Helllo from the Johnston's home in Mexico City

Hello everyone, it has been a crazy week. There has been so much happen since I last blogged. Our financial paper work is well on its way for us to stay and live in Mexico. We will be both working in the school teaching english. Our paper work should be summitted this coming week. This is wonderful because if it would not have been in before June 28 then we would have had to leave the country and try to return again. We have been really working on our spanish lately also. We have had our teachers coming in the mornings and then also in the night we have another teacher come over and help us out. It has been going wonderful. At times a little frustrating but really good. Our girls are now getting better. Everyone has had a run with a crazy cold here. Our bodies are starting to get us to the pollution here. Our lungs are being nicer to us know and our allergies are not so bad. We also heared about some medicne for my ezema around my eyes. This has been the most painful thing to get us to here. I thought if I left North Dakotas cold weather that it would help with my ezema, but I forgot about the pollution. I am sure thankful for the medicated lotion that I found. Our mentors have left on furlough and will be gone from Mexico for two months. We have a lot ahead of us in these two months. Our girls will be done with school in one month. In July we are going to a little indian village for two weeks. We will be staying with some Bethany missionaries that live there. Also we are helping with and working with the childrens pastors for the church. We are going to be doing a week long childrens summer bible camp in July. I could continue to go on and on but I need to ask all my brothers and sisters in the Lord to please be praying for my father (Amanda). He had a slight stroke on Wednesday. Please be praying for a fast and healthy recovery. I thank God for giving my father a second chance at life. I also pray that my dad would see the reason for this second chance. Many blessing to all!
