June 23, 2014 - Letter to Dad - Week 42


Hey Dad!!

Sounds like you had a pretty good week out at the river!  Bummer the rapids weren´t all the way going, but that's sweet you at least had jumping rocks and stuff!  Did you jump off??  I wish I could swim!!   
So anyways this past weekend made it six weeks and we had the changes.  I am staying here in my area, but I'm getting a new companion named Elder Dyer.  He seems like a cool guy, from when I talked to him back in Madrid, but I´ll get to meet him soon because we´ll be going to the airport to pick them up!!  Actually I guess we are leaving very soon!  But anyways I'm excited.  A little nervous, because they also called me to be one of the leaders here, and that means I have a LOT of responsibilities now.  I hope I can get them all done and help my area get better too!   
I rememebr that custard place it was good!  Mom said she just went there last weekend too!!  Did you guys end up meeting up there??  That´s fun.  Mom told me that was the place you took me and kendal when we were all driving back to California!   
That´s a bummer that you have a ton of work, but I guess it's a good thing too!!!  Justin said he isn't doing much this week you can try and recruit him maybe??  Good luck with all that... That´s funny kara started out the same at BYU!  It´s really just how everyone lives there, especially the first couple of weeks, so we´ll see if she still loves it all after her first month.  She told me something about how maybe she would be able to transfer to fall semester as well, so that would be awesome!!!  I hope she can so we are there same time.   
Not a whole ton of stuff happened this week.  I went and got to know some litte villages that are part of my area, and I think I'm going to try and work in them more with my new companion.  There are a lot of people out there, and we will be working right along the beach, which makes it more fun even if we can't go in and swim!!  Had an investigator named Greg come to church yesterday and I think he liked it.  Elder Lopez got called on to give a talk without any preparation in sacrament meeting, and he ended up doing really well!  I hope they don't do that to me when I leave!!  haha I'm guessing I still have another 3 months here though!  But we´ll see how it goes!!  Hope you have a great week dad!  Good luck with work and the calling and everything!  Miss you guys!  I´ll tell you all about life with my new companion next week!  Love you!

Nate

P.S.  I wrote your email or almost all of it a few hours ago and then I had to go pick up my companion from the airport.. . He´s from arizona!!  I´ll try and send a picture!
