We Can Do It!

OK, does anybody else who has one of these sites know a better way of uploading images??? Does everyone else have the problem where you are only allowed to upload in reverse order?? I have to go and number all my pictures and then I have to load them up in reverse and then I go in and then add the text in later. ... or am I just not figuring out something REALLY simple?? Lemme know.

Well... there is no longer snow around these parts, but these pictures sure where taken when there was some! We had missed meeting for over two weeks! Unacceptable! Dang you snow! So one one beautiful Wednesday afternoon all the congregations that meet at our Kingdom Hall cam together to show that snow who's boss. Everyone showed up and helped out. At first the goal was to just get the parking spaces shoveled on the north side of the hall... then more people showed up and we did the other side... then we though, why not just shovel some paths... then it was like... LET'S JUST DO THE WHOLE THING!! YAY! This probably should have been done a few days before though, since now the snow was packed and then in started raining all day so you have snow pack with waterlogged pack below that. What made it super fun was when it started raining in just above freezing weather. Super awesomeness... looks like somebody wanted us to stop, but that didn't keep us from finishing it.

In a few hours, we have the whole lot shoveled, and meetings recommenced. just in time for the new meeting schedule!

That was a few weeks ago, Nothing really exciting has happened since then. With Jehovah's blessing work seems to be picking up a bit too. it's amazing the sources Jehovah provides us from, even from around the world, work can come in and help you out. :) He'll always be there for us, ... now if we can just trust in that all the time, huh?

I hope all two people the probably read this are doing well and find encouragement and strength.
May Jehovah keep you strong.

The north side



Getting started on the main pathway



The hardest area was the driveway as it was the most packed. At one point we probably had about 40 people working on this area.

Paths cut.

Donovan... you are scaring the kids.
Some of the mounds of snow we created seemed taller than Brice!
