Crazy Tornados Season is Here

First off, emailing tuesday cause it was a weird monday and so we get to email today! BUT This week was good! 

Miercoles: had trainers meeting in the morning, it was really cool cause there were four missionaries, (me failner, E.Steed, E. Corbin) and the AP's and Pres. so probably the smallest meeting the mission will ever have with pres! it was cool to learn a lot from him in such a small council!

then later that day I survived my first Tornado! things to know about tornados, 

1.you will wake up that morning and feel like you are swiming cause its so humid

2. the sky litterally turns green!

3. Hail the size of ping pongs/baseballs will hit and dent your car

4. the siren only goes off if the tornado hits your county. (and It went off!)

but we got some cool videos and had fun being storm chasers as we were terrified! luckily we had E. Steed and E.Moe with and they were driving in the crazy weather. I can drive in bad weather, but I wanted to make some videos haha! and we were all pretty scared of our first tornado! BUT!

the weather should be pretty crazy this season, tornados dont usually start until may so the season is ALREADY starting fast and bad! 

but the week was good! Women's conference was great! Hna. Oscarson was my favorite of the night!

Oklahoma City-first week trainer


This past week!

well, we did mostly a lot of getting to know members and investigadores, Because we are both so new to the area, we dont have the relationships we need, so we made "magic" cookies... (no that was not a reference to drugs...)

but we spent most the week delivering cookies to people, and now our dinner calendar is full! so cookies really bring magic! 

But we are working with a TON of investigadores and trying to sort if they are really progressing or not, we had so many good things planned and then.... 

BOOM hit with snow storms. So we were literally locked in our house most of the week. So kinda a really slow week, But we did have a miracle! We found a woman Lidia Gonzales, whose 10yrd g-daughter helps us find all the Spanish in the apartment complex, but we finally met Lidia, and turns out she was actually baptized a few years ago, and had moved and never knew where the church was! So We get to re activate her and her 2 grand sons, and hopefully baptize her g-daughter in 3 weeks! it was so amazing! she started cry when we were leaving and said "I Get To Go Back to My Church!" ahh the spirit is amazing, and will always lead you to where you need to go! 

But church was cancelled Sunday cause of the clima. I think that's the first time in my life church has been cancelled. 

BUT YEAH! that was my week! love yall!
