Rachel Crouse and I have something in common: we did NOT expect to start something big--but the Spirit witnessed that it was a calling and the Lord made doors open.  Rachel and her family have started a non-profit to help the residents on the Hopi Reservation. It has brought her closer to her family, to her roots, and to the Lord. Also, Rachel witnesses of the blessing a ward family can be in the lives of the member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Being on necessary bedrest for months was only possible with the love and support of those around her. Now she has a beautiful daughter to witness of the goodness of those who are seeking to share one another's burdens.
