Turn Around and Don't Drown


Turn Around and Don’t Drown!!


Lots of rain, it has slowed the work down a bit, but when you are cold and wet, just take off your shoes and keep walking cause nothing is worst than wet socks!

This week was good though! We have committed Amparo and Maria Mendez to pray about bapt. the 27th of june! So keep them in your prayers please! 

We have a baptism this saturday though! Our little 9yr. Genoveva! We are so pumped! I will send lots of pictures! (p.s. thursday we have to pick out her lice so pray for me!!) 

Tuesday we were eating lunch at a members, and all the sudden the house started shaking and the lights all burnt out and it was really loud thunder! So we did what any normal person would, kept eating, then 4 firetrucks and 1 ambulance later, we went outside to see what happened. The house 3 houses down got struck by lightningt!! It was nuts! Oklahoma is a trip! 

We were driving home from a branch activity in the middle of a Tornado, we were taking the Elders home because they dont have a car for a week. Its 9:20pm we get a call from Amparo! she said "hermanas! I got work off! Find me a ride to church tomorrow morning!" That was a dream come true! After so much praying and more praying Amparo came to church! We had 4 inv. at church on sunday!! That has been the biggest struggle for me is getting people to church, but it happened! I was so happy!

Les amo mucho!

1. the flippen Elders keep giving me Mtn. Dew cause we save them from tornados
2. The house that got struck by lightning!



Thank you so much for the package though! and the money! it was much needed! I can now have shiny legs and face and wash my hair and I have PONYTAILS!!!!!!!

But I bought my new backpack today, and some other needed things, it was very good. I still need to go grab some shoes cause mine are wrecked haha so it will be good! 

If you could send me rain boots (maybe short ankle high ones?) that are black that would be most helpful! and maybe a rain coat that is black or grey so I can wear it with everything? haha the one I have now is good, just the arms soak through after a bit, so the rain coat is actually not something I really need maybe it can be my early B-day present( or a pair of my pointe shoes!;-) )  They say June is the worst month for rain and we are on tornado watch again basically all week. wahoo.... haha but Its exciting sometimes! Right now its just a pain and getting in the way of missionary work. Its hard to find a motive to go knock doors when there is a tornado outside, but then again that’s when we have the most fun!

But no worries! All is well! June will be the GREATEST month ever! 

You all look like youre having lots of fun! The package is very much appreciated as is the $100! The garments are WONDERFUL!!! 

Im having the time of my life and you know I am! I miss you all dearly! Pres. asked me in my last interview what I was gonna do when I get home (he asked way too early gezz!) and I just am excited to hang out with the cool kids on the block again!

Thanks so very much for all you do for me! Love you lots lots!
