Semana 41

 Hola


Highlights:
  • Finally got a haircut after two transfers 
  • Started the week out with Divisions with my boy Elder Santos from Fortaleza, Brazil! We started the mission at the same time back in June and I've been waiting ever since to be comps with him! We ended the day with an hour conversation where he spoke Portuguese and I spoke English and somehow we both understood everything
  • Also on Divisions we had a lesson with a lady named Vivian. We started out the lesson by singing "Soy un Hijo de Dios" and then I said a prayer to start. Immediately after I said "Amén" Vivian gasped super loud and started to yell "WHAT DID YOU JUST DO WHAT DID YOU JUST DO WHAT DID YOU JUST DO" and I was so confused but turns out she thought that we had performed an exorcism? I said no we did not in fact attempt an exorcism
  • Nothing too crazy happened on Wednesday, except for a lady who tried to "banish" us with a prayer to a saint so we just snagged a selfie and left
  • On Thursday we went on divisions again, and I got to go with my old Zone Leader, Elder Scott! We only had divisions for a half day but it was fire, I almost convinced him to let me drive the mission truck but unfortunately it didn't work
  • Had the Multizona on Friday, and after President Reber and Hermana Reber came with us to a lesson with Bianca and her Family! It went really well until Elder Rasmussen asked Hermana Reber to recite the first vision... ten minutes later she finished but luckily we still felt the spirit!
  • On saturday we got stranded out in the middle of nowhere because the busses here are the worst but when we got back to Formosa there were 50,000 birds just chillin flying around, send me a message if you want the video but it was crazy
That's it this week, make sure to reach out and let me know how you're doing!!

Cuernos Abajo,

Elder Johnson

  Hola a todos Highlights: This week on Monday our friend Maria Hellman appeared at our ward activity and told us that she wanted to be baptized... which was super awesome until we went to her house to teach her and she said that she had decided to leave the church... skipped a few steps there but its all good  On the topic of ugly dogs our friend Sergio's mangy dog followed us for about 2 hours on Tuesday and I almost punted that thing so far On the topic of kicking animals Elder Rasmussen and I were walking home one night and a GIANT rat jumped on my foot and I kicked that thing so far you have no idea There was an absolute Monsoon in Formosa the other day, it was raining/hailing so hard that our door got knocked off the hinges I am so confused by some of the music here. There's a lot of Drug trade that goes down on the street where we live, and the dealers LOVE to sit outside and blast music all night. The confusing part is that you might think that the tough street gangs w...

  Hola que tal mis weys Packed week, here's the highlights: Had divisions with Elder Rasmussen (other rasmussen, not the one who is 6'7) and it was litty, turns out we were both at BYU at the same time and we know all the same people so that was litty Also on divisions we went on visits with a kid named Thiago and he said "After today I have decided to go on a Mission" which was super dope!!  Found the best burgers in Formosa which isn't saying much but I was pleased On Wednesday night Elder Rasmussen and I went with the other ZL's and HLC's to Resistencia for a Leadership Conference and our bus ended up getting delayed for about two hours, so the whole trip ended up feeling like a big vacation. My good friend took a LOT of pictures and I added some below, enjoy Driving from the Terminal in Resistencia our Taxi Driver let us know that he regularly adds a dose of Cocaine to his daily Mate, I thought it might not be the best of ideas but he assured me that i...

  ¡Hola a todos! Here's the highlights from the past two weeks in Formosa Capital: It is really hot (Highest this week was 104°F with 98% humidity) and every single conversation that I have starts with somebody mentioning that it is really hot Elder Smith and I were knocking doors to try and find some members in the projects and a dude answered the door 100% naked. Turns out he was not the member we were looking for Went on Divisions with Elder Reyes in Centenario and participated in the most heated Ward Council meeting that I have ever experienced Found a goat and his owner said that if we want we can use him to ride around the neighborhood so we can get around faster. W I've been living the dream that I had throughout my whole 6 months in San Vicente because there are Elders who live closer than 3 hours away and we play basketball every Pday  Life is good Let me know how you've all been doing! Have a great week! Cuernos Abajo, Elder Johnson 1-3 Formosa Capital 4. Formosa ...
