This week was kind of cool because I got a new companion Elder Cottle. He an my old companion switched areas. He´s a really good missionary and almost has a year and a half in the mission. They tell me that´s when you reach your peak and then it´s all down hill. He´s super gutsy though because he is the only companion I have had who knocks on doors and fights Testigos.

Something really weird that I don´t know if they did in your missions but they do here is when you go home you ¨die¨ and if you don´t work much because your ending your mission your ¨dying¨or ¨dead¨. I was really spooked when I first heard them taking about it. ¨who died!¨ Is it the same in your missions?

I told Mindy but this week we got so many wierd desserets. The first one we got which I heard is super popular in Casas Grandes is Philidelphia Cream Queso with Salsa Jam and crackers. We also had white bread pie and peanut butter on bread. 

We have a really small pool of investigators so this week we spent almost all week contacting. On Friday all of our appointments fell through so we spent all day out side. That was rough. Before (dad don´t listen) when we did home teaching and we were knocking on doors I prayed that they wouldn´t be home and we would be good for the month. Now I pray that they are home because we don´t go home till the sun goes down.

So one of the days we were contacting we came across a group of kids playing futbol in street so we played with them. It was a lot of fun but for some reason I didn´t do so well. I think they were the sons of Messy (or however you say it). 

We have an investigator that´s getting baptized this Saturday. It´s really awesome to finally have success. It makes all of the walking and talking and freezing worth it. What´s even cooler is that her fiance is going to baptize her. 

I hope you have a wonderful week. I hope school and church and work and church and all that you DO is going good. It´s fun being a MISSIONARY but its a lot of WORK so it is always fun to hear from yáll.

Love 
Elder Nelson
