"What, a WARD?!" = Clovis, NEW MEXICO


HOLA TODO!

  Well transfer calls came this week, and you heard it, Hermana Neilson is going to a ward for the first time in her mission! I am going to CLOVIS NEW MEXICO!!!!!! I'm not even going to be in texas! And it is an english ward *tears* but I guess if the Lord needs this tall white spanish-speaking hermana there, I will go.  I was kind of bummed about it when I first got the call because Hereford has been BOOMING. And no offense to wards, but I just really like serving in branches! And there's so many spanish people here! So hopefully there's some in Clovis. They opened a spanish sisters area for the first time in 16 months this transfer, so I'm excited for the sisters going there :)) But yea, I'm going to a ward. It is going to be SO weird. And there's like other missionaries in Clovis. Like I've never served around other missionaries! So it's going to definitely be different than what I'm used to, but this will most likely be my last area in the mission. I just can't believe how fast it is going.

  In other news, Rudy got baptized this week!!!! It was so amazing! We barely had any people there cause it's a branch, but the spirit was so strong, and Rudy just looked so happy! So it was awesome. He was then confirmed on Sunday, and now they are working with him on getting the priesthood. So wooooooo! I'm glad I can leave on a good note :))

  We also got to take Laura to the temple on Friday night! It was so fun! She is just so awesome and ahhhhh I just love her! It was  so cool to be able to go with her to the temple for her first time, it really is such an amazing experience to be apart of :)) So that was a fun little road trip!

  Well I hope y'all have a very merry christmas! I am so excited to talk to my family in 7 days!!!! AHHHH I seriously am so excited! I will be in Clovis tomorrow night with Sister Goodmansen. She just got out of training so it should be interesting! We have a mission wide devotional thing tomorrow, so ALL the mission is getting together. They only do this like once a year, so it's like super rare. And it will be fun because I have companions that I haven't seen in 9 months! AH too long. Ok well I love you all so much!!!

con mucho amor,
Hermana Neilson

ps. my new address
