Dear Family,
Okay crazy story...it could not wait until next week. So reasons why I love Parkland. So yesterday ...well I’ll start 2 months ago. We got a referral from Spanish to see Armondo Gonzalez. So me and Smith go to see him. First time he is sick. So we come back it’s his birthday. His mom is Laverna. She is not all there and is a little crazy I would say. She has some hurt feelings about the church. She had a hard life. She is like 56 yr old and turns out that both are members but this time she gets into telling us her story and is yelling at us and tells us to not come back. Armondo tells us sorry about his mom he is 30 yrs old. He tells us he wants to come back and learn more about baptism...but he will call us. So we never went back. Well 2 weeks ago with me and Davis she calls us and apologizes and say sorry and that Armondo wants to change and come back to church and wants to meet with us. So we set up an appointment with her. One half hour before the appontment on Friday she calls us and cancels it. So now it’s been one week. So yesterday she calls us.
We don’t answer because we are about to go into a meeting. So we did not answer and we were like... she’s crazy. So she left a message. Our meeting was done one hour later. So we listened to the message right away as we got out from our meeting. It starts off with her saying thank you to us for being supportive of her children and also her unborn...I’m PREGNANT! She’s 56 yrs old. We cannot understand most of it. She is slurring her words and says, “I wanted to kill myself and the baby. It’s too hard. I’m alone. I am trying to stay up”...then she mumbles something and it hang up. So we are freaking out and don’t know what to do. We go to the Summet Elders and have them listen to it. And ask what should we do. Elder Lupton and Elder Goodwine tell us to call the police. We never called before so we are just thinking of what to do. Maybe stop by the fire station and let them listen to it and then we did not know what to say... so elder Lupton called for us. Then handed the phone to us to explain the story to them. They sent the chief of police. And then they are supposed to call us to let us know what is going on. They say it sounded like she over dosed. They never called us... so we feel very bad if she died cause we never answered. So we are going crazy. Cause if she is dead we will feel so bad and down.

Then the day before we met a RLDS...they have a lot of the same as us.
Sabba, the crazy lady that thinks she is pregnant and a member....we can not find her records. So we head to tell her that she is not a member. So we may be baptizing her. Daniel was her babies daddy’s nephew. He was charged with firearms and assault....but he moved back to Bermington. Then we found that out. So in a good way... I think that was good he moved back. He was on date for this month to be baptised. But we did not know about all the charges on him.
I don’t know what’s up with all these ladies in their 50’s....thinking they are pregnant!!!
Make sure our ward is a missionary ward...missionaries cannot do it alone. We are working hard out here. We love it here in Parkland. Oh I just remembered, what’s up with old men on bikes...lol..
On the good news...on Feb 1st we have a baptism for Lehi my Samoan girl. Oh ya can’t wear red or blue cause you will get shot. lol :( lucky thing I don’t have red or blue.
I love my mission so much.....and it’s going by too fast. I love you all and I want to go to Vegas with you mommy.
love your missionary
