hey family.. i love you guys a bunch.
so this week has been super crazy. i didnt feel like eating tuesday night and i wanted to do a little bit of soul searching and so after planning with elder hernandez and reading a talk from the conference i went outside and just started thinking about everything that the Lord has done for me in so little time it was way cool i had i think about 4 minutes of just thinking and then i got a call from the zone leaders and they told me that my companion and i had transfers...but we both werent going anywhere haha i just laughed and asked him what he needed but he was like no for real. so now there are 4 missionaries here in girasoles(thats my ward) and my new/old companion from the offices(elder quintero) and i are now the zone leaders.. our zone is huge and it includes the missionaries that are all the way out in the mountains but so far its been sweet and we had a conference with the president thursday from 9am to 8pm haha him and all the zone liders haha but yeah so thats new
and today for the first time i played a sport here in mexico..cuz the president has our p days super short but we played basketball and it felt SOOOOOOOO good to run and all that stuff oh my gosh my body just feels so dang good right now haha
but the baptism for rey david was amazing. so so so spiritual. he let me do the honor of baptizing him and i still say that hearing the testimonies of my investigators after their baptism is the absolute best part of the mission. he is such a huge example for me and i know with out a doubt he wil stay strong in the church his whole life.. we still dont have a bishop but our old bishop saw david sunday and came up to us and was congratulated us with our success with him because the bishop knew everything about his life beforehand but yeah an awesome baptism.
so in the scriptures i am studying a ton in mosiah 1 - 5 cuz it talks all about the atonement of Christ. i really want to be able to understand it better. and today i learned alot about the change of heart that we have to have to be able to be called His sons and daughters. i found some awesome scriptures in the book of mormon and in the bible that i liked a lot helaman 14 30 and Ezekiel 11 19 i think but helaman 14 30 is way cool because it is so clear and the Lord straight up tells us I gave you My Son, He suffered for Your sins and if you want to live with Me again Choose the Right!!! haha it doesnt say it like that but when i read that verse thats what i imagine Heavenly Father saying.
So the president has been doing and changing a lot of things so that we can have 100% concentration in the mission and now we have a schedule for that and haha it is definately a schedule that makes us concentrate haha there is hardly anytime for anything else it is so awesome im gonna come back home a complete ñoño (nerd) haha im reading so much and i am totally gonna keep that habit up when i go home.
so i read luke 15 this week and if you all could for family night or something i`d like hear your thoughts about those parables becuase i learned some great principles from them. but i wanna read your comments this next week.
I love you guys so much,
Elder Nunley
