Highs and Lows



Well this week following our conference with Elder Rasband has been awesome and filled with miracles. We´re finding lots of new people every week (our average is 10 for now) I put the subject as highs and lows cuz I learned a lot about that this week on Monday after writing you all. We went to the house of Ayelén, one of our progressing investigators and we talked and she told us that she wanted to get baptized no matter what. We left flying high and went to the house of our other best investigators, the Celestino Family. Well we got chopped down hard. She explained to us how she didn´t like the church and she bagged on the members for a solid 40 minutes before we could get her to quiet down. It was awful. We left and felt pretty down. I felt a new kind of sadness in that moment. Something I had never felt before and I believe it´s the kind of sadness that God must feel when we, his beloved children, chose not to follow Him. I hope I am never the source of that sadness for Him and will do everything to bring Him joy. It´s a good way to live :)

Other than that the work goes on. It´s starting to warm up here so wish me luck. I´m not excited about another summer in this type of heat!!!

con amor,

Elder Nixon
