The one where Sister Wankier dances in the rain🐫☔️☔️

 HEYYYY 


Happy weekly check up haha this week has gone by even faster than last week. I definetly think it's because transfers is in 8 days haha it's almost been 6 weeks in the field!! It's crazy!! It really doesn't feel like that at all haha maybe others feel it though for me πŸ€·πŸΌ‍♀️ let me know lol

Hmm okay this week!!! ☔️πŸ€ŸπŸΌπŸ€ πŸ˜±πŸ’Ÿ❤️‍🩹🩹

We saw some miracles this week!! I finally met Marty. She is the grandma to an active family. She isn't too interested in joining but is really interested in being a good example to her grandkids. They call her gege haha kinda lit. She is literally so amazing. She talked to us at church and offered to take us to breakfast to FIRST WATCH❤️‍πŸ”₯❤️‍πŸ”₯❤️‍πŸ”₯ I have been telling sister radford we are going to have to save up for it and go haha because it's literally my favorite thing ever and there are 2 in our area haha and she didn't know and offered to take us and hear an uplifting message!! So YAY!! Kinda personal miracle but still, kinda awesomeπŸ₯° looking forward to some breakfast this week :))

We had a HUGE rainstorm this week it was CRAZY!! BUT also a major miracle. 1 houston isn't in a drought anymore so all the boats are out and about again. And 2 me and sister radford got the closest we could get to swimming in this storm haha we were fully immersed in SO MUCH WATER!! IT WAS SO AWESOME. It actually came on a day where we were randomly in the dump and didn't know why. We were both just meh. We tried to get out of it but we were just kinda sad. A lot of things fell through and Satan was working double time on us. But than as we went to go knock a neighborhood, with an awesome name, cowboy creek haha, we saw a ton of rain clouds and a small storm but that's been happening for months in Houston so we thought it was going to pass. By the time we got to the neighborhood the roads were flooding!!!!!! It was SO CRAZY!! We tried to wait it out and than inevitably knew it was a real storm and we should dance in the rain haha. So we took some pictures and enjoyed the rain and danced and laughed!!! It was amazing!! Once we started dancing it was like all that funk went away. It was much needed. Literally worries washed away!!

The garza family took us out to eat again and it was SO GOOD!!!! THE BEST TEX MEX EVER!! and the desserts were all looking SOOO good and they told us if they can't decide they will simply just get all the desserts hahahah it was mind blowing. Simply my jaw dropped😱 this family of 14 is something else haha you just gotta love em. After desserts though we tried their tres leches and they said it isn't good enough and so we are going to have to get you the best one in houston. And sure enough there was a cake for us to pick up on saturday haha it was UNBELIEVABLE haha this family is awesome. Sister garza is still warming up to this ward :(( but we got her to sit with us in relief society instead of her car so that's good!!  

Haha okay I'm sorry I should probably  actually include some real missionary work🀭 okay this week was kinda a rough one. We had so many lessons have to be rescheduled because of family or health emergency :(( it was so sad that so many had some rough weeks this week. So lots of praying for these families went on. We did end up meeting some new people this week. We will have to see if they decide they need us haha but during the Strom a man's garbage cans were floating down the road so we helped him grab them and take them up. And he was super appreciative and said he would be happy to hear more. We went to visit and he said his wife was catholic and now they both practice Hinduism which was really cool to talk about and learn about. But that he wouldn't be interested haha so bummer but than we were walking away and his neighbor was out and was really interested in some prayers!! He seemed like he needed some silent prayers. So we will see if he ever shoots us a call. But that sadly was the most exciting part of the work haha 

OH WAIT we did have a lesson with letty and Thomas (they are the favorite children NO CAP) we discussed small parts of the apostasy nd prophets and their roles as volunteers called of god. We explained that is what our bishop does too. Letty was liking that, seemed like this week made a lot of sense to her. She also talked to us about school starting Today so we are SO excited to see how it all goes :)) Thomas was awesome this week he had some awesome comments about Jesus christ and his love and his help in struggling times. There was also a Thomas who was called a bishop and we discussed him and he LOVED talking about how Thomas was faithful in his calling just like we are. THOMAS IS THE BEST!! Literally the light of my life. 

OHH dang wait okay one more really awesome lesson. So we have the wonderful Hart girlπŸ’Ÿ quick background. Their mom was a convert about 3 years ago and has decided that she wants her daughters kyrie (11) koko (9) to have their own testimony of this church and than be baptized. They have asked their dad though, but because of the divorce he has time to talk the girls out of it and he never says no but makes them think the church is all scary and bad and so we are starting to go through the lessons again to help sister hard and her kids in learning this gospel. 

Okah miracle lesson time for kyrie and koko, we were headed to visit sister hart because she was alone and the girls were with their dad. So we were just gonna stop by and see her and than all of a sudden KOKO ANSWERS THE DOOR!!! So we decided to talk and see them and than kyrie told us she had some questions and so we answered them. And it was a lot haha bless sister Hart's hearts!! She is adorable haha and way too patient haha I need some of her patience. She listened calmly and quietly as koko just went crazy with deep doctorine questions haha so we infact have our work cut out for us with koko πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ 

Okay sorry long email pt. 16395 I don't even know at this point haha but I am happy and healthy and having a blast here in Towne lake still!! I do ask for an unspoken prayer request for the towne lake ward❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 thank you guys πŸ₯°πŸ₯°
