There is so much beauty around us...
Especially in the people we meet daily...
They are a true gift to us.
Our Preparation day at Port Orange.
Beautiful little park in which to teach Karen.
We introduced her to the New Smyrna Sisters
Sisters Worwood and Peterson
(Sister Warwood was transferred to Stuart)
We spent a couple hours trying to find a sister.
Which included many roads like the above.
When we found her place there was a gate, brick wall and electric wire and dog.
Elder Campbell wrote a note with our phone number.
Then she showed up!
She was so glad to be found.
She wanted to come back.
IF...
We had been able to just drive directly to her home ( only12 miles)
We would have missed her...
The Lord allowed us to see some beautiful country...
and rough roads...
So she could get home before we left.
The Lord is in Control.
We have met some wonderful people this week...
Some who don't really want to be found...
BUT
Another sister who was 'kind of lazy' as she said.
She has been reading praying and had a couple babies while being less active...
She wants her new born and two year old blessed.
Since she had been gone so long she didn't think she was worthy to come back.Oh how sad.
She is a daughter of God.
She now knows that.
Elder Campbell went out with the Elders a couple of times this week as well.
That gave me time here to catch up on our records...
Yes someone has to do it.
District Meeting
High Priest Day...
I guess High Priests wear suits that don't match.
These guys are so funny.

We got our trees pruned this week
The shredder and I think this was the last truck. There was a lot of stuff hauld off.
The weather has cooled off and that has been wonderful
People say that is why they live in Florida.
In the fall this tree blooms with the most beautiful yellow flower.
There is another one with red flowers.
Together they really look like fall.
More signs that we see as we travel
Look closely...
Bear Crossing...
Garbage's are in wire cages.
The South is still alive!
We see these all over...
Always a reminder of our sweet loved ones...
No it isn't a tropical storm or hurricane...
But a lot of water and flooding.
As we are doing this blog it has been two days of rain and low pressure.
Some of the country we saw this week...
A baptism in the Deltona Ward
Sisters McClain and Barlow...
With Mike and the ward member who baptized him.
We took an 'investigator' to this baptism...
She was impressed.
We went out to dinner with her and took the sisters at her request.
Wonderful fellowship time.
She loves the sister missionaries.
The ability to appreciate beauty is of God.
Especially in one another.
Look for beauty in everyone you meet, and you'll find it.
Everyone carries divinity within them.
And everyone we meet has something to impart.

The adventures of a Senior couple finding 'sheep;
This is a back road or sand pit.
So glad we had our four wheel drive.
So glad we had our four wheel drive.
This was a challenge even for it.
There is a miracle in this trip.
