Well family, I can't believe how another cambio has come and
gone and now I am left with my very last one.
The weather has been really rainy this week but luckily
today has been a great weather day, where I haven't needed a jacket but most
other days I have been needing my big coat and thermals the entire day.
On Wednesday we had a talent show. We did it on Wednesday because there wasn't work or school on Thursday and it was really nice. A lot of people ended up coming out and had
a lot of participation from the member. We in the missionary work did the
routine of a missionary using the midget man skit, Elder Wood was the head, me
the hands and Elder Peterson the feet, it turned out really good and everyone
enjoyed it. There was a couple of other fun create acts that people did as
well.
This week was hard on the teaching side of things because
everyone went on vacations out of town and so we had a lot of appointments fall
but it ended up being a good week in the end as we had 4 investigators in
church which was really good.
On Saturday we received the cambios and it looks like
i am going to be ending my mission here in Rahue Bajo which i am really excited
for. A Chilean named Elder Thomas is going to come in and be my companion. It
is going to be crazy to think about going into my last cambio but it will be
great.
I had a cool experience today, we were in a supermarket
Jumbo which is almost like Wal-mart and a guy says: "Hi elder!" in English so we
start talking. He is a Chilean that lives in Nebraska and is a professor at the
university of Nebraska. He teaches political science. We were talking a good
bit and we talked about Utah because he went there one time and wanted to go to
temple square but wasn't able to. I got his number and email and told him
when I get back to the states, if he comes to Utah, I will take him on a tour of
temple square. He was a really nice guy.
Well, I am planning on calling at 6:30 Chilean time on
Sunday which will be about 4:30 Utah time or 3:30 California time. I don't know
the address that i will be using but do have a member and will see if they can
get it set up before Sunday. I am excited to talk to everyone on Sunday.
I love you all!
Love Elder Nelson
PS. See you all next month (I can say that now haha)
