Family,
this week was pretty boring. Not to much happened, and I don´t have a lot to say, but I will share the best part with you :)
This sunday was fast and testimony meeting. our convert asked us if she could go up there and share her testimony, so she went up and did it, it was super graet, and made me feel real nice haha. Then anothr recent convert from one of the sisters shared her testimony, so that just started the subject real quick, of giving testimonies on missionary work :) The best thing ever! Then a girl that we have been working with got up to give her testimony, she talkd about how her life had been going real bad, that things weren´t going the way she really wanted, and that she wanted to change her life. She shared about the day we showed up to her house and started to help her with this process. She has been going to church for 4 weeks now without missing a sunday, she has read her scripturse every single day, and now has desires to serve a mission. This really helped me to learn, that we nver know what anyone is going through, we never know when someone is going to need our help. We always need to be supportive and loving and always inviting and offering, because maybe they will say no 40 times in a row, but we never know what has happened between the 40th and the 41st time.
I love being able to help people receive the gospel. There is NO greater blessing. I hope you all will pray and think of somone you can help to receive it. It´s not easy, but its worth every minute of it.
Don´t forget to read and pray every day either. Thats how we prepare to share it. I hope you guys can all acheive your goals and do the things necessary to get where you want to be.
Alma 37:6
I Love you so much! Thanks for all your prayers!
Elder Johnson
