Hey family! How goes it!
Sounds like Leo
Carrillo was an epic trip like always! Tons of good memories there!
We had an epic week
also! We have found a bunch of great people!
We found one lady
who is from Washington. She is here teaching English. We found her one day
contacting these apartments. It was weird because she opened the door and did
the Chilean kiss thing so that caught us by surprise, and then she started
talking in English, so I was like whoa whoa whoa. I started trying to spit out
some English stuff but just made myself look like a goof. So finally we made
another appointment to go back. And we went back and taught the Restoration,
and found out that her boyfriend is a less active member, and that they’re
getting married next month! So it is great! They are great we just got to get
her to read and pray more. But she grew up going to church dances with her
friends, and her grandpa is a member and her ancestors are pioneers! They are
awesome! Yesterday we shared about the Atonement and it went quite well. So
pray for them her name is Jessica and her fiancée is named Jacob!
And we also found
another family. The mom and the dad are both Carabineros, or the Chilean Police
so they are sweet and they have little kids.
And we had a sweet week
with Ines. She is an Evangelical, and really active in that church. Elder
Robinette and Elder Ellsworth were able to get into their house on a mini
exchange and they gave her husband a blessing. And she is reading in the Book
of Mormon and praying. And on Sunday with a little persistence she came to sacrament! So it was
sweet! But then one of the sisters took her home after sacrament (whole other
story) So I was a little mad because she was gonna stay for the whole church!
But o well I hope it goes better the next week!
And we are teaching
Carmen and her family. They are great! The live on top of this hill in the
middle of two hills. They are great they like listening to us, but they always
travel outside of town to visit family on the weekend, so pray for them that
they can find it in themselves to make it to church!
And Elder Arancibia
is great. He’s from La Serena Chile. He’s funny, he’s always eating something.
We work great together, and we have seen a bunch of great things happen and it’s
only the start of the combio. He’s here for the right reasons and an example
for me!
And we are still on
the hunt for a house. We bought a newspaper that says all of the houses and
apartments that are for sell, but everything costs a lot here. So hopefully we
find a new one sooner than later.
I’ve been doing some
jump roping in the morning, and it’s sweet! It turns you into a stud! O and
Elder Rancibia had his birthday this week also. So we bought some delivery
pizza! It was great!
And I got my boxes!
They are sweet! Thanks everybody who wrote a letter! I love you all! Those
letters keep me animated out here!
This week a 70 is coming to the mission! So we gotta get
things ready for that, because they use our chapel to do the conferences in. So
it’s gonna be sweet! He’s coming to check up on how we are doing with becoming
a Preach My Gospel mission! O and something awesome is happening next
month!!!!!!! They are breaking the ground for the temple here! The site is like
20 minutes from our house! SO I hope that we can sing or something for it!!!!
So pray for us!!
We have been waiting
for that for like 2 years! So maybe I can see some parts of it being built
before I leave!
Well I love you guys
a bunch! Have a stellar week!
Stay stoked!
Elder Johnson
