2016/11/23 - Happy Thanksgiving!

I wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving! Luke will be headed out to New Mexico next week, and I will post his mission address again in the next posting. He loves treats, especially cookies, if anyone would like to send him some.

Thanks,

Ross

Here is his letter to me (Ross):

its still great here, the other elder nielson is from Utah so we might be related.

while my companion and i were teaching a lesson all in spanish, there were some mexicans siting nearby, who were talking, but they stopped when we started bearing our testimonies, we could feel the spirit really strong, and there was a third weeker sitting nearby who told us afterwards he told us it was really cool, eventhough he didnt undersstand he could feel the spirit. entonces, thaat was a grreat experience this week.

im getting ready to leave on monday morning, my biggest suitcase that im going to check, i weighed this morning and it was 49.8 pounds. i will have to move some stuff around. its still great here, we will have a thanksgiving devotional, and im not sure much else.

not much else has happened, we are preparing to leave, i will miss them.

i was thinking about the coss country trip we wre wanting to do and i was thinking we could stop in missouri, more specifically independence and maybe zion. that could be fun. let me know waht you think.

The following is his letter to Becca:

tell everyone i say hello back and that its great in mexico. too bad about the basketball. thats awesome about bishop and the sister missionary. i dont think i will b able to get a sombrero. good luck with the silverwood trip. the refried beans dont look the same as back home, they are darker and more liquidy. no thanks to the bowel movement.

you can send me pictures if you want, i will send some back too.

And now for his letter to Mom (Jill)

i forgot to tell you i bought a converter so i can email you pictures, it was only a couple dollars.
and thanks for the package.

its still great here, i got the package on friday, there was dr pepper and 7 up, and tortilla chips and cheese dip and guac. there were also a bunch of reeses. the dips werent very good but everything else was great.

on sundays, we have our whole church before lunch, and a couple more devotionals and a class later, and a video or devotional to end the day. everything is usually spread out, and has some study periods between everything. it is one of my favorite days of the week.


not much else has happened, we are preparing to leave, and we are all excited to be out in the field i will miss them.

Elder Nielson
