Elder Mitchell Olsen: July 9, 2018 Happy 4th of July

Dear mom and everyone,

So, this was a pretty normal week. Monday, we ended up with a lady that makes trinkets and stuff like that after looking for a few people that weren’t there. We were teaching her but she's not too interested so we just stopped to say hi and to ask about a few things I had asked for.

Tuesday, we went to Nochixtlan for the district meeting so we got back a little late. We went to eat and went looking for some people we ended up being late to almost everything that day, it was pretty frustrating. we ended up buying tacos for the last people we saw because we were going to see them in the church but they had already left so we told them in they came back we would buy them tacos. We had a cool lesson. They are a couple. One is a member and the other isn't, and as soon as she gets married she's going to get baptized. Then we enjoyed tacos.

Wednesday, we went with the Herbalife lady again, she gave us some free Herbalife which is like a milkshake type of thing. Then we went back home to study and we made hamburgers for lunch because they gave us money. One of the biggest hamburgers I’ve had. Then we went with a lady that suffered a stroke a few years ago and her daughter. We taught them and ended the day getting stood up by apart member family that has a dry member waiting for his wife's divorce.

Saturday, we went with a couple that works in a chicken butchery thing (pollería). We talked with them for a while, then we went to eat. After that we went for the Lady with the stroke, then we took had English class and her daughter came with us. We then ended the day going with the family of the one that shared his testimony. He was out of town working but they are getting really close to getting married.

Sunday, we had a lot of people come to church. An old investigator came back and other are continuing and it was really exciting. There was an incident though, a little girl had a seizure. They took her to the hospital and they say everything is fine now, they are just checking why it happened.

Today we got up early to go play sports with other missionaries and a few youths from another ward it was fun and we got our minds off of things.

The weather is fine, sometimes hot and sunny other times cold and rainy. We have quite a few investigators, if everything works out well we should have 10 baptisms this month. My comp is fine and ya he got it a few weeks ago, I actually took a pic of it so you can check that out. We decided to stay in the house we have, at least until I leave. The ward is good, it the most supporting ward I've had so that’s fun. Our WML is a recently returned missionary and seems like he's still getting the hang of things in the real world. This is a video he made in the mission https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8MIaUOC3Ko There are quite a few youths but they don't really get close to us. There are a few that are cool and go out with us. Oh, and my comps mom's name is Tammy Johnson.

Welp, I love you all I got to go bye!!

Elder Johnson has such a fun personality
