| Lindsay explained in detail her recent past. I explained how Rhonda and I had found her first nearly dead in Iowa and then in Portland. Then Lindsay explained her experiences on her journey to Riverside. The pastor was quiet. |
|---|
| 🏍 Lindsay Etxeberria is giving the pastor her backstory to set the stage for what she herself had witnessed during her ride from Portland, Oregon, US to Riverside, California, US. David Guardia and Rhonda Bella explain their roles in bringing Lindsay to Riverside: first they rescue her from near-death on the side of an Iowa road, only to run into her in Portland. There was a reason David and Rhonda rescued Lindsay, this much was clear to everyone present. |

| "The other day David was speaking to a group of homeless people in Venice Beach. He was speaking in English, yet I was hearing him in Basque. Others heard him speaking Hindi, Russian, and other languages. I couldn't believe it." |
|---|
| 🏍 Lindsay Etxeberria was giving her eyewitness account of David Guardia speaking in tongues, and she wasn't the only eyewitness to that event. |

| "You were speaking in tongues?" the pastor asked me, to confirm." "Apparently I was. I was surprised, too." "Tell him about your journey to Sturgis," Rhonda suggested to me. So I did, including my critical meeting with Harry. |
|---|
| 🏍 This time it was David Guardia's turn to blow the pastor's mind with his own transformation after having his own near-death experience. The ride from Le Claire, Iowa, US to STURGIS was filled with moments where the presence of The Lord could be felt. Then there was the fateful meeting with Harry Hoqualogue, who was ready to dispatch him into oblivion until he read the message David had been carrying from the uncanny Manny Rey. It was as if Harry had become a different person. |

| The pastor considered all the three of us said. "Lindsay," said the pastor respectfully, "We would love to have you with us. You're also witnessing God's power in real time. Wherever you decide to be, you'll be in good hands." |
|---|
| 🏍 The reason for bringing Lindsay Etxeberria to Riverside was to make sure she had the support and encouragement needed to make the transition from the nihilistic existence of a far-left activist to a more hopeful life where she could experience The Lord in all she did and all she saw. David Guardia himself had believed that he was inadequate to that task, which was why he suggested to Lindsay that she let people with a proven track record and more experience handling these situations guide her in her transformation toward a more faith-filled life. It turned out that David himself had been aiding in Lindsay's transformation by letting her be a witness to The Lord's power as He works His will through others. |

| Lindsay looked at us, then at everyone else, then us again. "For a while,I was ready to leave the road to join you," Lindsay said to the pastor. She turned to us. "After what I saw in recent days, I think my place is with them." |
|---|
| 🏍 Lindsay Etxeberria was given a plan for at least starting the next phase of her life. Due to new facts and data which revealed themselves, Lindsay re-evaluated that plan and decided that the better move for her was to stay as part of Our Heroes. As wonderful as the people in Riverside would have been for Lindsay, she believed that she needed to be where The Lord's power was manifesting itself in real-time and before her eyes. |

| After the pastor hugged Lindsay and wished her the best going forward, Lindsay hugged Rhonda & me. She even hugged Harry. Speaking of Harry-- "Hey, pastor, it's not too late for this guy to get born again, is it?" We laughed. |
|---|
| 🏍 Knowing what he had learned of Harry Hoqualogue, the pastor was taken aback by Harry's request to follow the path toward faith in The Lord. Harry was a convicted killer, and if The Lord could use a murderer named Moses to bring His People out of slavery in Egypt to the Promised Land, then it wasn't too late for Harry to begin life anew. |

| We all went to the shore where the pastor & his assistants baptize people who seek to live new lives with The Lord as their guide. He slowly dunked Harry into the ocean. On resurfacing, he sounded like vintage Ric Flair: "WOOO!" |
|---|
| 🏍 Ric Flair-- known by many names, including "The Nature Boy" and "Space Mountain"-- is one of the most important figures in the history of professional wrestling. He's on par with Hulk Hogan as one of the top wrestlers of the last century. Although he was more of a heel during the 1980s and 1990s, he had become one of the good guys in later years. He was also famous for (among other things) his one-word catchphrase "WOOO!" 🏍 WOO is the Wrestling Organization Online, one of the newer play-to-earn games on Hive blockchain. The player is tasked with building a wrestling promotion from scratch: acquisition of talent, contracts, facilities, and real estate. |
Story Arc So Far
Our Heroes arrive at Riverside, California, US to bring Lindsay Etxeberria to Harvest Christian Fellowship where she would begin her transition from nihilistic far-left activist to more loving human being with help from The Lord.
After explaining the situation to The Pastor, there came a moment when Lindsay had to decide where she would be. While The Pastor was more than happy to take her in, he also understood Lindsay's decision to continue riding as one of Our Heroes.
Once this matter was settled, Harry Hoqualogue took advantage of the moment to begin his own transformation by requesting a baptism.
