You know when it's the bottom of the ninth, the bases are loaded. Everyone has just finished singing, "take me out to the ball game," it's slightly raining, you're standing on 3rd base, eatin' a popsiscle. Then the next ball just goes over the fence, WAY out of the park further than you could have ever imagined. THAT'S EXACTLY HOW MY MISSION HAS FELT! SOOOO AMAZING! SO MUCH CHANGE. SO MUCH GOODNESS. SO MUCH JOY. SO MUCH LOVE. SO MUCH PURE ADMIRATION FOR OUR SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. PURE JOY IS ALL I CAN DESCRIBE IT! This whole mission thing. Who would have thought it would be this much fun, this much happiness, and this WONDERFUL! Seeing people change is life changing. (ok so if the computer goes out I'm so sorry. There is the biggest rainstorm out there and I'm terrified. I don't know if hna. Ruiz will let me cling on to her leg if I hear another thunder that scary! send Mrs. Orlob!)
Today I've got you the top 10 biggest plays in Houston.... Instant replay HIT IT.
1. Fasting with little Lorenzo who is just saving each and every last quarter to pay for his divorce. We fasted with him to see a miracle and GOD IS GOOD. GOD IS GOOD! He was suppose to pay 2,000 dollars to a lawyer but for now he doesn't have to! I'M JUST WANTING AN INSTANT REPLAY ON THAT ONE IN HEAVEN! thank you Heavenly Father! So good!
2. Antonio.... on Papito Tono! How I love him! I swear he is just waiting to get baptized so that I will have to come back for it. that little stinker! But huge progress! He said he is willing to pay tithing for one month! He has to move out of his apt because it's way too expensive with tithing he claims. Soooo we've been ya know tracking down all flyers from all the complexes. AND OH MY GOODNESS I don't know. Why haven't I been doing this my whole mission. You walk in the office after riding your bike in the sweating sweating 105 degrees and they are like, "sit down can I get you a lemonade or a water?" Make you feel like you are a thousand bucks! Great way to cool off and we've been finding so many new cool people to teach just by walking in. and now I know all the apt lingo. WHAOOOOO
3. Cristian got the Melchizedek Priesthood after stake conference on sunday! Wilver ahhh wilver he's like Hna. Wallace I need your prayers just like the one on the freeway. I've lost my wallet and I need your powerful prays. I'm like WILVER YOU CAN HAVE A POWERFUL PRAYER IF YOU JUST PRAY WITH FAITH. He's like really?? Bless his heart! So fun to see all my H1 best friends!!! Weird I've been in the stake for a year!
4. Hna. Ruiz came and was like WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOUR EYEBROWS? I was like idk haven't looked that close to a mirror in like a year. OH DEAR HEAVENS. I THINK I LEGIT HAD BUSHES UP THERE! SO BAD!!! Huge game changer tho after she weed wacked South america. whole new girl coming at you live houston!
5. Erick noooooo sooo Erlin... the member that got him a job just gave him a car. like so nice right?? He's like use the car to drive to work, help the hermanas teach, and drive to church. Sunday we see Erick who is this 18 year old living in Erlin's Apt just driving the mini van looking so drunk. So we run to Erlin's apt and he's like, "HNA. ERICK STOLE THE MINI VAN LAST NIGHT AND WE HAVEN'T SEEN HIM SINCE. I AM SO STRESSED OUT! BENJAMIN IS GOING TO KILL ME. HE JUST STOLE THE VAN." we go on a high speed chase... (on our feet) running down the street trying to catch Erick. Never in my life have i seen so many mini vans. they were poppin up like pot guts on a good summer day at the ranch. I found myself running after sweet little mothers taking there children to the park. WE JUST WANT TO FIND ERICK!!! HE STILL HASN'T BEEN FOUND! the police say the car is in Galveston.... Erick wiilll hear a word from me! no one steals the alecios car! they are my fav humans ever!
6. Welll.... news spreads fast that i like roadkill.... i have had at least 3 people just this week give me dead frogs! yessss! the aps slipped me a dead frog in the middle of a plan of salvation pamphlet. Elder smith in my district... biking elder collects them all for me! yayayay! i love texas roadkill! i have so many surprises for you guys. last night.... my zipper broke on my skirt. hna. ruiz was trying to pull it up and over down and lower. nope STUCK FLAT OUT ON ME... yep i had to cut it off of me. cant wait for that instant replay!
7. Yedwin.. new investigator. We brought him to a FHE with this old couple. BAD IDEA. he was terrified and she made us eat enough spaghetti to fill a bathtub. Yedwin was terrified though literally loooked like i asked him to do the downward down yoga pose infront of President Monson, Tim Mcgraw, and HR when i just asked him to simply read Alma 1:14-15. don't ask your investigators to do that. it's terrifying!
8. We had zone conference this week! hna. Mcmullin and i had a training on the Apostasy for 2 hours! LONGER THAN A SACRAMENT MEETING! terrified! didn't sleep or eat for weeks. (ok maybe like 2 days) but i didn't prepare the heavens out of that! and Pres. send me the sweetest text after the conference. "hna. always so impressed when i see you teach. thank you for lifting and inspiring. we love you!" I LOVE MY PRESIDENT! HE IS THE GREATEST MAN EVER!
9. never get yourself involved with a 15 year old birthday party. they think it's a fetching wedding! they buy a dress, crazy foods, limos, im like heavens the girls turning 15! but we found ourselves cutting pineapple into all sorts of crazy animals till we couldn't see straight! I couldn't feel my hands by the end of the day. And when she handed me the knife that could have cut through a brick i knew it was gunna be a fun day!
10. LAST BUT NOT LEAST! THERE IS A MUSICAL COMING LIVE AUGUST 17TH. FEATURING HOUSTON 9 WARD. SO STOKED. I HAVE CHOREOGRAPHY PLANNED FOR EVERYONE EVEN THE BISHOP DOWN TO THE PRIMARY.
