Acts 2:38 wins again...

You probably think this is going to be a real spiritual blog, don't you? Well, NO. This story involves a police officer, my dad, our car, an Acts 2:38 track, and a lady named Sister Jaydie. Now think about this combination for a minute. Make your own assumtions as to what I am fixin' to talk about..............


Ok. So, here it goes...

Today we got out of school early. So, we were going to go do our meat shopping. Yes, we meat shop! LOL So, we are on our way. Just going along. And all of a sudden this police officer starts blowing his whistle and telling us to pull over. So, of course that's what we do. He speaks no English. We speak little French. Finally, we realize that he is saying that we ran a red light. Get this. It wasn't even RED!!!! So, after about 20 mins he walks over and proceeds to tell us that he is going to charge us 10,000cfa which is about $20 bucks for running a red light. Now, in America you would dance for them only to charge you that much. But, here that's way too much!!!

So, we get on the phone and call our guard who speaks English/French. He doesn't really help. We are about to take the ticket when they ask us why we are here in Togo. So, we try to tell them we are Missionaries. But, they don't really understand. Sis Jaydie ( the AIMer ) just happens to have an Acts 2:38 track with her. So, we give it to the officer. Then he changes his mind and dosen't even give us the ticket. He says "Ok, thank you. Bye Bye." So, we get out of there as fast as we can!!!

Acts 2:38 wins again. With Jesus and Jaydie you can't go wrong!

Love ya,
Hannah
