Hey family, thanks mom for the email. It's good to hear Beau is still alive and is walking good. Jared sent me a picture of him and he looks super old now. That's pretty crazy the tree fell down! It's good to hear you were able to go boating with grandpa on the river!! This week has been good. It's been hotter than ever, we are almost getting to the hottest time of the year here.  Transfers were today, I'm staying here with my same companion Elder Algeria again.  I'm good with it. I don't know if my  body will be able to handle the heat but I get along good with my companion and we work good together.   We have a few people that are going to get baptized here soon. Yesterday we had a cool experience.   We were walking in the street at about 4 in the afternoon, it was so hot I thought I was going to get heatstroke.  I was just trying to stay alive until the sun went down hhaha ( just to let you know there isn't anyone in the street from about 11 until 4 other than missionaries and dogs haha) but a man came out of his house and yelled at us to go over to him and we went to his house and he started telling us about the trials he was going through and we taught him for about 10 minutes and he wanted to be baptized. I know that especially here in Mexicali if we work diligently the Lord will bless us abundantly. We also found a family yesterday that is super awesome that we are going to teach tonight. It's been going good here, Elder McCracken got changed to Tijuana and Elder Watts is coming in his spot, he was in my district in the MTC.  Anyways thanks for everything fam, hope you have a fantastic week!

Love Elder Jacob Johnson
