What should my subject be next week?

I listen to the waves when I write these emails... they keeping lasting like the caves our Father created!

Sorry I love sending emails to y'all! Only a few left so forgive me later.

Chris wasn't able to make it to make it to church today and was really sick, but I wanted to share a story about him.  When we first met him he had just found out he had hundreds of blood clots land in his lungs and it
was gonna take 6 to 8 months of recovery. Well about 2 months ago we gave him a priesthood blessing and this week he went into the hospital because he wasn't feeling good and they took some look at the lungs and there were no more clots and his lung that had calasped? (I don't know how to spell that) was I full working condition. This is powerful!!!

Brother Wade finally got back to me and said he was cooking and had a plate for us (he is known to be the best cook on the Res) so we went over And he made ribs with Dr Pepper bbq sauce!πŸ€—πŸ€— so good......

Holly is the best.  She told us at work the other day she told a coworker about the church and gave them a Book Of Mormon.  She is the best!

This last pday we did some kick boxing down in Charlotte and it was pretty fun!!

It's Me!

Hello outside world🌏 πŸ––

Well we helped finish Chris's porch with brother Osborn.  He is a life saver and Chris made it to church and wants to be baptized on the 9 of next month! We're so excited for him he's gonna be such a Great member
of the ward. His wife is still trying to get work off on Sunday's to come but we have a lesson on Tuesday with them and bishop and his
wife.

I went on exchange to Monroe and it was a blast.

We had zone conference with two zones and one had Elder Hatch! He was my favorite companion. We got to joke and share some love. But president talked about a few different things that got me going... We talked about the Atonement and the fall of Adam and Eve and how important both of these are.

We also went into why virtue is so important to always have Christ on our mind.

Well thanks I love all.

Just go ahead and feel this pillowcase (June 20, 2016)

My good people of the world I wish to give a shot out to my father the best man around the one who can uplift anyone's day! And who has taught me many lessons through his love inspired correction.

Well nothing to funny happend other then I was inspired to drink some soda and then I had to use the restroom so we stopped at one and come to find out the lady at the cashier position called out "elders" and
we turned around and talked with her.  Her mother is a active member of the ward. She had recently lost her home to a fire and was slowly being prepared to move back in with her mother and have the support she needs to be baptized! We are very excited.

Each day we find more joy. I love each one of you more then you can realize!  The excitement comes into my heart when I think about each one of you meeting your goals in life with the Savior by your side.

Gilbert blues funeral was this week and around 800 people came.  Everytt and I were ushers for it and it was great! But they think they have this traditional thing where they play the dreams and sing Indian stuff but Gilbert asked them not to before he died he just wanted a dedicatory prayer. So the sun was out shining and after they gave the prayer right when he said amen thunder strikes and it starts pouring rain and they try to do all the stuff Gilbert said not to do and it
was epic!!! L

Love you.

Hey, it's Elder Nelson! Yo yo! (June 13, 2016)

Well let me get into it!


So this week we had zone meeting and the zone leaders did an outstanding job relying the message president wanted them to!

While we went to go pick the car up in Monroe we did service with those elders at the humanitarian habit place! Then had some Little Caesars. It was a good time so funny!

I posted a photo of a kid and us playing ball and I'm gonna give a shout out to dad for teaching me all the skills so I look like I'm descent at basketball! Hopefully we will see him tonight!

We took Chris on a church tour and he loved the church building and he expressed how he has felt that this is the only true church and that with his study of the Book Of Mormon he has come to know that it is the word of God! He has had issues with smoking and he was at 2 packs a day and he has cut back every week since we saw him and he is only at a quarter pack right now and plans on quitting within the next 2 or so weeks! πŸ˜ƒ powerful to see him grow! His kids even talk more about Christ! His wife is trying to get work off on Sunday's right now to
make it to church and we have only taught her a few times! The spirit is working full time at their home!!
We have a service project there with the young men's presidents group on Tuesday and we hope a lot more fellowshiping will happen!

Sad news is Chief Gilbert billy blue passed away the other day. We will be attending his funeral on Wednesday.

We bonded one night when we did a face mask! It was a blast! Loved it!

Love y'all so much please send some of he latest drams if your not busy I miss news! Love each one of you,

7 times 70 (June 6, 2016)

Good night.

Story #1
Elder Everett is now my companion and I couldn't be more excited! He is from Alaska? Can you believe? Anchorage? Yeah he's legit! And he has 2 older brothers and a little sister! Their family and himself was born in STG and most of his family is from STG! And most of them live there!!

Story #2
The Coopers are on date!! Yay!! But it's in the later part of July so we're hoping they push it closer to earlier July so I can be there! But we're still very excited!

Story #3
Decided to make it to presidents fireside and so we invited this less active member who served here maybe 10 years ago and he's kinda lost his way so we went up there and after the meeting he decided he needed taco van tacos so we looked around for probably an hour and we told him we needed to be home but he continued to look so we just laughed it off and waited tell he took us home! It was funny I'll send a photo!! FYI I look super fat...... It's cause it's true.........

Story #4
Holly was asked to give the opening prayer at church and she said she had a dream where she was given the things she needed to say the night before and it was a powerful spiritual experience! She is doing really
good! And is still reading and working!!

Story #5
Rachel S.! She is a recent convert that made it to the temple and had such a powerful experience with doing baptism for her dead!!

So we got to do some pottery and I'll send a picture of the thing I made!!

Love you so much! Please let me know what I can do to help you!! When I say "you" I mean each one of you individually.







Beep Bop... Elder Nelson (May 30, 2016)

Yello my people! I bring happy news! I'm staying Catawba for another 6 weeks✈️ 😬

Okay so here's the week in a nut shell.  I would like if you could close your eyes and imagine with me you are on one of those dreamy looking streets where there's trees on both side almost falling on top of you and imagine light mist of rain every where and then every person we talk to says "I'm good I got Jesus" or "I got to the baptist church down the street" after you just told them that no other church has the correct authority then ours..........
That's the week!!!

Jk I did beat an all time high of how many bottles of waters I drank this week it was 20, 16.9oz water bottles.😏.

Elder peterson is leaving to Burlington! And I get elder Everett from STG!!!

Chris is doing better for a minute we thought he was gonna pass but he pushed through! Now we got a service project at his house to show some ward love!!

After teaching some young kids I had to show them how us STG boys do it so I did a Backflip and their minds were blown!!

This is a picture of my desk,..

Last week on pday we went fishing and failed but it was a good time!!

Once again I leave my love with y'all I hope to hear from you this week it uplifts my day!! 😍😍😍😍
