For those who dont know, (I think everyone may know now cause it was all over the news) OSU had homecoming this weekend, they have a parade saturday morning before the game, and unfortunately a woman lost control of the wheel and ended up driving straight into the parade. many were injured and some even Killed because of this accident. My heart and prayers truly go out to all who have been effected. I know we have had some contact with a few people who were injured, but those we personally know will be perfectly fine.
early this week Sis. Young and I tried to get the missionaries into the parade, we thought it would be a great place to have many people see the church and it would be a great fun finding activity like we have done in the past! When we went to see what we needed to do to get in, the lady told us we were a few days too late, and that we would have been the last float. When we were planning Friday night for what we were going to do on Saturday, we planned to go to the parade and just talk to a bunch of people and hand out Book of Mormons. Thankful when we woke up Saturday morning, we both felt like there were other things we needed to get done (like that dang weekly planning we put off this week haha!) so we stayed home for that. around 1pm is when we heard the news, we called all the missionaries in Stillwater (the ZL's were out of town for exchanges) and everyone had the same prompting that we had and luckily the 12 missionaries here in Stillwater all stayed indoors that day.
The spirit will prompt us in small ways, we never quite know how he will do it, but just the smallest things can make the biggest difference. I am so grateful that then Plan of salvation is real. That these people can recover from their heart-ache and that the Lord truly has a plan and will do everything in his plan. We may not understand it, or want to accept it, but it is his plan. He knows what is best, all we can do is trust.
The gospel will bless you everyday. It will bless your families. I am so grateful for all the time I have left to serve here in Oklahoma! Still ahve a long journey and I plan on making it exciting! Sis YOung and I have had many miracles, including finding a family who is so prepared! we are working towards their baptism in December!
I love you all so much and hope you see as many blessings in your week as I do!
p.s. Transfers happened I am staying here with sis.Young to kill her, then I will stay here in stilly until the end! so write me a letter!
Hermana Joven y yo a la "walk around" el noche antes "homecoming" es una fiesta GRANDE!
