Bible Quizzer's Outing

Today the Bible quizzers from the two churches here got together and went to the lake. 

It's spring break so everyone is out of school for 2 weeks. :)

Here are a few pictures.

Elder Wakefield doing push-ups

Junior Wakefield doing sit-ups

I don't know what HE was doing...tanning? :p

Me and el Grampa

Volleyball with a soccer ball. 

...That didn't last long.... : D

Getting ready to get in the boats

 Nicole's boat...lancha...what's it called? A rowboat? It's not a canoe...

My floating metal thing

Yeah, it's gross, but it felt really good :P

Quack

 Tio Mario's group

Nicole pulled all of us back to "shore" at the end. 

I dream of tipping one of these boat. That'd be funny. 

Haha.....I'm not in the write-y mood, if you can't tell. :P 

But I have an announcement.

Next week Bro. May from Memphis, TN and Bro. King from Ft. Worth, TX are coming!

We're having a 3-day revival starting on Friday. 

If anyone wants to come, we'd love to see you! :D

Our Next Fundraising Campaign

Greetings Fellow Laborers in Christ!

We bring some of this:

Regarding the Wakefield families in Mexico. 

We have not been kidnapped! Neither have we been abused or harmed by anyone. We are very happy about that! We have not been robbed (recently). We have not been hung from any bridges. 

Based upon this information, we have designed a new plan for missionary support for those laboring in Mexico. 

Our supporters have not been asked to help with ransom demands or hospital expenses, or replacement of stolen goods. We take comfort in knowing that you would be there for us if something unfortunate were to happen to any of the missionaries in Mexico.

But what if one of us were kidnapped? What if a ransom were demanded?

How much would you give? How much could you give if our lives depended on it? 

Wouldn't it be sad for Jesus to come and those who knew the need of the mission fields to have spare money in their pockets? 

Take that amount that you COULD give and just cut it in half. 

Send it through the usual channels this week. All your information will be kept:

 Why spend money on ransoms when we could be building churches and reaching the lost?

Atentamente, 

The Wakefields in Mexico. And probably all other missionaries down here. :p

Scene One, Part One

Time: 11:00 pm

Setting: Bethany and Nicole sitting on Bethany's bed playing Boggle. 

Nicole: "I like to watch the sand in the hourglass."

Bethany: "I like it when you look at the sand too."

...Guess who won that game? 

A few minutes later we went into the kitchen to find something to eat.

Here in Mexico, milk is sold in non-refrigerated boxes. Yes I know that's really weird, but it does taste perfectly normal. Except when you pour yourself a glass not knowing it was just put in the fridge and isn't cold yet. 

That's what happened just now. Rice Krispies + Room Temp Milk=Nasty

I'm not really into putting ice into my cereal, but apparently Nicole is fine with it. 

Also, there is something hilariously funny about talking with Rice Krispies in your mouth. 

I don't know what it is, but every time Nicole opens her mouth, I lose it. 

I laugh my head off, like this. 

Summit

Hey, the WPF's conference, Summit, is going on right now. If anyone wants to hear some gooood preaching, go here: http://holyghostradio.com/

Bro. Raul Alvear is preaching and it is so awesome!

So Tasty...

Have you ever had a crepe that was so good, that it was tasty to walk??

Tasty to WALK, you guys!!

No? Must be a Mexico thing...

High Honor

Ya'll should get your lil ole selves over to my good friend Ashlyn DeAro's blog :)

A very compelling post, if I do say so myself!

Letter of Thanks

I'm home alone. That's when I come up with the best ideas....
Some people are just tooo sweet. Look at this letter!

Dear Bethany,

I just want to say that I love your girls' blog sooo much, it provides me with a LOT of entertainment and laughs. I love to laugh!! The pictures are so great, the writing is even GREATER. Give yourself a big hug for all your hard work. I know sometimes people do not appreciate your sense of humor. For example, that pinky toe post. I know you got a lot of flack on that one, but let me say: I laughed until I passed out on the floor!

Sometimes you don't blog for long periods of time, but I understand that you do have a life outside of this blog. You do a great job posting anyways. Also, I love the design of the blog. I bet you spend hours working on it. And well like I said...I really like it. Thanks for all the effort you've put in for the past year and a half. Oh, and yes, I can't wait until Pacific Coast Apostolic Camp 2011, either! We are going to have a great time together. I can't wait to see you!

Extremely Sincerely, 

Bethany <3

Heh heh. 

Alrighty so I'm glad we got that out of the way. Now onto more important things....!

 We had fabulous church tonight!

There were four people in the altars seeking for the Holy Ghost!! 

and....

ONE YOUNG LADY GOT IT!

This is the lady that got the Holy Ghost. :)

Yes, I am very very very happy. I told God tonight that I'm tired of "blah" services and that what we needed was to see a sinner saved. There's nothing like watching God fill someone with the Holy Ghost!
