Classic Mary MOMENT @Youth Alive

Sooooooo the last night of Youth Alive I was feelin sooooooo pretty and sophisticated in what I call my princess skirt!!! My hair was all perfect, well I mean AS PERFECT as it can be in 20 minutes after a day in Disney's CA Adventure!!! Sooooooo yeah, I felt really sophisticated and adultish...then BAM!!! Alter call is over and CLASSIC MARY MOMENTS begin!!! LOL!!!

I'm standing there, talkin to my friend Kendra, we're huggin sayin good bye and I go to walk away and the platform of my 4 inch shoe is just chillin there on the ground with the sole of my shoe still attached to my foot!!!

I'm like OMW KENDRA!!! MY SHOE!!!

She looks back and when she sees it we both just start laughing!!!

She is like, THIS IS A CLASSIC MARY MOMENT!!!

I had to walk around the rest of the evening HOLDIN my shoes!!! BAHAHAHA!!! All my "Sophistication" went right down the drain at this point!!! But what can you expect!?! What do you get when you put a Robinson's May Sweater(Clearance) with a Dillards (Clearance) skirt, and GOODWILL shoes???

A CLASSIC MARY MOMENT!!! :)

Forget sophistication!!! i wouldn't want my life ANY OTHER way!!! :)))

Youth Alive 2011!!!

Okaaaaaaay soooo it was an AWESOME TRIP!!! After our drive to Burbank from Phoenix, we managed to get lost in the parkin garage headin to our hotel room...us girls were wonderin around some Civic center with ALL our luggage like ummm where is the Sheraton??? Finally I decided to use my mouth and asked an employee how to get there...LOL after the walk BACK we only had about 35 minutes to get ready for church Thursday night!!!

BUT I think our results for 35 minutes were pretty good!!!

Denae says I can always get ready faster than everyone else...I guess its just TALENT...LOL! Actually, I think its cuz I don't worry about PERFECTION!!!

Sooooooooo THIS is what Burbank looks like...I had always wondered!!!

We're drivin on our way to the Burbank church and I was like OMW this is sooooooo cool...THERE IS A STREET CALLED VICTORY!!! Like WOW!!! I'm like wouldn't that be soooo cool if the church was located on Victory street??? Then Bro. Sam reads the directions and we turn onto Victory street and I'm like OMW I think its on VICTORY STREET!!! and it is and i'm like HOW COOL IS THAT??? Then I'm like, OMW if the church is ACTUALLY on Victory street they should like call it Victory Street CHURCH or something like that!!! And as we pull into the church we all start laughin when we read VICTORY TABERNACLE!!! LOL!!! WOW!!!

To think, a CHURCH on Victory Street, Called Victory Tabernacle, Obviousley Bro. White thought the same idea like THIRTY YEARS AGO!!! Bahaha!!! Two years before I was even born...WOW I guess great minds think ALIKE!!! Of course, I woulda known all this ALREADY if I had ACTUALLY read the Youth Alive Flier!!! HAHAHAHA!!!

CLICK on the link below to read and see the rest...there is LOTS more!!! :)))

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!
