9/11/17 - I'm Over the Moon Excited!

This week was really good. We confirmed Camilo and it was fantastic. The family are refuges from Venezuela,  a country that is falling into a Cuba kinda state and it's horrible. They are so incredible.  I just love them so much.

Elder Oaks is coming to our mission and I'm over the moon excited!!! We are so lucky to have so many Apostles and Prophets and Seventies visit our mission.  That is one of the huge huge pluses about being in Lima. Since our mission has the airport in it it's all chill. They just land and they're here.  I just love how our church is true! It just makes me happy. I can feel the Spirit every time someone reads the Book or Mormon and I know it's true. 

We went shopping and bought a huge avocado. It's the size of a Spanish Book or Mormon which is bigger than one in  ingles - it's huge!!! I'll send a picture of it. Gotta love Peru. We had lunch today with family Fernandez and Camilo. They don't have chairs or anything but we made lunch and ate it  - they are great. The people are what make the church just so great here. We are so lucky to have the gospel. The church is true, God loves you and keep reading the Book of Mormon! It's very important!!

Love,

Elder Nielsen
