Happy Daylight Savings!
.....Oh wait....Y'all probably don't know what that is. haha Just
kidding. But seriously, it's a little weird losing an hour of sleep....
Okay first thing.....last week I was
poisoned by gluten again for the second time out here. Coming home early
to throw up is NO fun. Luckily I know when it's coming far enough in advanced
so I'm prepared to hit the toilet. TMI? Sorry....haha
One of our wards had an elders
quorum lip sink battle and they invited Sister Eas and I to do a
performance! haha We did "What is This Feeling" or
"Loathing" from Wicked. We related it to being missionaries and
sometimes hating your companion....Thankfully Sister Eas and I get along well.
:) I had a fun time doing that.
Yesterday, we spoke AND did a
musical number in sacrament. I played the piano while Sister Eas sang a
medley of "Savior Redeemer"--a missionary medley combined with
"Called to Serve." I challenged the ward to pray for missionary
opportunities. It is so important--it is ESSENTIAL--for each of us to
participate in missionary work and to have faith that the Lord will provide
opportunities if we ask. I challenge everyone reading this to do the
same!! Pray with faith for and expect these experiences. Act on opportunities
when they come.
Funny story of the month:
The other night at midnight, Sister
Eas used the toilet, then came into the room to tell me that the toilet
overflowed--water was everywhere!! I go to the bathroom to help her clean
it up. First off, she didn't know how to stop the water--she had
jimmy-rigged the chain with the toilet scrubber to try to stop the water.
A minute later, I hear dripping downstairs. Oh no. That is not a
good sound. I went downstairs to check it out and discover the water had
leaked through and was already all over the floor, ceiling, and even in the
light cover/bowel! The towels I used to clean it up were SOAKED and
the water was STILL dripping from the ceiling. There was no way we
couldn't wake up the Andres's at this point. (Again, this is at
midnight.) They gladly, cheerfully helped us clean up the mess. But
really though, it was a MESS! The sister missionaries flooded the house
at midnight.....What a great time. haha Sister Eas was literally
traumatized. It took her a couple days to finally use that toilet
again. All in all, it made for a good laugh and funny memory. :) haha

Yesterday the church started their
Easter initiative, #HALLELUJAH. If you have not seen it yet, GO WATCH IT and
SHARE it with someone specific!!! Along with praying for those missionary
opportunities, use this video to share when those opportunities come.
It's beautiful and brings the Spirit.
Ponderize: Alma 38:9
...There is no other way or means whereby man can be saved, only in and through Christ.
Behold, he is the life and the light of the world. Behold, he is the word of truth and
righteousness.
Like I mentioned last week, I want
to focus this whole month especially on the Atonement as it is Easter.
Jesus Christ is the greatest person ever, who lived the most perfect life, and
performed the most important even in the world and the history of
mankind. I love Him.
From Idaho to you,
