More Stuff!






















































































































































































































































































































































It's beginning to feel a lot like winter! Now this is what I expected in WY at the end of October - wind, snow, sleet! I actually broke out my winter coat this morning when I a new friend and I headed out to go hike at Devil's Tower (the first National Monument)! Winter coat, mittens, hat! I actually do like this time of year! And we enjoyed our hike even if it was mighty blustery and the paths were ocassionally slippery with snow and ice!

Yesterday we went into the Black Hills (some snow there too!) and had breakfast kinda of near the Mt. Rushmore area. We also drove through Custer State Park - which was amazing! I never get tired of the scenery out this way!

I've been enjoying my time here in Upton, WY! I've made some good friends and have been able to get involved in different things! On Monday afternoon I got to help with the afternoon "Joy Club." Kids come after school for songs, verses, and a lesson. I had a great time with that!
Tonight is Prayer meeting/Youth group. I look forward to that as well!

Tomorrow, Lord willing, I'll be heading down to Douglas, WY. I'm scheduled in the church there for this coming Sunday. Pray for a good service and for good weather! Then Monday, weather permitting, I plan on heading into SD to stay with friends for a week.
Here are some pics from the last couple of days!

When the Rains Descend

When the Rains Descend
Go ahead and grab your umbrella, because in life, there will be times when you journey through the storms. You see, in this world in which we live, the rains will fall. That is a guarantee. Trials will come - and they are going to come to everyone. Just because you are a Christian, don't think for a moment that life is going to be easy. There will still be pain, sorrow, and heartache. The good news, however, is that, as a Christian, you do not have to weather these storms alone. You have a solid foundation in Christ.

When the Rains Descend is a collection of poems written to be an encouragement to you as you face the downpours of life. May you rest in the Lord and grow closer to Him day by day.
