May 31, 2010

Hey everybody hows it going? Sorry for no emails last week it was a rough monday and a lot of stuff hit me all at once so I really wasn't feeling up to writing anything. But anyways here I am and this week was pretty good. I had a some cool experiences that were great.
People are very different in this world and at times it´s hard to see them do things that you know are not the brightest or people are just really stubborn and afraid to step out close to the edge to look down, because if they look down they might fall, but if they look down maybe will be able to see how to get down and get on the path that they need to be on. But they wont even try to come to the edge because they are afraid, and they like being where it´s safe being in ignorance and not being able to see if they can make it down. And to all those of you who don't get what I'm saying then read it again because I think this can apply to everyone.
So this week we were walking to find a reference to a house that the sisters gave us and we went to the street and the house didn't exist, so I said well lets start knocking doors which we do a lot, and the first door we knocked a guy came out and we told him who we were and we share about Jesus Christ and he let us come in and the lady that was in the kitchen had this look on her face of "oh no what did you just do". So she came over and we started the lesson about baptism, lesson 3, the gospel of Jesus Christ. They were both religious or they were both baptized as babies (they were Catholic) but we taught them about how Jesus Christ was baptized and teaching them about prayer and how they can know if this is true and the spirit was really strong. The demminer of the womans face and in here eyes just changed completely I know they felt something because I could feel it also. They are not married so we will work with that but they both have dated to get baptized for next month but we will see what happens. I love sharing this gospel.
Also we found this lady and her mom on friday and the mom was pretty against it because she was stuck on the whole all religions are good and they all lead to the same place even if they aren't following the example of Jesus Christ. But anyways the daughter is like 24 or and was really quiet but listened really intently. Long story short we told her to pray about if it´s true and we came back and she did and that never happens with people the first time. But she did and we taught her the restoration and she felt really calm about it and felt peaceful. We have another appt with her this thursday and I am really excited her name is natalie and she has a date for 27 of next month.
Well I gotta go but I love you all and hope everyone is good.
Love Elder Nichols
