This past week was really wonderful! What a difference a
companion can make!
On Tuesday me and Soeur Williams had our last lessons
together and it was a bit sad but really good at the same time! She has
progressed so much and I am excited for her future! We spent a lot of time just
talking while she packed and prepared to head to her next city!

On Wednesday morning Sophie and I dropped her off at the
gare and I spent the day with Sophie while I waited for Soeur Wade! I WENT TO COLLEGE!!! College in France
is sooo sooo sooo different than college in America and I never missed being at
BYU so much until this week! But then I read all the emails from my friends
doing finals week and I am much more grateful to be on a mission! It was cool
to be with Sophie but I did not feel like a missionary AT ALL!
Soeur Wade is my comp!! Soeur Jalen Wade is from Heber, Utah
and a transfer above me! We have only been together for 5 days but I haven’t
laughed this hard in a LONG time! TOO MUCH FUN!!
On Thursday we were talking to this lady on the bus and she
was super cool! We got her number but she INSISTED
on having our number too and so I pulled out a blank card and began to write
our number but then I realized that I don’t know our phone number and didn’t
have it written down anywhere..... So frazzled I did the only thing that I know
how to do and just wrote 10 random numbers down and told her that we will call
her. Then when we got off the bus and I told my companion what I did we just
laughed and laughed... until we realized that we don’t know our phone number
and so we had to do the call of shame and call the elders and ask them to text
us our phone number.... so now we will be able to give it out easier!
We went on a hunt for some members and let me tell you that
finding random addresses without a gps is a lot harder than in Utah. We may
have had to hike up our skirts and jump a few fences but hey we found the
places we were looking for!
We had a full week of FHEs with members for Easter and with
our cool Tahitian couple we had a jam session and sang... my comp is really
talented so I will profit bien with that!
I love love love FHE soo much! Yesterday we spent Easter with a really
cool family and received lots of chocolate which doesn’t do much for our 6
month to sexy but we will do better!
At church I received perfume from Marko... I get a head ache
from it but it is the thought that counts! And today is a holiday and
everything is closed but we just happen to be at the cyber cafe at the same
time as... LO!!! That guy that was in love with me. It was super awkward and he
bought us candy... weird!
I am so happy and just love being a missionary! Thank you
all for your love and support!
Love
Soeur Emily Johns

Happy Easter from the Johns' girls. |
