Post Thanksgiving Hello!

Hello everyone! I miss you all so much! I am here in Wigan and loving it.

The weather is starting to get colder over here and I just cannot believe how fast time flies... it is very strange, but hey time goes faster when having so much fun! Transfers are coming up very shortly and it'll be interesting to see who leaves out of my wonderful and loving district.

It gives me a great warmth in my heart to hear that members of the ward are asking about me. I love them all so dearly. I have taken the Fruit Heights 7th Ward for granted so much and I didn't even realize how amazing the people are. We are truly blessed and I am so blessed to be raised in Kaysville/Fruit Heights. In the world today, there are so many people who go throughout their lives and they don't even see the glory and greatness that comes from living. Its time to start looking, counting, and living our blessings instead of singing them and not applying them.

Snow is already in the air over in the States? Darn, I miss those times. I really wish I was with my family, but I still love my mission and I know that there is no better place I can be than in Wigan.

Grandma, poor thing, I am praying for her every night. I hope she gets better soon. I am also glad to hear that Grandma Z. is doing all right and not cooped up in that prison haha.

We (Elder Domiciano and I) have had so many miracles and even more so since it is the time of the Savior and His birth. It’s a glorious time and Christmas is the best time to find and help come unto our Lord Jesus Christ. Just this week we have found three new investigators/friends just by talking about Christmas and even a little about THANKSGIVING! Ahh, how God shows forth his hand and helps others soften their hearts to hear His word. I am privileged to Live, Teach, and Preach the Gospel.

Mom and Family: I am reading all the books that are approved and studying each and every day. My knowledge of the Gospel has grown so much in the little time I have been here. I bought myself a new winter coat, a scarf, and a new (good) umbrella that should last me for a while. Thank you for putting money into my account. I will have to send a picture of me using all of them to show you how nice it all is! I love you all so much, Oh, Brycie! How was passing the Sacrament for the first time? I remember the first time I passed it and it was fantastic! You are a great young man! Keep being an amazing little read headed brother! Spencer, I love you broski, I would love to email you and if you haven’t read my last email, I sent one to you a while back. I wish I could be there for you every step of High School! Mom, I can see how much work you do, and I am so grateful for your wonderful example and love towards all of us. Dad, you have been a great supporter throughout my life and a great friend, I think of those times we would do fun stuff together especially going to Rhodesia Grill, Cabella's, then going to Inception. Derek, oh the brilliant times we had watching movies together and talking superhero stuff. Kaitlyn, thank you for keeping my older brother in line and keep supporting him.

I love all of you so much

Sincerely,

Elder Scott Nichols
