Hurricane Harvey in Houston

We were able to hear from Carolyn briefly this morning via email.  She is doing well.  The power and wifi were spotty today so there was no message home.  Her apartment is on a 3rd floor and they live on higher ground on the North side of Houston, so she is not currently experiencing the flooding that we see on the internet, just lots of rain and lots of boredom being confined to her apartment since Saturday.  They have food and water for the week. We are thankful for Sister Cervantes, a member of Carolyn's ward who is taking extra special care of the missionaries and keeping us updated on their situation.  We are also thankful for Lynn Johnson and Barbara Layton for who are looking out for her there. 

Her mission president has been keeping us posted on the Texas Houston Mission Blog which can be found HERE.

Our hearts and prayers go out to the people in this part of the country and I told Carolyn that there will be a lot of opportunities for service once we get through this.  

Thank you so much for keeping Carolyn, her companion and us in your prayers.  
I am confident that Carolyn will have a lot to report on next week!

With Love, Troy & Mindy Bettridge


This was a picture we took in front of the Houston Temple before Carolyn's mission.


This was one of the sobering pictures on the internet today at the doors of the Temple.
