Dearest family and friends,
What a good week that I had this last week! We had another baptism and found 2-5 more before the end of this month! The work here is going crazily awesome and I absolutely love this area! It’s very sad to think that on the twenty third of this month I could be leaving but hopefully I get to stay for at least a little longer.
Last week Elder Beck, the Young Men’s General President came to our mission to give a training and to talk with us. The day before the training, he spent the day with the Young Men of the stake I am currently in. The next day when the missionaries were in a meeting with him he talked about it a little bit. He said…”yesterday I had the chance to interview a young man named Bruno.” My heart began to beat like crazy because I was pretty sure that he was talking about the Bruno that I baptized. He then said…”who are the elders that baptized Bruno?” President Pickett from the back of the room yelled out, “Johnson and Grange!” President Beck then went on to talk about how special Bruno was and how he liked the interview so much that he filmed it with his camera and was preparing to show it to the Prophet and such next week in a meeting about the YM program. How cool is that? The Prophet and the leaders of the church will all see a young man that I baptized. He also may be put in one of the Liahonas or Ensigns in the near future! Yeah, I have to say, getting recognition from a general authority is pretty awesome! Especially when it is in-front of the entire mission!
I did get the package from the family this week and I have been having a lot of fun with recording some cool things on that recorder. It will probably make you laugh instead of cry, but laughing is way more fun!
Well I sure do love you all!
Elder Johnson
