Elder Johnson and Elder Zylstra

Elder Johnson trained Elder Zylstra. Now they serve together as our Assistants. So when they served together last time they had a member visit Sunday as they weren't supposed to go to members in the week. Thus they had 4 member visits scheduled that day. They went with the Spanish Elders as the ward at that time had both. They started with a family from Honduras who had a delicious dinner for them. They then went to another family who had a delicious dinner for them. They were getting pretty full. Then they went to another family who had prepared steak for them. They were about to pop! As they went to the 4th home they were thinking they were going to cry if there was food prepared.--THere was food. As they sat down to eat, one of the Spanish Elders started to barf at the table. He covered his mouth with his napkin and ran to the bathroom. THe other elders said he was sneezing. He came back and said Elder Johnson has a headache and we need to go soon. THe host said, no problem I have some aleve. Elder Johnson took the Aleve and they ate again and left. As they left the home, Elder Zylstra starts to throw up in the neighbors driveway just as the neighbor drives up. They hurried and took off their badges so they wouldn't know they were missionaries and one of the Elders got a hose and hosed off the driveway. Elder Zylstra was covered in throw up. They drove home in the stinky car so he could clean up and change. Elder Johnson looked in the mirroir and cried, "Oh No! I forgot I am allergic to alleve. The progressive photos of his experience are below and his last thought was all this for a headache I didn't have. Thought you might enjoy this kind of missionary story LOL
