Parents...

We just received a hand-written letter from Thomas.  Wahoooo!

Parents-  

Thank you for your package.  It was very nice.  I loved the photos!  The food is very yummy.  I have 3 companions, 2 zone leaders and 1 normal one.  The 2 zone leaders are Elder Anderson & Elder Kliene.  Elder Kliene is from Germany.  Elder Anderson is from Tremonton.  He's a beet farmer.  Both are good men.  I get along with them well.  All of my companions are 20 or older.  I feel like I'm being babysat! 

Ther is a kid in my district that is from Hawaii.  He lives in one fo the small towns by Laie.  He's one of the nicest kids I've ever met!

Bremerton has a bunch of crazy homes here and we are told not to talk to the people that are talking to themselves.  Its a scary place.  We live by the pit and I hear gunshots every other night. At least satan has a firm grip here. It's the most awful feeling I've ever felt.

-Elder Johnson

So... if you have a spare minute, send Elder Johnson a package or letter.  He loves hearing from friends and family.  Plus, it sounds like he could use the encouragement.  His address(es) are listed on the right side of this blog.
