So this week has been a pretty sweet week. We went on 1 1/2 exchanges. The first of which was in Logansport and it was way fun. I didn't get to see or do anything really special but it was good enough just being there and work in an area that I love. The next day we went to Frankfort and worked there and it was a lot of fun. We did a lot of contacting former investigators and one of them remembered who I was and where I was from. I only met him once on an exchange and that was more than a year ago now. That day was a lot of fun. We got into 2 homes and taught the Restoration and now there are potentials that the new missionaries will be able to go and work with. On Thursday we had President interviews and we decided to train the missionaries as they came. It was a lot of fun and probably one of the fastest days on my mission. Elder Jones and I trained all the missionaries 1 on 1 and each training was about something completely different and yes we even trained the Sister missionaries 1 on 1. We went into the chapel, with Elder Jones training on one end and myself on the other. On Friday we had Zone Leader Council and it was sweet as usual. We were able to meet and exceed our mission baptismal goal for December, we helped 22 people come to Christ. It was a landmark occasion, it was the first time in years that we as a mission have met our goal let alone exceeded it and on top of that we broke the average for baptisms in the months of December. Then we set our new baptismal goal for January at 25, and get this the very first baptism of the year was on the first day of the year and he was in on of the areas in our Zone.
My time is short but I have to tell you about our Sunday. We went to one of the areas that we cover and it was awesome and they love missionary work there. Get this they picked us up for church and then had our whole day planned out with things to do then they fed us and brought us home. I really like that area and the members that belong there.
The new year has started off Amazing and I love you all,
Elder Nelson
