This week was the move out of San Carlos and Escalante. We
only found out about a week and a half ago. It was a big surprise for us. I
don't know exactly how it affected our zone yet. I will find out this week in
our mission leadership training on Tuesday. I just know that we now have a lot
more elders in the zone because almost every unit has 4 missionaries in them
now.
As far as this week, we had a really good week. We didn't
get anything new as far as Sunday went, going to church, but we made a lot of
progress and have some pretty good investigators that are coming.
The one looking like our next baptism is Chienna. We talked
to her mom this week and taught her a short message about families and she said
that she had her religion but she was good with her kids choosing for
themselves. That means that we can probably baptize Chienna. We will probably
do that on April 19. The next we are hoping for is Carmela. She works for the
bishop of our ward. She is making progress and she really wants to get an
answer if it is true. We were teaching her and she kept asking "How can I
know if this is true?" We are hoping she will get an answer soon then she
will be willing to be baptized. After that might be Rica. She is doing good but
something is going on over at her house. We weren't able to teach her this week
because of family. She wouldn't come to church this week either so we are
hoping we can figure out what is going on there to help her this week. We also
have a new investigator named Jenick (Jan-ike). She is really good and
understands a lot of the doctrines. She looks really good. We feel that Brother Planilla is coming but he hasn't
come to church yet. Maybe next week we can get him there by using his family
and the importance of the priesthood in his home.
It was a good preparing week. We hope that next week, we can
start getting people coming to church. That is all they are lacking right now.
Sincerely,
Elder Nielsen
