On set of "The Easter Video:2022"  |
This week had some pretty interesting experiences for me.
In the last few weeks I've been trying to find my copy of the Book of Mormon. I've used it personally for years and it's the copy that I've used for reading the entirety of the book while on my mission. Needless to say, it's pretty dear to me and has a ton of markings that have helped me teach countless times. Well one day I prayed and asked for some miracles. I wanted to be able to teach like I usually can from the Book of Mormon and to find some new people to teach.
Well this week I've received answers to these prayers! I felt that while I'm still looking for my copy, I've started a new one. It's been really great going through it and marking scriptures that are important to me and I've found are really great to teach with! So far it's been working really well!
Another miracle! I was looking through older records of people that have been by missionaries in our area. One of the only people who actually have an address listed (most people don't respond if we call or text) so I just decided we should stop by and see if he's interested in hearing from us. So we went to his house and met him! He was actually really happy to see us! He said he was just about to leave and see a movie with his son but he wants us to text him about a time we could come back. When I got back in the car I went berserk 
It was so amazing! We're going back to see him soon and I only hope for the best

I had some other really great experiences this week while finding and teaching people, having the Book of Mormon class, and stopping by some old friends like Barry! But the best part of my week is just the reminder that God knows us and He answers our prayers.
One of my favorite scriptures is from the Pearl of Great Price. It's Moses 1:39 "For behold, this is my work and my glory-to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man."
I can be confident as a missionary that right now, I'm doing the Lords greatest work. If there's something I need to help me with His work, then He'll give it to me.
Hope you all had a great week! Message me with any questions, comments, concerns, or anything. See ya!
Love, Elder Nielsen
P.s. Another highlight of my week was I got to play basketball with Elder Owen!
