The Break In
This weeks been SUPER exciting.
First off, The ramons passed their baptismal interviews!!! So, this Saturday is their baptism! YAY!!! They are so excited. The Dad Ramon we learned has had 5 heart attacks and a few other scary medical problems. Just goes to show God has a plan for each and everyone, and he is going to help you get where you need to be even if there are lots of challenges on the way.
Also, this week our landlord wanted to fix a few thing in the house, so we got sent to my last area to sleep. My brain was so confused going to and from my last area to my new one. But, the exciting thing. Are you ready? I don't think you are.....
It was a dark and stormy night. Two young missionaries were staying in a new house. One had been there before, and knew of the terrors that lived near by. So, of course, she warned her companion. These two missionaries were obedient, and went to bed at 10:30 like they should. All was calm and quite. They were a little cold, but all was well. BUT THEN! The one missionary heard her companion screaming her name. She woke up, and could hear what the problem was. Someone. Was. Trying. To. Open. The. Door. They could hear a key turning in the lock. And then.... The sound of someone DESPERATELY trying to come in. One of the missionaries suffers from panic attacks, and so the other had to be the big girl. Well, She called president while trying to calm down her sweet companion. He said to get something to defend ourselves with. I chose the frying pan. He then said he would call a member that lived near by and the Elders. Well, when the brother got there, the sound had stopped. And we were saved. The Elders had ran probably about a mile and a half with broom sticks, (Around 12 at night) and got called to go home about a block away. Then they were wonderful and sang hymns to calm us down over the phone and then said a beautiful prayer. Props to these Elders. So yeah, that was probably one of the most scariest moments of my life and I didn't even scream. haha. Its always an adventure here! Also, I know we were protected.
Also, this week There have been LOTS of events that have just made me feel so grateful for the life have been able to have. We are so blessed. I have been blessed to live in a house full of love and protection. I have the best parents anyone could ask for. The best sisters too. I'm so grateful for all I have. And not the worldly things, but the eternal things. the scriptures are of so much worth. Please read them if you aren't. They were meant to be read, not to help in your collection of dust bunnies. Think of some of the things you have been blessed with. Then gives thanks for all of them, and then more!!
I love you all and hope that we can all keep growing in the faith. Do something everyday to feed your soul. Ok? LOVES to the moon and back!!!
