seen a lot of elders here that i knew at school so it has been so fun to
pass them and talk to them everyday! so fun! i know have a missionary
sense of humor... i luagh and things that normally would not be funny to
me. the sisters and i cracked the other night and we laughed for an
hour straigh about nothing. i guess that is normal here. i have gotten

HAPPY FREAKING 18TH BIRTHDAY ON LAST TUES. I HOPE YOU HAD A BLAST! LOVE
YOU BRO. also you are going to love being a missionary! its the best! i
have a feeling you will be going spanish speaking. so you could start
working on it now... just saying ;)
tell jared that i will pass on the info that he wanted me to and i will see if i can get a letter sent his way!
so
every tues we have a devotional and they are just incredible! but
before it started and brother that is on the MTC board got up there. and
he was holding a fork and a spoon that had been bent in half. he read a
scripture about childish acts.... basically elder had been bending then
silverwaer wich is obiously not okay. and he called whoever did it to
repent and go visit him. it was intense and i couldnt help but feel bad
for those poor elders who got busted ha. the food here is pretty good. i
usually get a salad or a wrap cuz you can put whatever you want on it
and there are so many options. the dish room reicks though and i about
throw up every time i go in there now. i am going to buy a new set of
small scriptures today so i can remark everything and just to have a new
set. they give a discount here too which is bom.com.
it felt so good to see all the new comers yesterday and know that i had
made it a week! yaya! i love being a missionary it is the best thing
ever! the spirit here is so strong. when i start missing everything back
home the spirit lets me know that everyone is happy and doing well! and
that has been a huge comfort! i know that this church is true! without a
doubt! i love the gospel! thank you so much for all the support! i am
so blessed!
dad thank you so much for the finacial support. i know that that is
a huge sacrifice and i am forever grateful for it. i know that this is
where i am supposed to be and you helped me get here. so thank you. i
love you all!!! so much! and i look forward to hearing from you. keeping
sending letters though dearelder.com! i love it! talk to you next week!
all my love, sister johnson :]

go look at the quilts mom :) a little about my comp. she is half
african american and shes from toole ut. she is so nice and we get along
so well. her sister has major disabilities and she worries about her

sad. but she just has so much strength. she keeps going and going and
she is such a happy go lucky girl! i love my roomates too. we have such a
good time! i send all my love! and i look forward to hearing from yoU!!
