Dear All,
So this is my first transfer week of my mission. My companion and I are staying in North Platte, so no address change at all. However Elder To'ofohe is being transferred. I'm sure going to miss him, but I'll see him at Zone conferences and such every now and then. I'm just going to miss having him here to make me laugh and such. He has always been so caring and giving to me since the moment I got here.
As for my spiritual experience of the week, this weeks edition is going to focus on an investigator named Saine. Saine's story started since before I got here. Elder Hollingworth (my trainer) and Elder Body (his trainer) found him walking around with a cane one day. They talked to him and he said one day he woke up and he couldn't use half of his body and turns out he had a stroke. Saine is from another country and speaks very poor English. Well they asked Saine if he wanted a blessing and if he had the faith to be healed and he said yes. They gave him a blessing and within a week later he was walking without a cane. When I got here we talked to him and he wanted an Arabic Book of Mormon so he could read it better. We ordered it and it ended up taking forever to come in the mail. By the time we got it we went to his apartment and he had moved. The own of the apartments had no clue where he was, only that he stilled lived in North Platte. It seemed as though we would never see him again, but for some reason I had the feeling that I shouldn't worry about it. Well about two days later we are driving and we see him and his car at the park. We gave him the book and he asked us how we found him and we said we were just driving and he thanked us like a hundred times and instantly thanked God for sending us. It was really powerful to have Heavenly Father place us in the right place at the right time to find him. There is no way we could have found him without the help from our Father in Heaven.
I hope to find everyone doing well! I love the work and will continue to do my best out here! May everyone desire to come closer unto Christ! I love you all! And I love all the letters and emails I get from everyone!
With tender love and care,
Elder Timmy Nelson
P.S. my next p-day is next Monday, so y"all might be getting an even shorter email then. But who knows! Haha
