The Wreck!

ATTENTION PEEPS: I'm getting transferred, going out on my own
as a Sister Training Leader! There has been a change in
transfers which means we get transferred on Tuesdays instead of
Mondays. We will also be taking a 6 week break from iPads which means
I will not have my iPad for a while. We feel it's what the
missionaries in our mission need to regain their focus and dedication
to serving The Lord.

This past week has LITERALLY been one heck of a ride ! This past week
I went on an exchange with sister Williams... It was so great but
that's beside the point. When I get to her area she says "Sister Z
how do you feel about riding bikes ?" I said " that's totally fine...
Who wouldn't want to ride bikes in 100 degree weather ?" Hahahahahha
so we get to their apartment and get the bikes. The bike I'm riding
belongs to a sister who is a good foot an a half taller than
me...which means the seat of the bike was at my arm pit when I was
standing next to it... So picture this. Me, trying to get on a freakin
horse with a skirt on... 100 degrees outside... With a big blue helmet
that has a sticker on it that says "let the Holy Spirit guide" . I
have no idea how to ride a bike in a skirt so, to everyone who
says "it's just like riding a bike".....obviously is under the impression
that one has previously conquered the whole bike riding "thing....in a skirt!"
It is indeed a challenge. Soooooo, we are riding along for what feels like
10 miles :) and Sister Williams says "I'm going on the road, Sis Z you
go on the sidewalk."
Whoa wait WHAT!? Aren't we supposed to stay together?!
I'm a big girl and on the sidewalk I go...Everything is fine and all of a
sudden BAM I'M ON THE GROUND... IN THE MIDDLE OF ON
COMING TRAFFIC. I literally felt like I was in a movie!!!!!
Everything was in slow motion... I just stopped and looked around *****
It was so funny and so intense! I took my minor brush with death
as the Lord impressing upon me that he had made me a "car-riding" missionary
for a reason! So we went back to the house and got the car.... I'm not trying
to stereotype but.....brown people in skirts should not ride bikes!


Brother S--- (our investigator) got baptized on Saturday! Seriously
the S--- family is so amazing! They have changed by life! Seeing him be
baptized by his son and exit the water, shining with the light of the Lord,
filled me with such joy!

FAMILIES CAN BE TOGETHER FOREVER !
