Spiritual Experience of The Week


Dear all,

So sadly enough, it was another slow week, but I'm doing my best not to get discouraged. I know that even if I'm not finding people or teaching people, I'm not wasting time, as long as I am diligent in the work.

This last Saturday, there was a baptism, however it wasn't a convert baptism. It was a baptism for a girl in our ward named Cie. She is such a funny little girl who is very laughy and just smiles all the time. Seeing her get baptized was very powerful to me. When I saw her grandpa baptize her, I felt the Spirit so strong. Everyone could feel it. If only our investigators that we invited showed up! That would have been ideal, but it still helped me to feel the Spirit more then I had in a long time. It was a great experience.

Michael is making a little bit of progress. He is still smoking and drinking coffee, but on Saturday he told us that he was thinking about stopping and ways to help himself stop. He repeat one of our ideas for him, but the fact that he brought it up himself without us bringing it up like we usually do showed me that he is starting to get more of a desire to stop

As always, I hope everyone is doing great! I love and miss everyone back home. I am so grateful for you all and all that you do for me. I have been so blessed through out my life. Thank you all!

With tender love and care,
Ofa atu,
Elder Timmy Nelson
