Our Preparation Day


As part of our Preparation Day, Sis. Ririe and I  were assigned to clean the Women's statues in front of the Visitor Center. As we approached this statue we saw a Robin fly away from it.

As we started to clean the statue we saw cradled in her arms was a nest!!!

. . . with two eggs in it.  What a surprise!!  Of course, to the mother bird , where would a more safe place be for a nest than nestled in the protective arms of this beautiful woman?

What a neat experience it was to clean these statues
We could almost feel the presence of people that they represent
We hope every one of our children can experience this garden

Most "P" days, we have a different assignment to do a service project like this.
WE LOVE NAUVOO.
