Well this week I had a pretty big trial. A member offered to cut our hair for free and it was by far the worst haircut of my life. So that was a bummer. Luckily there’s a less active in our area that took pity on me and fixed it for free too but there were a few days of shame and now my hair is super super short just in time to come home! I´ll send some pics. Just look at my hair in the picture with the pizza and try not to cringe. You can see the transformation in the pictures.
Other than that this week was good. The persecution continues in this area which is making it hard for me to love the people sometimes. I got hit in the butt this week by a little kid with a slingshot so I basically rank with all the great prophets of old who were stoned for their beliefs!
But I did see this week that when we follow the advice of our priesthood leaders and fulfill their invitations, the Lord really does bless us. I know that this is the Lords work and that He guides it. It´s been really hard for us to get people to church and our president gave us 5 things to do during the week and promised us it would give us more people in church. We tried really hard and had 5 people in church. That was pretty neat!
con amor,
Elder Nixon
