God is merciful because in my anguish at age 17, my mom came up with a cause that the family situation was bad because we stopped going to church. In our church shopping, one pastor invited me to the youth night on Wednesday. I had not been to a youth night that I can recall, but since I was invited I went. I felt like I was the only one there and no one talked to me. I left telling myself I would never go again. However, when I went to open my car door, an unexpected event happened. The youth were having a water balloon fight. Someone came around the corner of the church and threw a "Hail Mary" in my direction. I estimate it was about 12-15 feet. I watched it sail through the air like the balloon was in slow motion. It landed right in the middle of my chest and exploded. I was so shocked I found myself chasing the person and then getting involved in the water balloon fight. I owe my salvation to a random throw of a water balloon. Strange but true.
