Scary story! Then I'll get going. my stomach calls!

HEY!!

First of all. hahah What a week!! SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED!! Who doesnt like being on a mission! when your doing the work, you lose yourself in it. you just think of others and what they need.all. the. time. indeed ridiculously cool! i still cant spell and the language down her aint helpin me much! haha ooo imma type how im starting to talk. ya know the slang im pickin up? haha Jess your ganna love this!!  WELL what has happened this week... SO MUCH!!!! Sis G is doin well with her new comp! every comp goes through rough patches but ya know its always for the better!! hahah she is makin singles ward boom! crazy! it is really cool to see how most of the solid people we were teaching were single people who didn't want to go to singles ward but now that me and sis g have seperated :( lol we have been dividing and concurring! she is real good at gettin them friends and such with people their age. and me and sis Krebs teach and bring them closer to Christ! HALLA!! hahah its a real good time we have! love campus sisters!! Ya know whats real funny? when we're at a members home right, and our gator falls asleep... hahahahah we tried to draw the attention away from Brandon and Kim!! ok confession. brandon fell asleep! He is doing real good! oooo ok i got a real good story for ya'll! so we were teaching Kim and brandon. right and this was like our 3x teachin him. and we had our ward mission leader with us. we had been feeling like brandon could set a goal date for baptism!! so the lesson went really really good! and then sis krebs asked him to be baptized and he said YES!!!! But. don't get excited yet dun dun duunn!! Our ward mission leader stopped us! saying "hold up hold up hold up! lets take baby steps here! how about just reading and praying." me and sis Krebs cringed. That aint how it is supposed to go! after the lesson he literally ran to the car and drove away...? hmm. peculiar? so we got in the car. Oh My Gosh! OMG! did he really just do that!! Oh My Gosh!! needless to say we were a little ticked. There is always risk bringing members to lessons. you never know what they're gonna say or bring up. and inside when something comes up you just die inside and pray real hard that the spirit is filtering it for the gator. like one time we were teaching kim with a member and someone brought up slavery or something. Nope. don't do that! haha awkward. but anyway! after we got home. we called bro davis and asked what he was thinking. and such. he told us he just wanted him to say yes to something.. (in my head i say. Are you joking??) and then we explained stuff and he apologized. so its all good now. but still. like Oh my gosh! you've got to be joking! haha never had that happen before! we asked him if he doesn't want brandon to get baptized. and bro davis was like No No I do!! I DO!! i was feeling weird about it. hahaha sis Krebs got my view on the whole situation. OH DEAR! so lesson we learned from that. EXPLAIN what your gonna be doing with the gator before the lesson and then don't invite bro davis to a lesson when your inviting a gator to baptism... ohmygosh. i still cant get over it! BLAH!!

So Melyssa has quit drinking! woooooooooo!! not gonna lie, i screamed and fell over when she told us! hahaha when people first started askin her why she wasn't drinkin she said she was doing a "your body is a temple cleanse". ahhaha BRILLIANT! right?? then she gained the confidence from the Lord to tell them its a religious thing. mormons. haha She is incredible!!! She wants to get baptized! she is praying on the date right now! this month is crazy for her family and she wants them to be there at the baptism :) She is sooo cute! sis G is workin on finding her a man!! divide andconquer!! yeaya!! But she is loving church! LOVING IT!!! she wants to go to the singles ward. its real hard when she has kids though so we're gonna make a compromise for her! just because of how much we flippen love her! redonkulous!! Sometimes i just don't want to let her go!! The Spirit changes a persons heart! and if you don't believe that. then you need to come on a mission and see it for yourself! incredible!! Melyssa is doing Miraculous! simply amammaazing! (singing that word right here)

We have started teaching THE TIRA BACONS sister Hannah!! she is 10! so adorable!!! she is really happy and excited! she was confused on why the people speaking didn't yell in sacrament meeting. she is used to listening to a scary preacher! eek! not cool!!  but we've started teaching adorable hannah!

Ok for the climax of the week! We have been seeing denis a lot. he got the job he has been praying for! yay! he is a mechanic!! this week was just incredible with him! he agreed to get baptized when he found out these things to be true :XD We may or may not have screamed in the car.... hahahaha!! HE is continously opening up to us! his life just doesn't seem real! especially when you look on the outside. he is an incredible man! incredible! and his lessons are always so much fun! the spirit is super strong and we always laugh. so we had a lesson at kathy clarks house! she is an amazing woman by the way. absolutely amazing!! any who. we got the long version of the restoration and so at kathy clarks house we talked about prophets. and then watched the movie! HOLY FLIP! i have not seen that movie in a real long time! I had lost it. i was cryin like there was no tomorrow. i was also biting my lip trying to control the tear! ridiculous! absolutely ridiculous! me and sis clark were snuggling during the movie! it was a giant rainstorm and the thunder kept scaring us and so we'd jump towards each other every time hahaha. but i love the restoration movie!! real embarrassing cuz i was cryin but it was sooo powerful!!!! Denis was real sweet! after the movie he was like are ya'll ok? i didn't notice sis Krebs was cryin too! hahahahaha he was real concerned! but he loved it! he loves joseph smith! he doesn't open up very much when there are people around. so the next day we asked him about it. and he was saying how inspiring it was! and how Joseph was a cool guy! UH! the spirit was soooo strong during that movie! he now understands why we're here as missionaries and he understands more. don't get me wrong. we still have some bumps in the road to get through with him. ok maybe a few hills to get over hahaha but he told us how he can see a difference in himself and in his life as he has been reading and taking the lessons from us! He is doing soooo gooood! me and sis Krebs decided that one of the ways that denis is gonna really feel Gods love is by us loving him too! He needs to strengthen his faith in Christ! a lot. haha by small and simple things, great things will come to pass. (still cant quote scriptures) We just have to love him! so were gonna love him even more!! he has had a rough past! real rough past and so being truly loved! woah. crazy things happen!!!

now melyssa came to church! and so did kim, tira, logan, Kasmira, Kathy (Less actives were working with) and Denis!! Whats even crazier is that he was wearing a white shirt and slacks... I remember that he told me and sis G that he would never wear one... WHAT! He is changing! changing for the better!! i was just happy that he was wearing a shirt with sleeves! i wouldnt have cared what shirt it was as long as it had sleeves on it! ( he never wears a shirt that doesnt have the sleeves ripped off of them.) But he looked so good! he is making steps! big big steps!!! For some reason the elders cant keep him in priesthood hahah he always escapes hahaha he want to the singles ward sacrament meeting with sis G. aparently she asked him to go. we're gonna have to tell sis G to quit making our gator commit to going to your ward! haha jk he can do what he wants! but i guess he stayed a bit in their sacrament, then went back to priesthood. Denis!! hahaha we are atill working with him!! i did give him a funny look during our sacrament meeting when the young men and women went up to sing. and the young men sang their part denis chuckled. hahah i smiled too but still! we need to be reverent! hahahhaa so funny! sis krebs and i were secretly laughing together! OH my good times good times

 

Scary story!  and then I'll get going. my stomach calls! lol we were walking back to our car. for we were contacting and tracting in a hood. because our appt fell through :P and we saw these 4 guys standing in the road. so we thought! sweet! lets talk to them! now it was getting dark and we were almost to our car too. so we talked to them for a bit, and we got their information. then we felt like we needed to go. and at this point there wasn't much light out. so we said ok we're gonna head out! and this white bald drunk guy came out of this house! the 4 guys knew him. but he started askin us questions and talkin to us. then he was pullin out his fav scriptures from his bible. sis krebs leaned on me the whole time. It was crazy! i said well we have to go. then he stepped in front of our path and said hold on let me finish. i cut him off...  but during this whole conversation. i felt like i needed to stand tall and get us out. be strong and of good courage for the Lord thy God is with thee. He finally let us go. He was kinda rude! actually now that i think about it. he wasnt real nice. but we left and sped walked to our car! when we got into the car it hit us how bad that could have been!!! Sis Krebs didn't say much at all! it was the first time that i felt like i had to protect her!! the song how firm a foundation started coming into my head. so we sang it the whole way home. for i am thy God and will still give thee aid. ill stregthn thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand. So lesson learned? Run to the car and dont let creepy bald guys who are drunk of high start talkin to you. :) Oh how merciful and loving our God is!!! WOAH!!  so that was fun hahahah

Well ill head out. sorry my emails are like getting longer and longer!! so much to tell.. not fast enough hands to type it ! BOO! hhahhah Well Just remember that Joseph Smith is the prophet that restored the church! HE saw God the Father and his Son Jesus Christ! Pray to know!!

LOVE YALL!!
