Thanksgiving?

Well world, if you wanna know what it's like the wake up and go an entire day before realizing it's Thanksgiving, I could tell you. It was a weird feeling in the middle of my night prayer coming to realize that it's Thanksgiving. 

But now as our attention turns to Christmas I just hope you all make the most of this time to turn outward and serve others and just love the world. there is so much good in it and yet so much need for even more. I hope you all determine to be the good the world needs this Holiday season!

This week was a good one. We had transfers today and they were pretty weird for me. They closed the neighboring area and put it in mine. They also made me comps with Elder Mallett who has been in my district from day 1 so we already know each other really well. This time, however, there's not a soul my district who speaks English so it's kinda survival now. So yeah, that's how transfers went. We have an entire city to tract and a TON of walking to do. I also have to move where I live to go to the other pension which is a pain but what you gonna do?

This week we saw some miracles. We have an investigator named Ruben who is progressing so dang fast. Every time we leave him a pamphlet or a part of the Book of Mormon to read, he reads it 2 or 3 times that same night. He's almost stopped smoking in just a week and has changed so much already. The gospel changes lives!!!

Con amor,

Elder Nixon

This is me and a sunset and one of the loca familias that have been progressing so much!
