Hello!
For p-day we went to a town in the middle of nowhere, however it used to be a small castle, and now there are a bunch of sword shops there and also a bunch of old buildings. It was pretty cool, once i finally bring my camera cord you´ll get to see all the pictures that i´ve taken. Eventually...
So this week has been a little bit better, {meaning more time for teaching} at the end of last week we started to have more time to contact and to have lessons, so now we should be able to get a little bit more of the work done. So something exciting that happened this week (other than general conference) was that after one of the sessions we had a lesson with a couple. The girlfriend is Mormon, but was less active for a while, but her boyfriend is not, though he has been coming to church for a very long time. Anyway, we had a lesson with them and proposed a baptismal date for the end of November because he regrettably has had a problem with the word of wisdom for a few years. However, he knows that the church is true and he enjoys coming and hearing all the spiritual messages. So yesterday night, we went to meet with him at his apartment and we gave him a plan to follow, that will allow him to completely overcome his problems. So the part that was really exciting about that lesson was near the end of the lesson when we gave him the promise, that if he trusted in God and completely obeyed with the steps that we had given him, then he be completely free in less than a month. It was amazing to be able to see the light that lit up in his eyes when we told him that he could stop and then later get baptized. It is really amazing how the faith that people have in Christ is able to make them happy and completely change they´re lives. If we all follow through the steps that we have been given.
So I have not taken any stick driving lessons, though maybe one day we´ll get it done, though first we have to find the time.
Well, unfortunately we don´t exactly have a whole lot of time right now, so maybe I can send a longer message next week, Sorry.
Hasta luego,
Elder Johnson
