So halted a little bit in our progress but planted some good seeds. We have three overaged youth that we got the blessing of the ward council to go ahead and teach them. The parents arent stepping up but the ward realizes that these kids need better influences and the ward is commited to wrapping their arms around them. So ill keep ya posted hopefully we dont get buried in this next storm I love you all take care.

Hey everybody im doing well we are buried in over 18 inches of fresh fallen=snow with probably another 8 on the way. Needless to say we shoveled all s=aturday and church was canceled. Yea 10 hrs of shoveling snow takes quite a=toll on you haha im not feeling very well and im pretty sore. But it was g=reat getting amongst the people helping them out and planting seeds. Jan=d C arent especially progressing at the moment. Just stalling in th=eir progress mostly C. Shes a stresser and I think shes a little ov=erwhelmed but im not worried they will be fine maybe wont get baptized as q=uick as we might like but we will get them there. M and B are doi=ng well the part memeber family had a good lesson with them. Had to make po=sters to break it down real simple and it worked. they understood it well w=hich was great. M asked if she could hang on the poster and look over i=t. We want her to lead out more whereas lately her daughters are set=ting the example. We dont want the daughters to get baptized and then fall =away because of their mom. But gratefully the ward is stepping up and wrapp=ing their arms around the girls. Im doing well hope you all have a great we=ek and have a great valentines day. I love you all very much. In my studies=Ive been very impressed with the love our Savior has for us and the love f=or his Heavenly Father. Let us excercise more love for God as we make a fir=mer resolution to keep his commandments. Take care Elder Powell

Hey everybody things are going well this will be short. J and C are doing well and we really appreciate the ward's involvement with them. Still waiting on the Bishop to finalize the marriage date then we will set them with a baptismal date. M H a PM came to church and that was great. Thank all for what you do. Here is a scripture to ponder Alma 31:5 let me know what you think?With LoveElder Powell
