NOTHING stops the work of the LORD

We are having an INSIDE DAY.  It snowed last night.  Can you believe it !!!  Hasn't done that in years, our apt. maintanence man said. He had sprinkled salt around the handicapped parking spots yesterday when the news gave out it's warnings. Then this morning he came to shovel a path for Elder Mauerman. He is very nice.   Black ice is under the snow.  It's only a couple of inches of snow but the ice is bad underneath and it is not supposed to get above freezing today. Elder Mauerman peaked out from our breeze way and did see some cars driving by on the road but I guess most people just stay in.  Fort Bragg is closed expect for the "important" jobs so we couldn't get on base even if we wanted to. It is District Meeting day. We drive 50 minutes to get there each Wednesday.  The President had delayed the meeting by 3 hours in last nights plan but then he called all the Zone leaders just now and cancelled. Then our Zone leaders called to tell us. Weird when we are used to going about in the snow in Utah but just as well so that nothing bad happens.  As I have heard in the news before, they don't have the snowplows and sand trucks here in the south so life comes to a halt if you get snow/ice. I guess we will be doing some online searching for members today. So some type of missionary work will still go on! We can do that because we have our computer...Later...Well we did have Zone Meeting in a conference call. The Elders and Sisters taught the lessons they had planned for the meeting over the phone. We sang a Hymn and had lessons and answered questions while on the Conference call. NOTHING  stops  the  Lord's  work  from  moving  forward  : )
