Dear Brethren,
I just heard from Elder Spackman and this is the current situation in High River. A marvelous turn out of volunteers have been coming to High River. Much has been accomplished. They really don't need any volunteers right right now. IF you have groups more or less on their way they can always find work but the better plan would be to save the man power until they are needed further. The situation is quite fluid and currently they don't have job orders to fill. Elder Spackman is so appreciative of the support that you have all offered. The turn out has been tremendous and those in need have been so blessed by your efforts. Please make sure that before any group goes that they coordinate with the Ludlow's and or President Spackman. We are very grateful brethren for your assistance and for the faithful Christ like response of your members.

Dear Brethren,
Since the call for help a few days ago, there was an overwhelming response to the flood relief efforts. Over 1400 church members arrived on Sunday alone to help. This was combined with thousands of volunteers not of our faith. The church has effectively "run out" of work orders to complete in High River. We have now been asked to hold off any further groups as there may not be a lot to do. Our work parties on Sunday and Monday needed to look pretty hard for people to help. (especially the Monday group) There may be a further call for help if another area of High River is opened, but we will wait for further word. We REALLY appreciate the efforts of those who went to High River. We also appreciate those who were prepared to go up this week to help. Your willingness to serve is admirable. Thank you.
If any really want to go up, they are still welcome to go. But the call from the church is now over. They may have to wander the streets looking for people to help. Please get this word out to those who signed up to go to High River.
Thanks for being so faithful.
