"And now, my beloved brethren, I would that ye should come unto Christ, who is the Holy One of Israel, and partake of his salvation, and the power of his redemption. Yea, come unto him, and offer your whole souls as an offering unto him, and continue in fasting and praying, and endure to the end; and as the Lord liveth ye will be saved."

Sooooo, its been 6 months already... weird

Hello again, it has been another week and it has been a good one!

Ok well it didn't start off very well, on Monday we had three times all set up, but the first tells us to wait for him while he finishes work and the time after him had randomly shown up and told us that they could not have us so we just waited for our first time to finish and do some contacting. But after waiting for a while he comes out and tells us that he is still working and asked if we could reschedule. We head up to our final time and wait for him at his house but he never showed so that day got got very little done, what can you do.

Tuesday we stopped by a less actives house; the less active was not there but his mother was, she had learned before and likes having the missionaries over. While there and trying to find out what she has already learned so I just started listing off the names of the lessons, The Restoration, Plan of Salvation, ect. While I do that Elder Anderson just puts all of the pamphlets on the table in front of her deciding that we will teach on which ever one she picks first. This woman immediately picks up the Joseph Smith one, we begin reading it, she often times didn't let other people read because she was enjoying the story and at the end repeatedly said "tsara be ity", or this is very good. It was a great time and we will see how she is doing tomorrow.

Thursday I went on my first ever member split, wooo! His name is Norbert, he is our 2nd Councilor in the Branch, and he is a returned missionary from South Africa so he knows English! We had a great time, while Elder Anderson was out doing our normal program I went out with Norbert to find less actives; to see where they live, if we could have a quick meeting, invite them to Church ect. We taught three LA's (less actives), I learned where a lot more live, one that I visited with Elder Anderson at the end of the day came to church on Sunday, it was a very good day.

Saturday we had a very good Zone Conference, President Adams gave a lesson on Honesty and Integrity, the Assistants gave a little bit on planning and being prepared, and for the final part we... watched Meet the Mormons! It was super good and we all enjoyed it.

That is about it for this week everyone, it was a good one, thank you all for your thought and support. See you all next week,

-Elder Nelson
