Well life is so good.
This week has just been a roller coaster!!! We're in what's called a
"finding phase" which is where we don't have a whole lot of people to
teach so we have to spend our time finding them! So our days are pretty
much spent outside walking around and stopping every person we see who
passes us on the sidewalks. It's my favorite haha we meet so many funny
people.
Also here in Spain (or at least Catarroja
where I am) people don't live in houses. They live in aparment
buildings. So when we're walking around, if we see an apartment building
open, we go right in and start knocking all the doors top to bottom!
That's fun too, we make all kinds of crazy new friends. So that's been
this week mostly.
We
also have happy people who we're teaching! Hassan, turns out, is not a
huge fan of having to tell his family that he wants to change religions.
Makes sense. They're super practicing Muslims in Pakistan. So. He's
still coming to church and everything, but he's not ready to commit
himself. We're still teaching him, but it's more just to help him have a
better understanding.
Also
we have a family who we're teaching! And they LOVE us! It's actually so
cute haha they're gonna make us empanadas this week AND invited us to
Freddy (the dad's) birthday party! Who's pumped? ME! But anyways they're
super great and had actually met with missionaries like 6 months ago.
Freddy was to the point of getting baptized, but had an alcohol problem
and couldn't:(. BUT we met with him and he told us he's all better and
doesn't drink anymore! MIRACLE!!!!!! God sends us people who are
prepared! True story! I love them. It's such a happy thing:))
Also,
we play futbol every single Saturday with whoever wants to come and I
am getting so much better at that sport! It's super fun, whenever else
in my life will I have the chance to learn how to play futbol from pros
from Pero, Guatemala, Bolivia, y Spain. Never. So that's a fun thing of
missionary life I'm a big fan:))
Also
all you people who know missionaries who are serving in your area, our
favorite thing ever is to be taken care of by the members. The members
here LOVE the missionaries and it's SO cute because they literally just
adopt us as their children. It's the cutest thing ever. This week we've
had a lot of lucky "pass by member" times where they've invited us in
and fed us and given us people to pass by. I love this place. Lil
family:)))
Also THIS
WEEKEND IS GENERAL CONFERENCE!!!!!! The prophet and the 12 apostles
speak to the whole world 2 times every year, and this weekend is one of
those times! So everyone go watch it! I'm super pumped!!!
Okay well I love you all tons! Have the best week ever!!!!
Love,
Hermana Johnson
