We had a fun time in Colorado with everyone. We did some hiking in the beautiful area around Leadville. Would post a picture but as of right now things aren't working as well as we would like. Our camera is being sent out for repairs and ......................
We have been called on several times by one of my cousins to help out with cattle work.....moving them to different pastures, vaccinating calves, etc. It's always an interesting job getting the cattle through the chute. Tomorrow (Monday) we will go out again with a different rancher to round up a herd and vaccinate and spray cow and calf pairs. We enjoy being of help to all of these ranchers as there is always a shortage of help out here.
We haven't worked with the kids since we returned from our trip. Things go rather slow because our phone problem is still unresolved. However, we do have plans in the works so hopefully these will all work out. School on the reservation starts in a couple of weeks. But there is also a fair and rodeo in Rosebud this coming weekend and so that will involve a lot of the kids.
A couple of prayer requests:
We would ask for prayers for the Lakeview Church as they continue to search for a new pastor. Pastor Leiter will be leaving at the end of this month for retirement. He will, in fact, be moving to the Hudsonville area.
Also pray for Kathy Tinant (a member of LCRC) who was just diagnosed with colon cancer. They have caught it early but it is of the type that does not respond well to treatment.
I believe that's all for now. Thank you again for your interest, support, and prayers. They are all important to us.

Gary and Barb,
Sounds like you're keeping busy. God will be faithful and help you through your trials. With the kids in school soon, maybe it will be possible to make some contact with them there too. Eat lunch with them or whatever. I hope your phone issues work out soon. That's frustrating. Praying for you!
Myrna and family
