Trash bags and speediness are lifesavers!

I literally was laughing out loud when I heard about you guys watching a scary disney movie from the 80's, and it was actually scary. I always loved October, please enjoy it! One of my best memories was last October when we played hide and seek in the dark with moms spooky sounds cd playing in the background, and Paul and Luke were crying in the pantry waiting to get found.  Oh man, I am laughing remembering that.  Good Times!
This week we were trying to meet with this woman named Margarita. She never answers her door. I swear it almost seemed like she was trying to ignore us! :) But we finally got a hold of her. She said that she didn't have any time to talk to us ( What? Could this explain all the ignoring us?)  because she had to move trash out of her house. We said that we would do it for her. At first she was hesitant but she agreed to it. We cleared out a BUNCH of trash from her garage! All those years taking the trash out has really paid off for me now.  After we sat down and talked to her. We had a good conversation. We're always looking for small chances to serve! I noticed it softened her heart and she was more open and warm to the message.
Ok so guess what?  There is a lot of drunk people here! Usually they are pretty funny to talk to but sometimes it turns into a bad situation ( don't ask). This dude was begging us to come into his house and try some of his "special drink" that he made. He insisted, and we basically had to run away from him.  Good thing I'm speedy as we all know.  Later that night a dude kissed my hand when I went to shake his (ew). A lot of interesting experiences with different people here!
I'm learning just to enjoy every single moment. Every day is another gift to serve. I love you guys so much, and always keep you in my prayers! have a fantastic week! Tell Paul I havent been eating a ton of chilli in Chile but Im on the lookout for some!
