Hello family!
OKAY WHAT THE WHAT. Dad. Are you a secret prophesier or something crazy!!! I cannot believe that Jacob is being trained by Nick Emery. Isn’t God so great? I tell you guys. God just wants us to be happy here and so what does he do... He makes all our wildest DREAMS come TRUE!!!!!!! AH! That is just too great!!! I am still freaking out.
Okay a little spotlight time: SISTER BROWN. My sweet companion. First off she is from Lehi, Utah. She did track and cross-country in high school and is going to SUU when she gets home. She is literally the BEST PERSON IN THE WHOLE WORLD. I love here more than anything. WE basically die of laughter EVERY SINGLE DAY and WORK HARD! It is the perfect balance. Really. It has been incredible. And we are staying together for another Transfer!!! I think I could stay here in Leipzig with Sister Brown for the rest of my mission...(haha. She is probably like GET ME OUT OF HERE!!) I am pretty crazy... but you all already know that :)
Okay. It is just Birthday Topia at the Nilson home. Dad. I hope you had a good one. James. Before that... How is that crazy kid doing. He should write me. Sabrina. Sweet 16!! Go girl. Drivin and datin! All the dreams beginning! haha And EMI!!! My sweet baby sister who is not even a baby anymore. I told someone here you were 8 the other day... WOW I am looooooooosen it! haha the big 13! That is incredible.
Kates. You are just Golden. I cannot believe that Jacob and I are here in Germany-4 hours away from one another- and you are all back home.
Dad, got released. Wow. That is crazy. But I know that President Taylor, Davis, and Bentley are going to be just amazing. That is incredible. What inspired leaders we have in the church.
This week WAS wonderful! We had a lesson with our investigators Lobsang-he is from India and has NO religious background- He has no idea about God or Jesus Christ. It is all very basic with him. We talked about Jesus Christ this week and who he is. We went through his life with the picture book and told about all the stories and miracles Jesus Christ did. It was so powerful going through the life of Jesus Christ. I love what Lobsang said, he said, He was such an incredible example on a historical level as well as a religious level. And it is so true. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to the earth and helped people. He did everything out of love. He loved us so he came and served others and then in the end died for us. At the end of the lesson we asked him what he thought about Jesus Christ and he said, "Wow, Jesus Christ has such a big heart." It was so pure and childlike. It was incredible to see how humble and submissive Lobsang was. He just soaked everything in and was so willing and open to what we were saying. It was incredible. He then said the closing prayer!! It was so cute. He was like, "dear loving father Jesus lord..." he said every name possible in the beginning. AH! It was so precious. He said the most sincere prayer and then closed it in the name of Jesus Christ Amen. It was such a wonderful example to me of just being completely humble and willingness to see if God really was there.
I know that God is there. He really does love each and every single person in this world. I love being here. I am so happy. The happiest little person here in Germany. I love being here. I love being a missionary.
I hope you all have a great week! Always remember how much God truly knows and cares about each of us! Love you all!!
