Manhattan moments

Our mission continues to be challenging but we know that the Lord

is with us to strengthen us and increase our capacity. This week
we are especially grateful for an understanding public affairs
director who works to ensure that we feel needed.

Since photo opportunities in the office and during international
affairs events are often limited we share now some of the
memories of the week that we did capture on film.

Smiling at the news that we survived the last batch of transfers...
Last Sunday we waved goodbye to an old friend.
He's been like a son to us...

On the subway to Harlem we were bold enough to
befriend every person on the train :)

Over the weekend the senior sisters got together for a Jello cookoff.
Pity our husband's who did the judging. See all the ladies snickering?
(Guess what kind of salad Carolyn made with Jello pudding)
Seeing a stand alone house is an oddity in Manhattan.
The mission home in Scarsdale feels like a mansion to us.

The marquis above a small downtown Manhattan theater
announced the premier of a Sandy, Utah favorite.
We were tipped off by niece Cheyenne's blog.

Pictured here playing one of their greatest hits,
"Banjo Boy"

Such a great concert.
In case any of you need help identifying the talent...

All too soon another week ends. They seem to morph into months, and seasons.

Carolyn's Dad turns 80 tomorrow.
Happy birthday Dennis Allen Creek!!!

The timeless Jerel Bullock celebrates a birthday on Friday the 18th.
Can anyone guess his age?

Make it another great week, and
remember who you are and why you are here!
