The Power of One

August 3, 2007 at 1:36 PM

Her husband died, she runs a small ranch by herself and has lots of kids, grandkids and great grandkids.

A full life.

But that is not why I'm telling you this story. She also runs a huge feeding program for the poor of Salt Lake City under an overpass for shelter and has a good size thrift store filled with food and clothing. She told me sometimes they give food to the Salvation Army and sometimes the Salvation Army gives food to them.

As they served us breakfast at Morning Star Ranch at our camp meeting, not knowing what the situation was I asked her big good looking son if he ran the outfit. He said, "if you ask Mom she would say yes, but that isn't true, she does."
