Snow!

We knew it wouldn't be long before our team experienced its first Utah snow, but we had no idea it would hit as soon as September!!!

We were in awe just seeing snow in the mountains...
We sure didn't expect it to  hit us in the foothills!

 (only kidding-Utah loves Texas, too! )

We lovingly refer to these as "our mountains",
the mountains of Herriman where copper is mined.

Doesn't even look real, does it?!

It has been SUCH a fun week for our team here in Herriman. God has blessed us with our first snow and even MORE opportunities to tell His good news! The Helton family was excited to be invited to a block party- where they were the only Christian family present. Their hosts and the other families in attendance were super friendly- Ben, Kristen, and the kiddos were all able to begin new friendships. We trust that in time, God will use these friendships to demonstrate His love to our neighbors. We continue to meet new people everywhere who are open to the gospel. Just yesterday, Kristen and I were at Wal Mart shopping for supplies for Kid's Life and the teenage girl who checked us out agreed to join us for Sunday's service!

Continue to pray that God opens doors for us to share his love and goodness. We could not be more thrilled that He has chosen us to be a part of the great harvest here in Herriman, Utah. Our big launch has been re-set for Sunday, October 6th. Pray that our team is diligent and efficient as we finish gathering equipment, updating our webpage, and working out any kinks in our Sunday service...and at the same time that our eyes are AWLAYS open to any opportunities for new relationships and sharing the Good News!
