*Missionaries in Bolivia go on a three day lockdown during one of the festivals the country celebrates. Missionaries are given challenges by their Mission President for the weekend. This email came after the lockdown.*
It was kind of the opposite, after a 3 day vacation it was
hard to not be lazy. I just read the BoM and played hearts with the other
missionaries. It did make me want to read the book of mormon more. I finished
it for the first time in spanish so thats 1 for the mission 3 times total.
Right now I have to read the BoM every transfer, so every 6 weeks. Its just 15
pages a day so not a lot. Its hot here but its moving from summer to spring and
then to winter. It rains here a ton, its basically a rain forest here. Cool for
the mission call for Cade. Right now we have a super cool family. The dad was
baptized a long time ago but the mom no. They have four kids and two can be
baptized. Yesterday we taught about marriage and that they need to get married
to be baptized and she said it made sense and that shell talk to the dad about
it. They are super awesome and I really hope we can baptize them. Im very excited for my
package! Things are good here and I hope its good at home. It can be pretty
miserable to be sick sometimes but it makes me appreciate being healthy more. I will humbly accept all gifts when I return home, at the end of this
transfer ill have 7 months! only 17 more! Also mothers day is coming up
when I can call home, so thats great.
Love and miss all of the
family.
Elder Nelson
