Family,
I love seeing all of the
pictures that you send! Everyone is looking great and happy which is
what I like to see! Everyone is getting married, getting married, getting
married! I am happy for all of them and I love to see their progression! I am glad you were all able to go to Hailee's wedding! It sounds like it
was a good experience for her! I miss the temple so much! I cant wait
to go again! Oh how sweet that will be! Thank you for the e-mails mom and
dad. I love hearing from you and how you are doing! This past week flew
by! going on two exchanges a week makes it go by even faster! We didn't
go fishing last week but we are today! I am excited! Hopefully I catch
something fun! Last week when we were biking and walking we got caught
in a HUGE rain storm. There were flash flood warnings. It was crazy. We
saw the lightening so we went to a investigators home and we were there
for a bit until the storm died down enough for us to go back out and
make out way back to the car. We were soaked- I will send pics. I went
on an exchange this week with a sister from Australia. It was a lot of
fun! I loved her accent! (on a side note my favorite REO speed wagon
song is playing right now in the background! "keep on loving you" what a
tender mercy haha) anyways.... I learned so much from this sister. She
has been saving for her mission for three years. She is really dedicated
and I know that she is going to change so many lives out here! Her
family is from Samoa and she is so pretty! Exchanges are a blast! They
take a lot but its so worth it! We ate dinner with members last night
and that was so special! I love working with ward members and getting to
know them. our goal here is to really lift and elevate the ward so that
they can do the same for others! We also want to gain their trust
because a lot of them have non member friends and family so we know that
a lot of our work and success lies within the members.
I'm going to do this email a
little different than normal because I am low on time. I will tell you
about the pics I am sending :)
I love you with all my heart! You are the best family ever. I know Heavenly Father knew exactly what I
needed and you are my family FOREVER. What a blessing in which I am so
grateful for! I hope you all have a fun last week of school, work and
all that jazz! I miss you bunches!
love love love always, sis brooke johnson

1. Sis Rameriz is a less active
member who has been going through a lot of trials and challenges
lately. Sis Tuai and I have offered her some service, we helped clean
for a bit, and we visit her every week to see if there is anything that
we can help with. We are also teaching her parents about the gospel
right now. We pray that they will act upon their faith and prepare to be
baptized!
2. Sis Aisa she is so much fun. We had a lot of similarities. She is the oldest and has 3 brothers and 1
sister who is adopted! She worked so hard to be here! It makes me even
more grateful for all I have been given. She said when I come to visit
her that we can play sand volleyball and just "chill" ausy style ha.
3. Sis Rodgers is a new sister
as well. We had a great time. We went and got Cold Stone at the end of
the night to top it off! I look forward to seeing her grow through her
mission and become who she came here to be
4. This is right before the
rain storm came. We were already soaked because it was raining. Then it
really came down. I love my bike! It is so comfy and helps me get where I
need to be!
