Wrong-o!
Hey, fam! Guess
how many Elder Johnsons there are in the mission! And how many of them
are district leader. And the chances that my mission president mistook me
for the other Elder Johnson. But hey, don't stress it. I'll let the
Elder Johnson from Utah know how proud you all are that he's district leader
now in Huaraz. I'm not embarrassed!
I don't want apologies! But hey, Davi knows my mission president! He's
awesome.
My new companion is
Elder Sarria from Chile. He has one transfer more than me, and no, I'm
not his district leader. He's great and a lot of fun. We're really
excited to work together, because it's like we can learn from each other and
teach and take responsibility together. The thunder's coming! The
mission is changing, and so are we. Expect a lot more in terms of
pictures of baptisms! I feel like my own cheerleader right now.
One cool story from
this week: Antonio and Fausta Vilca said that they'll make the sacrifices
to get sealed. I almost started to cry when he started telling us that
the day we knocked their door, they were both being punished by God by the
things going on in their lives, and they were wondering if it was all because
they weren't active. Then we knocked their door, just a couple of
missionaries that were fruitlessly looking for less-actives for weeks. He
told me that Elder Bulacio and I are his angels. He's getting Sundays off
now, and he's happy to be at that faraway chapel at 8 in the morning.
So yeah, no
complaints. There's nothing that can replace that feeling. I'm so
glad that I got to work in the temple, because now, instead of talking about
the principles of just keeping the Sabbath day holy and enduring to the end, I
talk to less-actives about the plan of salvation and the temple. The
effect is far more powerful to those that will just listen.
Anyway, this keyboard
is terrible and my hands are tired. I love you all!
Elder Johnson (the one
that’s junior companion)
