Still Alive 5/28/12
Dear Family and Friends,
So we had a little hiccup down here. Tuesday night the loser of the elections was saying that the other guy cheated and it was all over the news. President made us go home early just to be safe. Other than that the whole quarantine was pretty boring. Nothing happened.
Wednesday we had zone conference and Elder Cornish was the guest speaker. He focused on taking an interest in peoples lives and helping them apply the doctrines and feel the spirit, as well as helping understand that the Lord wants them to obey the commandment and not us. Most missionaries just teach the principle and then invite them to obey it, and then we wonder why it doesn´t work.
Thursday through Saturday was the usual, and Sunday one investigator came to church, but forgot her 9 year old at home who we are also teaching. I´m just trying my best to keep positive, and we are all excited for transfer calls.
Love,
Elder Nichols
