It was a good week this week, the weeks are really starting to
fly by. Everything went pretty smoothly I finally got to go the Bolivian
flea market and do some shopping, I got 6 soccer jerseys and Chinese hat
and a flash drive. Flash drives are what all the missionaries use down here
to have music and videos and other stuff.
This should be a good month for missionary work, we have 5 people with baptism
dates and we found some promising investigators. We taught some interesting
lessons and some good lessons, everyday is different but everyday is good in the
mission.
We don't have a ton of opportunities for service cause no one ever wants our
help. Lot of mixed feelings about the missionaries here and a lot of little
churches and their pastors bash on us and the book of Mormon and how its evil.
I don't know if I ever mentioned this but I teach an English class at the
church. We were about to shut it down because we weren't getting non members there but
we found an investigator who teaches English and comes every class with her son.
We're hoping that they will be baptized but her husband is not very interested
and they're not married so that's something that they'll have to overcome before
baptism. We did a lot of contacting or door knocking or clapping in front of their house cause
they don't have a door this week. Couple of lessons with some very strange
people, and interesting conversations with people that are pastors for
their church. Overall good week and yesterday all the areas closed to the
city sang in an activity that our mission put on for Christmas. I have some
pictures from that I'll send.
Love
Elder Nelson
