Back to the Bay day 1!

Saying goodbye to my mom she was like, " Be safe!" I'm like mom, don't worry, I'm NOT driving at all the whole trip!!! My sister was like, "YEAH, buuuut you'll be walking!" True, true, VERY TRUE!!! Annnnnd that's enough for anything to happen!!! Ahaha!!!

This time when I got my boarding pass I made sure to stick it safely in my pocket! Then when I got up there to pay I couldn't find it!!! I'm like REALLY?? Buuuut then I found it... It was lost in my skirt!!!! AHAHAHA!!! Don't ask... My skirt has 6 pockets... Enough said!!! Lol!

I packed waaaaaay, waaaaaay less this time, annnnnd I just made it the weight limit!!!

Good thing I stuck those hot sticks in my back pack!!!! Then at security my bag got searched for a SUSCPICIOUS item again... This time it was the hot sticks!!! Lol

Annnnnd I have to say, the only thing more awkward than getting patted down, is being patted down when your extremely ticklish...

SOOOO AWKWARD!!!

Sooooo while I was on the airplane, I kinda got bored and went into settings and just started messing around, turning on all kinda of things, wellllll the next thing I know my phone is talking to me annnnnd it won't SHUT UP!!!

Annnnnnd like every button I touched was like talking! Saying the date, the time, camera, etc... Buuuuuut the really bad part was that my screen was LOCKED and no matter how much I hit the slide over thing to enter the pass code, it would NOT SLIDE!!!

Well we landed and all of the sudden I realized that if I couldn't open my phone, I wouldn't be able to call Hanna to let her know I'm here... Annnnnd the really bad part was that I dnt even have ANYONE out here's number memorized!!! Soooooo I'm freaking out...buuuuut then I got the idea that if I could find a phone to use I could call my sister and tell her to call Hanna...

Annnnnd low and behold it musta been God cuz there was a pay phone!!!! Did you know they cost a $1.00 now??? Anyways, I called my sis, told her what happened, she was just like, WOW!!! annnnnd she called Hanna and yeah, Hanna came for me and we were laughing hysterically in the car!!! I told her that I put it in my pocket on the plane and it wouldn't shut up and everyone was looking at me like I was cray cray!!! Ahahahaha!!!

Anywayz, when we got to church tonight in Berkley, we handed my phone over to Bro. Kifle... He figured out that I had out it on...

BLIND MODE!!!! BaHaHaHaHaHa!!!! We laughed so hard about that!!! Sooooo he figured out how to put in my pass code to unlock it and Hanna googled HOW to turn off BLIND MODE....annnnnnd he fixed it!!!! Annnnnd that's how I'm blogging for you all!!! Yaaaaayyy!!!

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
