What a beautiful day - finally!!!! The sun has shone all day - not a cloud in the sky....but the wind has also been blowing ------- so 60 degrees doesn't feel as nice as it sounds because of the wind. But we will take it and say THANK YOU!!! Gary - with the help of Terry and Jack got a start on his work shop today. More on that at a later time........ But then this afternoon we had Release Time with the 6th, 7th and 8th graders. We had been working on a Thanksgiving Wreath with each class The K-5 all did a little bit of cutting the leaves out (I did most of it just because it's always a "time" thing) and then we let the K-2 glue the leaves on the paper plates. They ALL did an awesome job......then the 3-5th grade group put the words "thank you" or "giving thanks" on the plates. Now today we let the 6-8th graders put them up around the community center.
Now we are "taking a break" - until this evening when we go to the PMO - Youth Ranch. We are going to be working out of the Book of Hope tonight -- put out by the Native American Fellowship. We have used this book before and it goes good....the kids seem to enjoy it even though the stories are hard to read. They are true life stories of Native people whose lives were in a shambles --- but turned around when they found Christ.
Thank you once again for your prayers that are lifted up for these young people on the Reservation. Pray that they will grasp how important it is for them to commit to knowing Christ and living their lives as He wants them too.

Barb,
The wreaths look great! Hope you have a good week!
Hey Gary and Barb, I haven't written for a while, but I do read very often! Keep all the info. coming. We really enjoy keeping up with you and knowing what you're up to. Sounds like you continue to make a wonderful impact on the youth there. You really have a special gift with those young people. They are connecting with you and you are bringing so many to Christ. Keep on working for His glory. Prayers with you,
Myrna
