It has been a humbling week!

Good Morning, Good Moooorrrrnnniiinnggg!

It has been a humbling week this week. All of our plans fell through as well as our appointments, but I know that everything happens for a reason! God has a plan and it does include the harder times! Elder Domiciano is fantastic and tries to take on the world... and succeeds, so when I try to take on the world I stumble, but not without as large and giant smile. Even though it has been a trying week, it has been a great week that also ended off with a bang!

N. Is an outstanding young man and with his example we have met with his 15 yr old brother and his 13 yr old sister who look up to Nathan so much! Ever since N. has been baptized, his siblings have been really curious! N.’s mom is trying so hard to come back to church, but struggles. We are doing our very best to help her along the way!

Last night there was the recent-convert fast Sunday Fireside and N. was bearing his testimony. He invited his family so Elder Domiciano and I have had to find members who could go and also take N and his family in one vehicle. By the way petrol (gas) is 3 times more expensive over here (not including the exchange rate). We found rides for everyone and we made it! Nathan bore his testimony and right after, N said that it was the most moving thing he has ever been to. He is amazing! After the meeting we talked with his siblings and C.J. asked when we would be able to come over and teach him for the first time! It was a tender mercy for our tough work and rough outcome! Elder Domiciano was jumping with joy and delight, and I could not believe it!

Mom: First off, I love you so much and I am so grateful for your strength! Thank you for all that you have done to raise me! Also I was able to receive the Christmas packages just fine! I loved them! It is starting to get cold and I almost bought my own gloves, but then the package came! It was perfect timing! My health is great and I have been able to compromise with my companion about healthy eating as well as running two to three times a week! I have been able to keep a balanced diet! Next transfer is the 9th of December. Thank you for doing your best for delivering those letters!

Anyway I need to go!

Love you lots!

Love,

Elder Nichols
