Thanksgiving Weekend

We spent Thanksgiving Day in southwest Iowa with my family and then went with the Wheelers and Mike & Emily Mogard to the Rosebud Indian Reservation Friday-Sunday. Rosebud is located in the poorest county in the nation. It is filled with poverty, alcoholism, suicide and hopelessness. I could go on and on. The Wheelers have been going there a lot and after much labor, Roger led the first Bible Study (or "Stories along the Trail of Hope" as we referred to it with the Indians) on Sunday. 50 men, women & children came. Please pray that God would provide a few people to go there to live to help start a church. The room full of Indians we served Thanksgiving dinner to.
The kids love their Uncle Mitch
My beautiful Grandma, who we visited in the nursing home for the first time. We moved my Grandpa out of their house on Christmas day to live closer to Grandma. It is all very sad.
We don't have many mom & daughters shots
