For a week that started out in the sewer, it sure did end well! As I sat at our Spanish Ministry,(I call it "MexiLIFE" because I can't say Tabernaculo de Vida) I started thinking about my week and what a variety of things I have done. I had the plumbing episode we all know about. Then there was Wednesday where I had an awesome time learning more of the "30", which I am truly learning so much and enjoy immensely. Then Thursday was VBS where I got to help out a couple of kids that didn't have bikes, get them and watch as one of my closest friends jumped, shouted, spun around, and acted like such the great Children's Ministry Director that he is. Then Thursday night, there was the Faith Mission service, which Kim and I always enjoy serving at. I always get so touched to see people who are down on their luck get a little boost from our church. Friday night, was just a great time with friends. Then Saturday, WOW! Saturday evening was so enjoyable. This was our first time to be able to go to MexiLIFE and I enjoyed it so much!! I didn't understand a lot of it, but I did notice something when we sang a certain chorus. All of the songs were in Spanish, which I no not, and this certain one confused me so much in the verses, but when it got to the chorus, it simply said, "Hallelujah" all through it. When we got to it, it seemed that all the confusion was gone and everyone united at one time to give God the Highest praise. Ain't it just like God to do that, use one word that crosses every language barrier to unite us in one voice of praise to Him? I was just so moved at this song. It was a wonderful service and God touched so many there. I know great things are happening and are still to come of this ministry.Well, after that, we went to Braum's with my "3 wives" (Kim, Kassie, and Priscilla)to have ice cream. No, they are not all really my wives(just for any polygamy police out there reading), except Kim, but they all seem to unite against me at times and we do things together a lot, so I call them that. Anyway, here we are at Sunday again and I am so happy for the week I've experienced. I've learned a lot, and am ready for another.... just without any home issues!
-approved by Farley Wells, CMDI who.... OF COURSE is fluent in Spanish.... as well as 150 OTHER languages.

Glad your week turned out well! God is good.
I'm so glad your week ended better than it began!
I noticed the same thing last night. When the presence of God begins to touch a service, there are no language barriers.
Missed you this morning. Hope to see you tonight!
I, too, am glad your week turned out well. You're still young, and you'll see many more wonderful experiences in life, including your house, wives, etc. (just kidding with the wives)! I hope the beginning of your next week turns out better than your previous one did.
