CONGRATS CHERYL AND TYLER WITH THE BABY GIRL! THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!! Man, that is so crazy. I am so excited and happy that I don't even know what to say!!! Well, actually I do know what I have to say. Y'all better slow down. By the time I get married, and have kids, all their cousins will be like 4 to 8 years older than them. It is so crazy how the family has just been growing really fast. Now it's what, the Johnson family of 15? Dang.
This week was really great. We found a couple of families, and gave one family a date, and we hope to give another family a date tonight. I really am grateful for the chance I have to serve in this Zone and area another transfer. I feel like I am just starting to understand how to lead, serve and correct with love. The missionaries in the zone are all just totally awesome and good people. We got some really good missionaries in the zone
O yea, feliz Dia de San Valentin! This holiday is always lame. Especially this year, because I didn't wake up with the funny heart boxers that mom always gives me. Well, I guess I don't really need those. Maybe I'll stick with pajama bottoms. Elder Scavo and I went to the ward Valentine's day party with some investigators. It was pretty weird as missionaries. I was talking to Hermano Benitez, and he said this is my girlfriend, and he pointed to his plate of food. Then he asked if I had one, and I said no I ate mine already. I hope you get the joke haha.
On Sunday, I was sitting in the chapel looking around, and I was pretty sad because a lot of the kids I have baptized here, are already less active now. During the sacrament, I was pleading with Heavenly Father for a miracle, and for some of the recent converts to come to church. We called some before church and no one answered. Then right after the sacrament, Amada and her two sons that were baptized walked in and sat by us. She brought her niece and she said. Did you call me earlier today? I said yes I did, and she goes aww thank you soo much. She is the nicest lady ever. I hope she gets baptized.
She came to the investigator fireside that we had, and it was wonderful. She loved it. We had 45 people that showed up, and 14 investigators. It was really great. I had the chance to conduct it. It is always a scary experience conducting in Spanish. But I was happy for the growing experience. Things are going well here!
Well I thank you all for all the love and support you show me. I hope you all have a great week!
