Ok. Good week. Good, good week. I’m kind
of done with my comp, but it’s all good. Baptism! Almost two, but the chump
backed out. But we will get to that in just a second!
Monday was our annual sports day! I was
pretty amped and probably went in expecting too much from our zone. But I didn’t
care! I have to say that we were good, just not good enough... When it was all
said and done I was pretty ticked because we lost and i was sunburnt so I was just
ready to go home. I did get a good looking hair cut though!
Tuesday we did alright. We had a lesson
with Adriana and her eight year old son, Erwin. She also has a daughter, but she’s
in that twelve year old rebellious stage so she doesn’t listen to us... Yet!!!
They are planning to be baptized this Saturday!
Wednesday blew chunks!!! We did
divisions and I had a greenie come with me in my area! He’s fine, he wasn’t the
problem. The problem was that we walked the whole flipping day!!! I’m talking,
take me back six months and shove me into the center of Cuautla again, kind of
nothing. Even the little old lady who has NEVER rejected the Elders since the
dawn of time, told us she wouldn’t be able to talk that day... good times.
Thursday wasn’t to shabby! We had two
really good lessons!! The first one was with Adriana and Erwin again. We
finished up everything up with them and they were ready for their baptism
interview on Friday!! Then the other lesson was with a lady named Dora. She is
most worried about the salvation of her kids, but not like in the weird Christian
way where she’s just looking that we can dunk them and then, yay we're saved!
She really wants then to find a good church and stay there and learn! So I have
high hopes for her. If you would send a prayer her way that would be awesome!!!
Friday. We had to run over and do a
baptism interview for one of our district leaders right after we ate. Then
right after we finished there, we had to tear back over to our interview with
Adriana and Erwin! My main man Elder Searle did the interview for us and they
both passed! What Up?! All set for Saturday's baptism!!!
Saturday. 6:50 a.m. We are bailing water
out of the baptismal font because the pump doesn’t work. Nothing new that
something goes wrong the day of the baptism. But we were waiting for our
mission leader to help us at 7:00am. 7:30am rolls around and we have finished
bailing water and the mission leader shows up... right on time. We finished up
there and ran home to shower because the baptism was at 11:00. So everything
was going good. Adriana got baptized, then it was Erwin's turn. But he starts
saying he doesn’t want too anymore... You have GOT to be pulling my leg!!! So
he weasled his way out of it, which is fine. Heaven was getting a little crowded
anyways... That was a joke. We still plan on
baptizing him later!!! Also, sorry I haven’t written as in depth lately. But I’m
back! Thank you for all the prayers that have been sent my way! As Always!!!
Stay Classy,
Elder Johns
