🇳🇿 🇳🇿 (On my phone these are British flags)

Hello everyone! I hope you are all enjoy this beautiful June! A lot stuff went on this week, but of course, Elder Nelson is gonna be lame and only write a little bit. As always. Sorry! Time is always such a killer! And writing is hard. But enough excuses, I just write my email now.

We had a fun ward activity this past week that included a cooking contest. The theme was "Meat", and so we made beef sushi. The member we worked with went all out and bought this way expansive beef, so it tasted soooo good. Lots of fun!

Also, I got a new companion! His name is Elder Hemi, he's from New Zealand, but was raised in Japan until he was about 13 years old, so his Japanese and English are perfect. It's been way fun working with him so far, and I look forward to working with him even more. He's a killer missionary, so this should be a good transfer!

One thing that I learned a lot about this week was the power of prayer. There were several times this past week where I had no idea what to do, or how to best accomplish God's will, but I prayed and
almost immediately received help and guidance in ways I'd never have expected. Like, we were waiting for a new investigator to show up to an appointment, but he never came, and I said a silent prayer about what we should do. Almost immediately there was this way cool kid who just came up to us and started talked. We should be meeting with him sometimes this next week! I know that God answers prayers and that He loves His children!

Love you all! Have a great week!
