So Tuesday we had meeting with the president and once again, I can't tell
you guys how awesome this guy is!!! I will miss him when he's gone!! But
during our meeting he told me, "oh, and by the way, you leave tomorrow
to a new area. and you're senior companion. And you're opening this area
as well. Missionaries haven't been in this area for a long time." So a
little bit of a shock factor, but all is well. So right after the
meeting, we left and I began to pack up. Not, a lot happened, but a crazy
day!
Wednesday we got to our new area. my comp is elder Treviño and he's ok. We started
learning the area and contacted people like nuts! We had to also set up
our whole house because they brought us everything that day. Our area
is city and a little bit of the boonies. I'm talking dirt road with no
lights at night boonies. Pretty cool! That night, I was kind of iffy
with my comp while we were walking the streets. We were talking about Rocky and he told me, "it so fake! I'm not a big fan." Needless to say,
it will be a long, long cycle...
Thursday,
opening an area is a little different. you don't know anyone, so all you
do is contact and get to know the members. So we have all our lessons
for this up coming week. But let me tell you something we do have. FOOD. I mean great food. Tacos, pizza, ice cream, tacos. Yes I said tacos
twice! Let me tell just say, I'd do more for these tacos than I
would for a Klondike bar that's for sure! Just so you all know, I will
be learning more about patience with my new comp. That's the last thing I will
say about him.
Friday was pretty boring. Nobody has time to talk until next week so we just
contacted and walked around getting to know our area. We also got ice cream that
night. It was pretty good!!
Saturday and Sunday were the same. Walking and knowing, but we do have a ton of
lessons planned for next week!!! Hopefully we get some people who are
interested! But Sunday we also ended up with someone who wanted to be
baptized!!! So we will definitely be working with her!
Sorry not to big this week! More success on the horizon!
Stay classy
Elder Johns
