We had a very good Sunday......had 2 new ladies come to the Morning and Evening Service and said they would be back....Both of these ladies are a result of our Food Bank outreach!!!!  Another couple that had been here in the past were back and said they were going to start coming again including Bible Study on Thursday nights!!  So even tho the attendance of children was down a little, the adult attendance was up giving us a total of 32 on Sunday morning. 

Looks like we are going to have to wait until Spring to start building as the funds are coming in very slowly.  But thats Ok because we know the Lord is in control and will wait on his perfect timing.  Doyle and Keith have been busy getting things around here done and it will be soon time to make sure our trailers are ready for the winter months.  

I've been enjoying time with Liberty, Shel and Nevada.  Shel talked her Dad into mowing "trails" with spaces for each child a "house" out in the back field.  Then yesterday Shel taught them how to "furnish" their house from extra wood and other things that weren't being used.  They now have doors, tables, couches, ect....in almost every "house" out in the field!!  Not sure who had more fun, Shel or the kids!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoying the summer,       Sis. Sheri

The past 3 weeks have been extremely busy....alot of Medical Screenings for the children and Lexi also had to be referred to an Orthodontist in Bismarck.  She is going to have a tooth fixed on July 1st at the Surgery Center in Bismarck cause she will have to be put to sleep for them to fix it. 

The weather here has been pleasant for the most part....a couple hot days and then several cool days with quite a bit of rain lately.  Alot of towns here in North Dakota are flooding and there has been a Mandatory evacuation in Minot...everyone has to be out by Wednesday evening cause they say the flood there is going to be the worse Minot has ever had.   Please pray for the families that are losing their homes...not only here in North Dakota but further south as well.

PowWow season has begun.  The past 2 Sundays we have had in the upper 20's to mid 30's.  Yesterday we had 27 in the morning and about 24 in the evening.  In the summer months our attendance fluctuates alot...especially on Sunday evenings.  The kids are outside playing and most of the time don't want to stop to come to church.  Think I will start a weekly Sunday night VBS class and see how that goes.   The younger kids are very easy to please but it takes more to please the Pre-teens. 

Our youngest Daughter, Rachelle, and the girls (Liberty and Nevada) arrived last Thursday evening.  They will be here until July 8th.  We haven't done alot yet dut did manage to visit the Thrift Store in Solen today....that was alot of fun....LOVE that store!!!!!!

Enjoying time with the Grandkids,     Sis. Sheri

Even tho it's already Wednesday I thought I would go ahead and post Sundays report.  The Deasons were out of town Sunday but we still had 36 here for Sunday morning and 27 on Sunday night.  Praise the Lord for ALL his blessings and allowing us to be a part of the lives of the people here in Cannon Ball.....we LOVE it!!!!

Keith and Jennifer were able to move into their trailer yesterday.....they were sooo excited.  It really looks nice after all the remodeling!!!!  Think there are a still a few minor things to do.  I told Doyle that my trailer is next.....Don't know how far that statement went but it really could use some work on the inside and a new deck out front. 

Bismarck/Mandan is bracing for a flood from the Missouri River.   ALOT of people have already evacuated their homes and they are predicting several hundred homes will flood along with alot of businesses on the south side of Bismarck.  The river flows through the reservation and Ft. Yates will get some flooding....but we are far enough from the river that the flood waters won't effect us.  

Thanking the Lord for His protection.........Sis. Sheri
