Staying in Cuero

Y'all, I just got to say that I love the boonies. I love the long drives, the time spent with all the old folks, and the cows and pastures. There are many memories that I've made. 

I may have accidentally miscalculated our miles so hahaha uhhhhhh......we are barely gonna make the cut. Basically, we've been hitting the streets of small-town Cuero prettyyy hard lately. 

It was a fun week tho! Had an exchange with Elder Secrist where I walked away so incredibly enlightened, it was crazy! The rules and science behind the world and God and the Atonement. If y'all are curious, watch the talk "Meaning of the Atonement". It's sooooo good. Also, Elder Secrist is a tank. I love him.

Got to help out at the Cuero 150th anniversary. Did service for the people and got to help out setting up the Farmers Market. Had quite the country concert, and lots of gals had prom dresses on cause it was the same day as prom.

Had a CRAZY good lesson with our friend Lisa. And wow, she's honestly so cool. Had a slightly apostate 2-hour restoration lesson with her, and her comprehension level is top tier. She was asking questions like, "what if God called a prophet after the Bible was created and He had written down scripture?" Or "if the apostles died, then does no church have authority?" And "if God calls another prophet today, how can we know? What if God HAS called prophets today and we didn't know?" Basically, she's super elect, and she loved the restoration. We're praying that she gets an answer to her prayers so hopefully, she does! Cause she was telling us that she just wants MORE about God! And she was just thirsting for the Word. And we gave it to her, haha!

We got transfer news!! I'm staying, and I'm getting Elder Wood. And he is one the greatest missionaries I've met in the mission, and one of my best friends. So y'all know it's gonna be a banger transfer ahead of us:)

Fractured my foot?

  It's been solid. I might have fractured my foot last pday playing soccer. I swung so hard at the ball but hit Sister Vaughn's foot instead and smoked myself. It got all swollen and red and purple for a few days. But it was doing better! Enough for us to play spike ball as a district every morning for exercise lol. I've got no time. Photo dump

My dad got hit by a car?!?

Image
Phew!! What a week.  It was crazy. I got a text on Wednesday that my Dad got hit by a car while riding his bike to work. I was like GASP. He fractured a bunch of bones on the right side of his face and sinus, but he's okay thanks to the miracles of God. Like seriously, God was watching over him. Me and my comp immediately started pouring out our hearts in prayer for my dad. And he's okay! Thank you Heavenly Father that I can still see him during my life on Earth:) God is such a legend for that, haha! Spiritual thought: My mind took an eternal perspective this week because of what happened with my dad. It's crazy how fast something can happen, and it really made me realize how much I cherish my family. Family is EVERYTHING. It's literally what makes Heaven, home. Truly makes a person "think Celestial" when an accident happens. We are truly blessed having the knowledge of God's plan--don't take advantage of it!! Miracle lady: Found a really cool lady who

People passing out-->ZC training-->CAR hits comp-->God's will

  WOAH.  LIKE WOAH.  I MEAN WOOOOOOAAAAAH. This week has been crazy! So much has happened. First was coining on the military base. The sun was out and it was HOT! Someone passed out and fell straight on their face on cement and got reallyyyyy injured so they totally changed the coining ceremony. People were dropping like flies. We went to the graduates under one of the training facilities, and there was a HUGE FLAG.  CAR CRASH?!?!?! Yup, I went to Heritage, which is a biking area, and we were flying down a hill on the ride side and a HUMONGOUS RED.... Prius...SLAMMED INTO MY COMP.  Jkjk that was over exaggerated. But my companion is fine, just got sideswiped by it. We got all the information from them, and I pressured them into meeting with us at least once because they ran into my companion, lol. I'm all about finding those Nations, haha. The person driving was a kid who just had his permit and he didn't even signal. ELECT DUDE: Put a super cool man on date! First lesson was t
