Rancho Sierra Vista

Time on the rez is either fast or slow. We either get lots done or sometimes we seem to get nothing worthwhile done. Driving to Farmington to pick up an order at the bishop’s storehouse was a full day and we enjoyed all aspects of it. We tried a navajo road out that cut off a lot of stop and go driving and we got to help pull and pack the food for seven families that Bishop Deswood needed to help with.

We delivered job opportunities to seven chapter houses talked with people and found out we can help out in one of the senior centers out in Rough Rock. We just need to get our food handlers cards. Has to be navajo nation taught. We signed up for that and will take it the first week in December out past Ganado. In the meantime we will help with the meals on wheels and clean up, or whatever else they need. We have decided to do it once a week.

We drove an old gentleman (Navajo) to Rough Rock and bought gas for a young mother (Navajo) in Rock Point. We checked our mail in Chinle and bought dinner for a man (Navajo) before returning home.

Because we needed to check out where the class is to be held we drove towards Gallup and found where we needed to go and ended up in Gallup. Dad took back car parts he had purchased for the mexican nationalists that they ended up not needing. We picked up a few items and headed back to Chinle.

Being senior missionaries is not all teaching we have found out.
