Whats up everyone, hope you all are doing good!
This week was a slow one for sure, I mean it went by fast, but as for the work, pretty slow. We've been working with a few new people which is good, but it's been hard to contact all the people that we need to in such little time. There just isn't enough time in the day. One of the people we've been working with is Samuel, who super solid. He always has time to talk to us always wants to learn more and asks a bunch of questions so he was basically golden for a long time until this past Sunday when he told us that he has some doubts. So of course we ask how we can help and what his doubts are and he starts off with the worst phrase ever, "... well I was watching a video on the internet about your church..." ...yes the internet is always the perfect place to go to in order to find the truth. There's never been a single person that has lied on the internet. So anyway, we have a lesson with him Tuesday so we'll figure it all out. But all I got to say is that if you want to find answers don't go to the internet, pray and figure it out for yourself.
But besides that this was an awesome week full of successes and fun times, we started the week of the dieciocho, which is basically like the 4th of July in America but for an entire week. The ward put on a party which was super fun a bunch of food so you already know I was there. A lot of kites, which apparently is apart of the culture here. But like these people actually know how to fly a kite, not just run with one. This one guy who made the kites for us somehow flew one up so high we couldn't see it any more and then he kept tying new strings to make it go higher which was crazy. So yeah I probably gained 10 pounds from that party and that was just the warm up. We'll see what happens when the parties actually start this week.
The last story I gotta tell from this week happened because my comp had too much trust. We had just gotten back to the pension when he turned to me and said, "man I need a haircut." Luckily I brought my handy dandy razor with me on the Mish and was all to happy to use it. So pretending like I new what I was doing I went to work. I don't think he knew that I've never cut hair before but like how hard could it be? 30 mins later this man had a very clean cut so basically I found my career for after the mission. If anyone needs a haircut hit me up.
Anyway not too much happened this week just know God's always there for you if you look for him you just gotta out in the effort.
Hope yall all are doing great
Elder Nelson
