Dear family,
It´s been a good week. The 14 year old boy Kevin that stopped us so long ago is now an investigator of ours! Turns out he does live nearby and he and his mom both want to listen to us. I was in Benidorm when they had the first lesson, but we´ll be seing him again this Tuesday. Keep them in your prayers.
Adrieli wants more time. Jose Angel is doing great- he keeps coming to church, is reading in Mosiah, and in his prayers promises God that he´ll follow Him all his life if he can just feel that the Book of Mormon is true- keep him in your prayers too. He was as pleased as punch when the sound copped out at a baptism he came to see, and he was able to fix the sound system with some tools from home- he was the hero of the day, and he knew it. The members are taking note of how faithful he is and are wanting to be more involved in the process. It´s exciting.
We were stopped on the street 3 times this week- one was an old investigator Pepito (possibly of Colby Maughan? said he knew a tall Elder Maughan), another a man who´s listened a bit to the missionary lessons and who wants to come to the genealogy activities of the church, and the third was my personal favorite. A 30 year old spaniard passed us on his bike, then stopped in his tracks and asked in English, "Hey, are you Americans?" Yes. His next question, "Do you know the Hokey Pokey?" Turns out he´s been some sort of camp counselor in the US and couldn´t remember the words to some of the songs he used to sing. He also really loves hymns from American churches, and said he´d like to come to our services sometime.
The Lord is very good to us. I´m excited to be with Hna. Nielsen another transfer in Alicante, and to see some old friends from the mission (Hna. Daines, Elder Miller) who are coming to this side. I¨m grateful to be part of this work with so many good people. I know it´s the Lord´s work and that He loves His children.
Sure love and miss you guys!
Love, Hna. Johnson
