THE HOME OF TWO CELESTIAL WOMEN--Ashley and Brook Taylor

As I mentioned in a previous post, NZ wanted a Pulmonologist to review my chest x-rays and CT scan. So last week was taken up with doing just that. It took awhile to set things up but we were blessed with an appointment on Friday with a really great Doc. He assured us that everything was benign and nothing to worry about but should have another look in 6 months, ( doctor speak to cover his 6 legally). He did write up a pretty good report for NZ so now it is totally up to The Lord as to weather we are approved or not--well it has always been up to him, huh?  Any way, your prayers would be greatly appreciated, we are so anxious to get on with it.

We continue to carve out a place for our labors here. It is so rewarding to work with the missionaries here. Last week we took the two Sisters who are workin in Polson, on the south shore of Flathead Lake. They are both great missionaries and work very hard in their callings. It was our blessing to get to know them and offer up our support to them. Just one set of missionaries from this zone to take out but transfers are on the 22nd so we may get to start all over again. 

We are scheduled to go with the missionaries Wed night on a teaching appointment and are stoked about that. Also we have been given the name of an inactive Vietnam vet with PTSD and agent Orange disability and are going to visit with him and his family this week. Hope we can be of service there. 

I was just asked by Ashley Taylor, the daughter of Richard and Deanne who are putting us up, here in Kalispell, what I liked best about the mission so far. She has seved a mission at Temple Square and is wheelchair bound but an exhaulted spirit for sure. A GOOD QUESTION! My answer was how personal and powerful my relationship with our Saviour has become. Those who have been out here know that feeling and how incredibly fulfilling it is.

As we get to know these missionaries, our ferverent prayer for them is that the level of spiritual committment, love, desire to be like the Saviour, obedience, and shedding of the Natural man they have achieved on their mission becomes their new base line--never to be desended below ever again. And if they do, to regain it as soon as possible. For the longer they stay from it the more risk they have of becoming lost in the misty paths after partaking of the most desirable fruit.
