Serving with The Armour of God

Elder Johnson , Early morning in Chinique

6-20-2011

The picture I sent home for the week is of me enjoying the early morning in the city of Chinique. We had a baptism fall through this week we had to marry the people and the guy backed out at the last minute and without having them married we couldn't baptize the lady, but no worries the husband will come to his senses one day. On the bright side we do have another baptism for the 3rd of July.....The kids name is Harrison he's 18 and he's been investigating the church for about 3 years now. He has read the Book of Mormon twice and he is just now making the decision to get baptized by us!!!!! Pretty cool huh. I honestly don't know what you want to hear because not much happens here other than all the drug dealings my companion Elder Snell and I see. I guess Chinique is a very large drug trafficking town and it's not as quite as we had first thought. President Ordon informed us to avoid the police at all cost because they are paid by the drug cartel and moonshiners. We also learned that 4 out of every 6 houses we pass sells drugs or some other sort of illegal substance. Quite interesting if you ask me, but we are definitely a little more on our guard now and always looking over our backs. I'm getting into writing letters lately so I'll start writing everyone a little more personally, it helps me to pass the time.

Well that's all folks!
