This week was only MUY FANTASTICO! Oh man. So Lawton is amazing with so much potential.
Fun
fact: We met the Call Bizaro family this week. They had a 12 passenger
white van WITH the slidey door and..*drumroooll** WASHINGTON LICENSE
PLATES. We had to knock. 'Twas a must. Turns out they were a family with
8 children. They were fairly nice. Claimed we weren't christians,
(*siigh* darn) but were kind. But anyways! Just had to share.
SO
MANY MILAGROS! (pretty sure that's miracles in spanish. he hem) So we
were at Sister Trevino's house, a less active, for a short visit and
we've been trying to get her grandchildren to take the lessons because
none of them are baptized. Well, we hadn't even brought them up yet and
she randomly asks can "Can Y'all come over tomorrow around 4? I'm going
to have some grandchildren over and you need to teach them." KA-CHOOGA.
We're in! We did and it was wonderful. We spoke about baptismal a great
deal during it, and they want to do it! The oldest, Juan, who is 11 is
amazing. Turns out he's read half of the Book of Mormon already! GAH!
We
also had this family come to church yesterday. She's (Jessica) a less
active and he's (Steven) not a member. We were setting up a time to come
and see them along with his nieces who he says are interested and
Steven pipes up "Why not just come over to my parent's house down the
road and have it there? I'm sure they would all like it!" (There's about
5 people that live in that house by the way) Sister Chandler looked at
each other for a second and blinked a few times. "Uh, of course"!
Goodness, love it when they're not even a member yet and they're already
a missionary.
Another neat miracle: I actually just got
logged out of my email for about 20 minutes and so I can't remember what
I was going to share. Sure it was going to be good though...darn.
Anyways.
I can't tell you how much of a difference is felt when Members love and
support us, especially when it comes to their own missionary work. It
is wonderful here in Lawton :)
Thank you all SO much for all
of your efforts in sharing this message. I'm sorry, I need to go big
time, but I love you! And so does your Heavenly Father!

suckers. Hm. Not quite sure how much I appreciate it but ah well...
(just kidding. She is an absolute hoot)
