Well, Trump won. Now, I don’t care if
you like the guy or not. But at least you don’t have to check your back around
every corner because of the color of your skin since he won... sheesh!
Tuesday was dumb. Why you might ask?
Well it all started a week ago when we had to get a shot for the cold season
that's coming. That was the worst. "Elder Johns! What does that have to do
with this Tuesday?" Well I got sick this Tuesday... What the flip?! For
those who don't know, I hate shots. I mean- I pass out. So if I'm going to go
through that kind of sick joke, I expect it to work. Not that a week later I
get sick. Ain't nobody got time for that!!!
Wednesday was cool! We had a meeting we
Elder Pino from the seventy. It took most of the day, but we did have one
lesson that night. We will see if they get to church. If they do there will be
more info on them next week!!!
Thursday was a great day. Not so much in
work but just in general. We took a trip back to Cuautla... Now I've been
anxiously awaiting this day for a week now. We had a meeting and it was in the
stake center right next to my old area so I knew I was going to see people I
knew. I also knew it was Thursday which meant 2 for 1 fraps at Romans!!! (Romans
is the ice cream place that got me through those 9 months if you'll remember.
So I had to go back and pay my respects). The trip was 3 hours and we went with
two other white dudes and spoke English the whole time. We got a bunch of dirty
looks especially when we were yelling at each other across the bus. But it
was totally worth it!!! So, as prophesied, I saw many people I knew and I did
get my 2 for 1 frap before the meeting. After the meeting ended, we grabbed
another frap, because who knows when we'll be back there, and we headed out on
the 3 hour trip home. Pretty chill day!
Friday. Two words: Awesome!!! We went
about doing our thing and cruising the streets of Mexico. But it started
getting cool when we had our last lesson!! It was with Remedios and her kids
Jessica and Jorge. We were teaching about the Plan of Salvation, along with
using the good ol' Libro De Mormón! And every time we finished reading a verse,
Remedios would say, "It’s so clear! It makes so much sense!!!"
Honestly, I felt like Rocky from Rocky IV, because what once was a hostile
crowd against the Book of Mormon is now cheering for it!!! And Satan is
thinking, "They're not men... They're pieces of iron!" Ok, maybe the
Rocky example is a little far fetched, but I don't care. You can never go wrong
with Rocky, and you can never go wrong with the gospel!!!
That's how my week went. Hope you were
also able to relate yourself to Rocky as well this week. Please pray and read
the scriptures. They are true. And they will be very valuable to you if you
don't treat them as a burden!!! As Always!!!
Stay Classy,
Elder Johns
