Ya well it’s that time of the month! Exchanges! And I’m
staying here in good ol Universitario! So it’s gonna be sweet! Livin it up none
the less. One more exchange in the mansion so no complaints! Yayyay! So that’s
cool Elder Arancibia and I are staying together! So we are stoked, we know the
sector well together and things are going good!
We started out with a
stellarific District Meeting on Tuesday. The Zone Leaders talked about what
they learned in the Zone Leader council. It was sweet they talked about how we
need to teach simply and by the spirit, and how we can’t ever have excuses! And
then we did some practices, so it was way cool! That day we taught a bunch of
lessons and did some good contacts.
Then Wednesday came
we did some good studies in the morning, and then we left to go out and work,
and it started raining. We taught a less active guy, and then went back home to
eat lunch, and then after we had to switch with the Zone Leaders because they
had to interview the family that got baptized Sunday! So I went to Laguna
Redonda with Elder Wade and we had a killer day. We taught a bunch of great
lessons, I learned a bunch from him he is a great missionary. Then since it was
4th of July we celebrated it by eating a pizza from Walmart! It was delicious.
Then in the morning we had some sweet studies, and we did a bunch of contacts
and taught a couple of lessons. So it was all time. Then after lunch in the
house again in Laguna Redonda we switched back comps. And we had a killer day
Elder Rancibia and I. We taught a bunch of lessons. We found a guy who is super
Evangelical but loved what we taught, and we taught the Restoration. so it was
cool, and we stopped by the family we baptized to visit and teach them real
quick. So Thursday was a sweet day.
Then good ol Friday
rolled around and we did some weekly planning. We made some sweet plans for
this week. And we had a sweet talk. Then we went to lunch, and then we got
driven over to the family that got baptized and we started a fast with them.
And after we did that we went to the office to do another mini exchange with
the assistants. I worked with Elder Weston. He’s great he’s from La Cañada! So
it was cool to work with him. We taught the super Evangelical guy about the
Restoration and he understood it a little more but didn’t accept a baptismal date.
Then we stopped by the mission leader’s house to plan the baptism but he was
sick so we gave him a blessing, and then Elder Weston had to do an interview
for the Zone Leaders so we went and walked over there. But that was the first
time that the Assistants had gone on a mini exchange with someone in this Zone.
Because they usually only do mini exchanges with the Zone Leaders throughout
the mission. So it was way cool. Then we switched back at night.
Then Saturday came
and we did some good studies in the morning, and then we went to the chapel to
clean and fill the baptismal font. And like always something didn’t go right.
The heaters for the water didn’t work so we had to fix that. Then we went to
the Verdugo family to eat lunch with them and we ended the fast together it was
way cool. We had a soup that she made from a chicken that she grew in her
backyard! So it was way delicious. And then we had to go to the house and
change and get ready for the baptism, and we got to the church. And the service
ended up starting way late. But it went good! We took some great pictures, and
all 3 got baptized! So it was way special. It truly was a miracle worked by the
Lord to see that family arrive to that moment in their life.
And then Sunday we
confirmed them! And we did a family night for them! I made some chocolate chip
cookies American style to share with them! So it was cool they were all stoked.
We shared a message about the Holy Ghost, and played a game and ate sopaipillas
and cookies and hot chocolate! And took a bunch of pictures! It was way cool!
So it’s going great
here. I’m loving it! We are looking to baptize a couple people in the next
coming months so it’s gonna be epic! And The weather has been great it didn’t
really rain at all this week and we are supposed to be in the dead of winter!
So it’s cool. So have a great week and make it stellar! haha
les quiero,
Elder Johnson
