Elder Gowans had arranged to mow a sister's lawn today, her husband is away for 6 months of training. Unfortunately it was over 100 degrees. He drank over 7 pints of water in the two hours he worked on the yard and was soaked from head to toe. Fortunately in this heat the lawn won't grow to rapidly so it may be two weeks before he will need to mow again. 

We learned today that one of our army families, the husband, will be deployed this week; it came up very short notice. They have only been married 1 month. We will be checking in on her frequently to ensure she is doing well. 

One of our AIT troops went to the ER today with chest pains and shortness of breath. He is only 18 years old. We went up and gave him a blessing; he is home now confined to quarters for 24 hours. 

We visited two wonderful families this evening. It is great to see the gospel in action in families who try their best to live the gospel. One fellow had served his mission in the Mississippi Jackson Mission; he new many of the same people we knew. It is a small world.
