Today is my 6 month mark in the mission, which means I just have to
repeat everything I've done two more times! haha just kidding. It's not
quite like that. It's realizing that everything I have done so far has
prepared me and taught me things to help me excel in the mission field
with only one year left. Everything from this point forward means I
have less than a year to make this count!
Today I am limited on the computer at the library. Let me get out the highlights!
Friday Aug. 3
Stayed up late decorating our apartment with two of the other sisters to surprise Sister Pipes on Saturday for her birthday! It was a lot of fun. We even took a picture poster of Justin Beiber and taped it to the chair. We said it could be here birthday breakfast date. I also said she could pretend it was Enrica if she wanted. I forget his name, but it's the spanish version of Justin Beiber
Saturday Aug 4
The ward picnic was a Blast!

The ward picnic was a Blast!
- Sister Pipes birthday
- Yassmin's birthday
- I climbed a tree =)
- super humid!
- Sister Britton did awesome facepainting
- I got to spend a lot of time talking to members of the ward
- I also realized how much I love throwing a football back and forth, as well as a baseball when I'm wearing a mit! I'm pretty athletic =D after the elders teach me some of the techniques.
Sister T's birthday
I received a lot of spiritual guidance. I fasted for a few things. One of the things was for the people the Lord is preparing in NY. I was inspired by the spirit about a really cool analogy. I shared it in testimony meeting. I'll write what it is next week when I have time. It's about how our ward is like a search and rescue team.
Also, I got a package from my mom. Thanks mom!
Monday Aug. 6
That night I was talking to our investigator Joe on the phone. He told me to tell my family not to worry about me; he's got my back! lol
I got a letter from Tristan =)
Tuesday Aug. 7th
Legit day!
We taught some less active members, had some appointment with active members, had a couple of people feed us, and ended the day reading from the Book of Mormon with Joe. He is really relating to Nephi and loves the courage he has!
I love you all very VERY much!
I'm sorry this is short but I'll talk to you next week.
Love,
Sister E. Johnson
