The Errand of Angels


This is the start of the list of all the amazing things people have done to help. Thank You.

"But God knew the challenges they would face, and he certainly knew how lonely and troubled they would sometimes feel. So He watched over His mortal family constantly, heard their prayers always, and sent prophets to teach, counsel, and guide them. But in times of special need, He sent angels, divine messengers, to bless His children, reassure them that heaven was always very close and that His help was always very near," Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in The Ministry of Angels, General Conference Oct. 2008. Ensign page 29.


Melissa Jones carried Quinn through a snow storm.

Ammie Gillespie walked me through all the scenarios before we knew what was going on.

Heather Nelson called first thing Monday morning because she had a vibe that something was wrong.

Lindsay Purdie also called first thing Monday morning with the same vibe and then watched Quinn while we went to the doctor. She came over on Friday with cookies and treats and lifted Quinn and my spirits all day.

Tim does just about everything. He's the perfect husband. Enough said.

Sherry Loudon brought over dinner and stayed to keep me company on my couch.

Kati Koffard let Gracie eat snow while she took time to talk with me after preschool on Friday.

Melissa Jones called to check in and offer help.

Natalie and Audrey brought over dinner and offered to watch Quinn.

Peggy Dowse called and offered all kinds of love and help.

Avery Fellow came over after work and brought Jamba Juice, and then she pushed Quinn around the house in her new tricycle for an hour.

Jan Fellow called to check up.

Shelly put my name in the temple.

Kristie, my sister, called bawling because she misses me and Quinn so much and wants to come to Utah to help.

Sherry Loudon offered us a home for Thanksgiving.

Kris Olson tipped off the powers that be that something was wrong with Jill Fellow.

Two blog strangers/friends sent personal notes of encouragement.

Melissa Jones, Kris Olson and Jessica Moffat told me to get home and get my feet up, which motivated me to find the root of the problem and get more specific instructions.
