Men and Work

I've said it before but I'm going to say it again we live in the greatest ward ever! The day we moved in the Elder's Quorum President came over and was talking to Marc and he asked if there was anything that we needed. He looked over and saw Riley's wheelchair parked int he carport. He asked us how we get it in the house and we told him that we had a portable ramp that we can get out if we need to. He said to us "well, that won't do let me see what we can do about it" The next Sunday he came up to Marc and church and said that the Elder's Quorum was going to build Riley a ramp! There are a bunch of contractors in the ward and they are happy to pull the supplies together and get it done. We were speechless at the idea that they wanted to do this for him. They wanted to start it before the weather got bad so they started construction about a week before Halloween.  They did it mostly at night when everyone got off work.

After a few nights and a couple of Saturdays Riley was all set to wheel right up to the front door

Isn't it the most beautiful thing you've ever seen! They did a fantastic job! I am blown away by this act of service. Marc walked out and stood on it and cried. To the members of the Quail Ridge Ward, words can not express our gratitude for this wonderful gift. We are truly blessed to be amongst such great people. I know that our prayers were answered and that the Lord guided us to the home we were suppose to be in. Thank you a million times over!
