All rise ye loyal cougars and bring your callenge to the foe!
Dear Those,
A wonderfuly exciting week hás passed again! Anything from a birthday bash to saving a woman from taking her own life.... I'd say it will be a week to remember for the rest of my life. Starting with the life saving.
We were walking to an appoitment and a lady came running to us and said..."help that lady, she is diving in front of cars trying to kill herself!" we ran over and after being sworn at a little we resisted and returned like dogs with our tails between our legs. After deciding that I really didn't want to see a woman die I went back. I said to her. "sister, I am a representative of Jesus Christ and I am here to help you!" Yeah.. gives you the chills doesn't it! She started sobbing and told me that no one believed her.. I asked her about what? She just kept going on about how no one belived her that she wasn't like that usually. After Elder D pulled her away from the latest on coming car I talked her into going back into her house. It was in there that we learned that she was actually possessed by something.. and that it actually happened to her alot. At that moment I kind of had a little freak-out inside me but after talking to myself I went back to talking to her.. she tried to grab a knife and stab herself but her husband stopped her. I told her to go rest and she did and we left. Long story short I am now a hero and you can now call me....SUPER ELDER JOHNSON with my side-kick SUPER ELDER D. (who happens not to be going bald and is not trunky for his girlfriend.) jk
Birthday was good! Thats right mother! You have a son that is 20! That is significant that you are old now!!!/
Sorry for that
Sure do love all of you guys!
Elder Johnson
P.S.

Dear those,
How goest you? I'm doing great. Today we climbed a great rock that was steeper than anything that I have ever climbed in my life. The worst part was, it started to rain when we got to the top which made it a great big slip n´ slide.. the only problem is that there was cactus everywhere with great thorns on them. So this week I will make 20 years. Fairly excited. As well as I am excited for the byu game next week!!! Should be good!
I saw monkeys today.. they are crazy.. we got a little close and they got in the tree and started shaking branches to try and get us to go away.. so we ran away fairly fast.. I got it all on film! I'm sure you will love it when you get these films. They're really good! This keyboard today is really terrible.
So crazy experience.. there's these really annoying girls about 15 years old sitting behind us asking us for our email addresses.. its quite annoying to tell you the truth. They don't take no for an answer.. time to bring out my bat!
Sorry I'm so rushed but we got back late today and have to get to work here in a few minutes.
Love you all!
Jeff

So.....My family........how are you?
This week has been a blast! We are working our hind-ends off and loving it! We have a fairly solid baptism marked for this saturday and I am way excited because now that my area has an actual chapel I wont have to baptize in plastic bins of water anymore.
Today we're going to go play volleyball in the sand with the members. Don't worry, stay calm... we're not going to the beach.. There's a sand court here in our little area.
So about my area, it's very small...probably like the size of Genola but with 8000 people, and there are snakes everywhere.. (snakes= young girl or woman interested in the missionaries because of one of three things; 1- they are american, 2-they are missionaries, 3- really good looking) Un-luckily for me I have a problem with number one through 3 so I have to walk around with a bat here.
sure do love you guys!
