exciting week this week.
General Conference was good, it was probably one of my
favorite parts of this week. we watched all of the sessions of conference at
our church building. they had it in both English and Spanish in our building,
but the three of us that are still greenies watched it in English so we could
get the most out of it as we could, while out senor companions watched in
Spanish. one of the talks that i liked the most, i don't remember his name, but
during his talk he invited all investigators who were watching general
conference to be baptized, and i thought that was pretty cool.
Transfer news. on Saturday, we found out that Elder Cota and
Elder Ziebarth are staying together and i am being transferred to an area
called Hatch in New Mexico. I am being moved out a trio, right back into a
trio. i don't remember my companions' names, but one of them only has a couple
transfers left and the other has one less transfer than i do. trio life is the
best. i have heard from other missionaries that Hatch has one of the best green
chili burger in new mexico and maybe even the country, i'm excited to try it.
its in a restaurant called Sparky's, abut its only opened Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday. my new area will cover a town called Truth or Consequences, so that
will be interesting.
for the past 2 days i have been stuffing all my stuff into
my suitcases and hoping it will fit, because if it doesn't, its going to be
trouble.
last Monday, on the way out of the library where we email, a
guy stopped us and started talking and kept talking, and talking. we even took
our conversation outside, but he kept talking. the only thing i remember from
our conversation, was when he asked in a quiet voice if we voted for trump.
then later he started making jokes about how trump will be assassinated by us,
because we were in our white shirts and ties. he was saying that i would be the
shooter, Elder Cota would be the guy with binoculars making sure everything is
going all right, and Elder Furlong would be the guy who keeps the girls
occupied while we did the job. he was crazy, but completely hilarious, because
he would talk nonsense half the time.
my spiritual experience of this week, was when we watched
conference, and were able to watch all the sessions, and take notes on them
all. i felt the spirit a lot throughout each session.
Es todo, les quiero,
Elder Nielson
