Today was our Red Cross service day. Sister Gowans did her usual data entry. Elder Gowans had an interesting experience. While sitting in the office a phone call came saying that there was a lady down in the loading area who needed to be brought in. So he went down to the area to find her. He found one lady, but she was getting into a van to go home. Upon looking around, he found a lady who was sitting in an old truck in the passenger side. He asked her if she needed to go inside, when she spoke back to him she spoke in a garbled tone. After talking to her he came to understand that her husband had gone into the pharmacy for some medication, but had not come out. Apparently she had sat there for sometime. Using the wheel chair that the previous lady had left behind he helped her into the chair and wheeled her inside where it was much cooler. He had her look for her husband, but she did not see him.So he told her that he would leave her by the doors so that when her husband did  leave he would see her and be able to wheel her out. When he and sister Gowans left the hospital they saw her and her husband just getting back into the truck.

 A few of our Elders and Sisters at the Transfer Dinner. For Craig Gowans, Sister Johnson, the one of the left is on her way home to Greenriver, Wyo. She is a very sweet young lady, hint hint!
We had an enjoyable transfer dinner with several of the Elders and Sisters in the zone. We ate hot dogs and tossed salad, with some yummy deserts. Afterward, we went up to the Friendship Chapel for FHE. For part of the activity we introduced and played Matthew, Mark, Luke and John; we are sure that our children will remember that game. We had a lot of fun, there was a lot of laughter; we had a great time.
