Credo in Action

About 3 years ago, Paula and I were asked to organize a program for the youth of our Stake between 18 and 23. Our Stake President, Steve Dalton, named the program Credo, latin for "To Believe". It has really been a great experience with many great young people to interact with. Recently the group was convinced by our friend Jean Mecham to come to Rainbow and do a project clean up. What a blast.

Jessica Sellers, our deaf friend from Farmington Ward days is all grown up. A member of Credo, she was the photographer for the day. This was the only shot of her! Not bad either!


A virtual army was here, and cleaned from top to bottom. The house actually seemed to love the attention.


With all the windows, it was plenty to keep everyone busy for more than a couple hours!


Is Mandy worried that her reputation as an excellant broom sweeper will result in more calls?


Chris certainly seems impressed with her skills!


Meanwhille Dave is clearly not worried that the canoe is going to drop on his head as he appears to be falling asleep cleaning the stairway!



About 14 feet up, Gary Haroldsen was demonstrating his prowess at window washing.


Sis McDermott tells us that this is a rare shot! Hmm. I wonder what that means!


Rays were excited to be using the car wash rags for a little larger job!


Three women who definitely know that housework with an army is the only way to go!


The new (to us) table got a great workout. The food was excellant!


Thanks to all for the help. It was a great crew and a fun time together.

I can't get over how absolutely GORGEOUS that house is!! I'm glad the Credo group was able to help you out. All the finishing touches look great. I'll look forward to coming over to see it after the furniture is in!

Good work!

So nice that everyone came to help. I was wondering how that place got so clean!
