My First Missions Trip (Part 3)

So sorry folks! I've been busy and haven't been able to post quickly :)

Here is Day 3!!!

Also, another apology, I am sorry I'm not super detailed like Nicole & Bethany Wakefield are on their blog! LOL

This is one of my favorite pictures from the whole trip...
Overlooking the city of Puebla



 
Walking down the streets!

 
Here are a few of us girls on Friday night ready for the service!
Me, Sofia, Emily, Rachel, Brittany, Karoline, & Breana

 
I love these two girls :) Emily & Karoline
Awesome girls to hang out with!

 
Shy & bashful Leslie lol She really is quiet haha

 
Our first service there was so powerful!
During song service, we had a strong move of God!
People were just crying & praying!
So touching

 
During song service..
You can see that the metal door was pushed open (it was so hot inside)
and allowed for more room to sit
PACKED HOUSE!

 
We haven't even got to the preaching yet and people were in the altar!

 
Bro. Pedro preaching! A younger guy from our group (he has family in Puebla) preached this night and it was an awesome message. The church & visitors responded to the Word of God!

 
As you can see, people were praying & seeking God
The lady in the purple shirt is a Pastor's wife somewhere in Mexico I believe.
*Nicole & Beth: correct me if I am wrong*

 
Praying for the son of a Pastor in Mexico


 
The Wakefield family





 
Friendships were formed during this missions trip & some were made stronger <3
Love these girls.

 
At the end of the night, everyone was all smiles!
*thumbs up*

Bible Quizzer

Umm.... I had no idea what I was getting myself into lol! This is my first year of Bible Quizzing and man! I love it!!!!! :D I can't wait to go to the competitions!! :D We have to learn over 400 verses but as Bro. Vick & Brendan said "Don't look at the numbers." It's easier when you don't look at numbers and you just memorize and go over them everyday!!! I'm so excited!!! It has motivated me to get done with schoolwork lol. I hope we have a good (NOOO, a GREAT!) team so we can go to more competitions. :) Fun & traveling! Which teams do you know that are awesome Bible Quizzers?? Do you have any tips for a first time BQ??? :)

Coincidence? I think not.

There came a time in my life where I needed to get out from being under the spotlight...  To get away for awhile.  To be alone. To deal with things in my life. And now I'm here :) writing...  I  am currently attending North-West College to become a Pharmacy Technician.  (I also work here during the day) A fellow pharmacy student was talking to me before class... She poured her heart out to me. She was crying-tears rolling down her cheeks. She was hurting. She was contemplating taking drugs again. She was losing her faith in God. And there I was.. A child of God Filled with the Holy Ghost Having peace in my life  Knowing that God hears me We cried together. The people that surround us need to hear encouragement and love from God's people. They need the opportunity to walk into a church that preaches truth, that has life! They need to see God through you!  Don't be afraid to cry with them. God put you with them at that moment... God knew they needed you ...

A Special Touch From Heaven

For many many months, I wasn't feeling well. It was like I had something stuck inside of me that pushed everything about me (bubbly personality, a little ball of joy, Miss Sunshine, full of energy) into a little ball and filled the rest of the space with emptiness [cold]. It has definitely not been the best part of my life, for sure. It's one of those trials where you just want to go back to the year before lol. I'm telling you, I was the total opposite of who I really am. Oh my, talk about craziness. I started to get really sad, kept to myself a lot, and ZERO energy.. Ahhhh it was all bad!! If you think that I am wallowing around in this pile of mud (not wanting to get out), think again! I've been pushing myself harder to get back to my old self. I've been getting into the Word, praying, keeping in contact with friends/etc. For 3 weeks (up until a week ago), I slept almost ALL day. Not kidding. I told you, NO ENERGY. I didn't want to do anything. No piano, no...
