Calf Fries and Earthquakes (Sept 6)

So I don't know if you know what Calf fries are or not, but they taste like chicken nuggets... just when you remember what you are eating you kinda just want to throw up.. lol (Look it up on the internet if you don't know what they are)  All the men in the ward were like "TRY IT IT ISN'T EVEN THAT BAD" so I thought, How funny would it be to be able to tell people that? So I ate it.  The things I do so I can email home about it. 

Also I experienced my first earthquake,  I was sitting at the desk doing studies while Sister Allred was in the shower, and then everything started shaking and I thought she had fallen, then it kept shaking and It just made sense that she was dancing in the shower and then it kept shaking and I realized that it was an earthquake and I ran to the doorway and I started calling for her so she would know what was going on, and she didn't hear me, so after 4 times of yelling "Sister Allred!!" I just yelled "IT'S AN EARTHQUAKE!!" She ran out in her towel and we just stared at each other and said nothing. Then when things stopped shaking she told me that she thought that the washer was going, and then she said Then I realized that it couldn't be the washer and I was like "Is this Jumanji"? We laughed about it for a while, but I guess there was an aftershock, but we didn't feel it. I also ran for the closest door frame, because the only image in my brain was the scene from Cinderella story where her dad tells her to stay there, and then he dies..  Also the grandpa from Freaky Friday who yells "EARTHQUAKE" any time the table shakes. That will be me now because I now have PTSD. But I am a survivor, and it was the craziest thing I have ever experienced!

This week was slow, but I learned a lot. I learned a lot about who I am and who I want to become. I am working so hard to be the missionary that God wants me to be. I am studying my scriptures all the time now. I am spending time that usually I would look at as "my time" doing things that I wouldn't want to do and I am seeing the blessings for it. I am sorry that I don't have much to say this week. but I love you all and I am so grateful for your prayers that are always being sent my way. Thank you for the support you show me, and for all the examples that have helped me become closer to who god wants me to be.

God is real, and he loves each and every one of us so much. The scriptures are true, and they really do testify of Christ in every page. Jesus Christ is the only one who can truly know what we are going through, so turn to him. Keep loving, Keep trying Keep trusting, Keep believing, Heaven is cheering you on. I cannot wait for General Conference where we get to listen to our Prophet Thomas S. Monson testify of our Savior Jesus Christ. I hope you all start preparing now for that and start thinking of questions you can go with into conference. I promise they will be answered. I love you all so much!! I am praying for you all day every day. I never stop. 
Have a wonderful week
Stay Golden
Your Oklahomie,
Sister Webber
