Earlier in the spring, we were struggling to find summer workers, which resulted in getting behind on several tasks like weeding and detailing the flower beds. Then Elder Sill and his companion reached out to me several months ago from the Somerset ward asking if they could do service on the temple grounds for a couple of hours every week. It led to him bringing a crew of other elders and sisters, every week the past 4 months, and now it is tradition to have them come and help out every Wednesday in the afternoon. They show up, know the drill and get working and we always end up ahead of our tasks because of them. We have been grateful for the help and know they are being blessed for their service to the Temple. It is fun to hear how the missionary work is going in their areas and know they are making a huge impact in the community. We have made some great friends and I hope they come back after their missions and work on the summer crew!
